Make sure the press has enough press force for
the intended application.
The press must only be used for the intended
working process. Any other use is considered to
be a not intended application. The manufacturer
is not liable for damages arising from use that is
not as intended - this is at the risk of the user.
The permission for an application not mentioned
here must be agreed with TOX®PRESSOTECH-
NIK.
The small presses of the series TOX®-FinePress
are built exclusively for industrial applications.
Conditions for use
Ambient temperature
The operation of the TOX-press is
only permitted within Tmin = 10°C
and Tmax = 60°C.
When operated outside these tem-
perature limits, function troubles or
sealing damages may occur.
Preparation of compressed air
The machine must only be used
with filtered and dried compressed
air. The max. admissible particle
size is 40 µm.
When operated with unfiltered com-
pressed air, a premature damage
of the sealings may occur.
The machine can also be operated
with slightly oiled compressed air.
In this case, it is absolutely neces-
sary to adjust the lubrication unit to
an economical setting.
Special working environment
If you want to use the machine in a
special working environment (e.g.
outdoor or in dusty or humid envi-
ronment, in food industry or under
special chemical or physical condi-
tions), please contact our service
department and ask for the condi-
tions.
Storage conditions
Store the press in a dry and dust-proof place.
Cover the machine with an applicable dust
cover. Store the machine at an ambient temper-
ature between -10 and 60°C.

Pneumatic press PFHL/PFHW
14 OM 45.PFHL-PFHW.201803.en
Press functioning
The working ram at presses of the series TOX®-
FinePress PFHL / PFHW is moved out by a hand
lever via a knuckle joint. If the limit switch is
reached at this position, a pneumatic power
stroke of 6 mm is activated after pressing the
start button at the lever grip. After resetting the
lever or releasing the start button, the return
stroke of the ram is initiated.
The pneumatic cylinder is mounted directly to the
press frame.
The piston of the pneumatic cylinder generates
a power which is proportional to the pressure.
The nominal force is reached a the maximum op-
erating pressure of 6 bar. At proportionally de-
creasing force it is, however, possible to operate
the presses up to approx. 3 bar (see compressed
air / press force table).
This press series provides an integrated control
system including maintenance unit.
A ball monorail guidance system with a linear
guided working ram ensures the precise guid-
ance of the tool.
Due to their manifold shifting and adjusting pos-
sibilities, the machines of series TOX®-Fine-
Press can be easily adapted to the desired ap-
plications.
Technical data, machine dimen-
sions and description
The technical data can be found in
chapter 1.
Detailed information on machine
dimensions, a brief description of
the press series and of the availa-
ble accessories can be found in
type sheet 'TOX®-FinePress'.

or at add-on parts.
No unauthorized persons must stay
within the danger area.
Noise protection
For noise protection we recom-
mend to place a felt or foam mat
(approx. 1 cm) between the press
frame and the base frame and/or
the table (not obligatory).
Screw-on the press
Before starting operation, the press
must be screwn to the base frame
(option) or to a solid table (e.g.
work bench). Otherwise the opera-
tion of the press is not permitted
Supplied tools
Under the removable top cover of
the press frame, a set of Allan keys,
an additional release spring as well
as the crank for the height adjust-
ment can be found.
Mounting the press
The assembly depends on the type of the press.
The mounting dimensions can be found in type
sheet 'TOX®-FinePress'.
Use an appropriate lifting gear to place the
press on the base frame.
Align the press on the frame.
Fix the press on the provided base frame or
table.
Mounting with base frame (option)
Mount the base frame according to the sepa-
rate mounting instructions.
