PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Portable Power Kits are designed to be used for pushing, spreading, and pressing of vehicle body panels as well as
various component parts and assemblies. Rams are rated from 4 to 10 tons respectively.
⚠WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or property damage, ensure that the rated working pressure of
each pressurized attachment be equal to or greater than the rated working pressure developed by the hydraulic pump.
Always check connections before using. Alteration of these products is strictly prohibited. Use only those adapters and
attachments provided and approved by the manufacturer.
Note, when extension tubes and/or offset attachments are used, the rated capacity is always reduced by 50% for each
tube or offset attachment connected

2. Securely screw the Hose into the Hydraulic Ram.(See Figure A)
Figure A
3. Insert the Pump Handle into the receptacle located at the top of the Pump Unit.
4. To attach the Rubber Head, the Extension Bars, the Male Connector, and the Flat Base to the Hydraulic Ram, see

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TO OPERATE THE HYDRAULIC PUMP UNIT
1. Position the Pump Unit on a stable, flat and level surface close to the damaged area.
2. Firmly close the Release Valve Stem by turning it clockwise and pump the Pump Handle to apply pressure.
3. Turn the Release Valve Stem counterclockwise to release the pressure.
4. The Pump Unit may be positioned horizontally or vertically. When using the hydraulic unit in a vertical position, always
keep the hose end of the hydraulic unit downward.
TO REPAIR FRAME DAMAGE
1. Determine which direction the frame needs to be bent.
2. Remove any obstructions that could be damaged or are in the way.
3. Connect the Flat Base to the stationary side of the Hydraulic Ram and connect the appropriate attachment to the
pushing end of the Stroke Ram.
4. Position the Hydraulic Ram so that the Flat Base is resting against a frame member opposite the damaged area. It
must also be in line with the direction in which the damaged area needs to be pushed.
5. Aim the pushing end towards the area that needs to be repaired and slowly apply pressure with the Pump Unit.
6. Once contact on either end has been made, step away as far as possible and continue to slowly apply pressure to the
damaged area until the desired bend has been made.
CAUTION: Keep hands away from contact areas and tight spaces. The Portable Power Kit may slip and cause injury.
7. When the damaged area has been bent to the desired position, slowly turn the Release Valve Stem on the Pump Unit
in a counterclockwise direction to release the hydraulic pressure and remove the Hydraulic Ram.
TO REPAIR BODY DAMAGE
1. Determine which direction the body panel should be moved.
2. Remove any obstructions that could be damaged or are in the way.
3. Connect the appropriate attachments to the Hydraulic Ram.
Note: When repairing larger body panel dents such as a dented door, fender or quarter-panel, the proper pushing
attachment will be the Rubber Head.
4. Position the Hydraulic Ram so that the Flat Base is resting against a frame or a sturdy body part opposite the
damaged area. It must also be in line with the direction in which the damaged area needs to be pushed. Make sure
the body part is stronger than the area to be bent or it may be damaged. A block of wood or a towel may be used to
protect the body part.
5. Aim the pushing end towards the area that needs to be repaired and slowly apply pressure with the Pump Unit.
6. Once contact on either end has been made, step away as far as possible and continue to slowly apply pressure to the
damaged area until the desired bend has been made.
7. When the damaged area has been bent to the desired position, slowly turn the Release Valve Stem on the Pump Unit
in a counterclockwise direction to release the hydraulic pressure and remove the Hydraulic Ram.

TO USE THE SPREADER WEDGE
1. Determine which direction the frame needs to be bent.
2. Remove any obstructions that could be damaged or are in the way.
3. Place Spreader Wedge so that the hinged arm is resting against the part to be moved and the stationary arm is resting
against a non-movable base. Hold the spreader Ram in position and apply the Pump Unit pressure.
4. Once contact on either end has been made, step away as far as possible and continued to slowly apply pressure to
the damaged area until the desired bend has been made.
5. When the damaged area has been bent to the desired position, slowly turn the Release Valve Stem on the Pump Unit
in a counterclockwise direction to release the hydraulic pressure and remove the Hydraulic Ram.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Determine which direction the frame needs to be bent.
2. Before each use, examine the general condition of the tool. Inspect the tool and its accessories for damage. Check
for loose bolts. misalignment, binding of moving parts, broken parts and any other condition that may affect its safe
operation.
Do not use a damaged tool or its damaged accessories
3. When the Portable Puller Set is not in use, the Pump Unit should be stored with the Release Valve Stem open.
4. After extensive use, the hydraulic oil supply should be replaced to ensure longer equipment life.
5. To check the oil level:
a. Set Pump Unit flat on a level surface.
b. Remove the Screw with its attached dipstick.
c. The oil level should be near the bottom of the opening. If required, add high grade hydraulic oil
d. Replace the Screw.
6. To bleed the pump:
a. Check the oil level and fill if necessary, following procedures for checking the oil level.
b. Firmly close the release valve stem by turning it clockwise.
c. To bleed the pump, press the tip of the coupling against a hard surface and pump the pump handle.
d. Continue pumping until the hydraulic fluid coming out from the end of the coupler tip is free of air bubbles.
e. Recheck the oil level and add oil if necessary.
f. Turn the release valve stem counterclockwise to release the pressure in the pump and hose.
