Owner's manual

1. Pressure compensated pump set to
pressure compensate at 2500 psi.
2. Minimum volume of 20 gpm. 35 gpm for
top performance.
3. 1” minimum Pressure line. 1 1/4”
Pressure line if the power unit is located
more than 100’ apart from the HawkJaw.
The hose working pressure must be 3000
psi or greater.
4. 1 1/4” minimum Tank line. 500 psi
minimum hose working pressure.
5. Hawk approved quick disconnects [Male:
Part # 061-H52 (MQD). Female: Part
# 061-H53 (FQD)]. Initial quick disconnects
supplied with the HawkJaw.
6. Hydraulic power unit located in a clean,
dry, ventilated area.
7. Enough slack in the lines for the Hawk-
Jaw to move from its rest position
to the drill
pipe connection to the mousehole
WARNING
The HawkJaw is a closed center system which
must have a pressure compensated volume
controlled power unit. If the only available hy-
draulic power unit is constant volume, then the
optional hydraulic converter kit (Part # 061-J80) is
required. Running the HawkJaw with a constant
volume hydraulic power unit may result in bodily
injury and will cause damage to the HawkJaw and
to the hydraulic power unit.
WARNING
The HawkJaw must receive clean hydraulic uid.
Running the HawkJaw without a Hawk approved
lter (Part # 061-H25) and installed lter element
(Part # 061-H25A) voids the warranty and severely
shortens component life.
