STEP 4
(Cable Installation)
IMPORTANT! Do not damage the chrome cylinder rod during this process. This can ruin the seals
of the cylinder resulting in fluid leakage
1. Inspect cylinder nut and tighten if necessary. Be sure to have at least 4-6 threads past the nylon
on the nut.
2. Inspect cables to ensure proper lengths. All cables should have ID tags showing proper cable
lengths. (See Table on page 11 for proper lengths.)
3. Make sure both the cylinder flange plates a e installed with the thin plate backing the nut.
4.
In order to install the cables it is necessary to first remove the cylinder port plugs, then use
an air blow gun or come along to extend the cylinder.
5. Place the M18 washer and locknut on the threaded end of the cable hand tight. Take the smaller
plug end of the cable and begin to route it according to the cable routing guide on the previous
page making sure to start the process at the top of the correct column.
6.
The threaded end of the cable will end up at the top of each column. Make sure to route the
cable on the inside of the slack cable safety as shown in figures 1-2 on the previous page.
Run the cable between the slots on the 2 flange plates resting the back of the plug end
against the large flange plate as shown in figur
e 1-3.
7.
After the routing of all the cables has been completed install the 8 cable stop plates with the
provided M8 x 16mm hex head bolts, M8 flat washers and the M8 spring washers.
(See Figures 1-4 and 1-5 on the previous page)
NOTE: The cables will remain loose until start up is completed later in this manual.
STEP 5
( Power Unit Installation )
1.
Mount the power unit to the mounting bracket using the M8 x 25mm hex bolts and nylon nuts
then fill the eservoir with 10 quarts of 10-wt non foaming hydraulic oil. IMPORTANT: Use only a
dedicated 120V/20 Amp circuit system and, if necessary, a 12 gauge extension cord.
(See Fig. 9, next page.)
STEP 6
(Routing Hydraulic Hoses)
1.
Install the one O-ring style 90-degree fitting in the power unit port that has the plastic plug in it.
It is not necessary to use Teflon tape on O-ring fittings. Install one of the pneumatic push-t
connect 90-degree fittings with teflon tape in the power unit port with the Allen set screw.
2.
Install the JIC straight bulkhead fitting inside the 1/2" hole on the cylinder runway furthest f om
the power unit. DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE on JIC flared ends.
3. Install the push-to-connect straight bulkhead fitting inside the 1/2” hole on the cylinder runway
closest to the power unit.
4.
Install the standard 90-degree fitting at the cylinder port furthest from the power unit making
