OPERATION
WARNING
DO NOT HANDLE PRESSURIZED HOSES. Escaping oil
under pressure can penetrate the skin,
causing serious injury. If oil is injected under the skin, see a
doctor immediately.
Operate the hydraulic pump to advance and retract the cylinder.
Some single-acting cylinders are spring-return, others are load return. The speed of
retraction is affected by the length of the hose and other restrictions in the line. Double-
acting cylinders are powered in both directions by the pump.
The cylinder stop ring is designed to take the full load. However, to reduce cylinder
wear, use less than full stroke when possible.
MAINTENANCE
1. Use dust caps when cylinders are disconnected from the hose. Keep entire
cylinder clean to prolong cylinder life.
2. Store cylinders up-right to prevent seal distortion.
