Installation and Setup Instructions

Step 1: Position the crimper on a sturdy professional workbench in awell-lit area. Workbench should be able to support the crimper weight of 275 lbs. Step 2: Step 3: Locate the crimper close enough to the edge of thework surface so that professional hose will not contact the bench or work surface while crimping. There must be enough clearance for the hose to align perpendicular with the cone base, or the dies will not seat properly and crimps will not be accurate. Check the oil level in the electric pump and fill ifnecessary to approximately 1
1 /
2 " below the fill plug. See Page3 for location of fill plug. Only use ISO Viscosity Grade 46 hydraulic oil. Step 4: Plug the crimper directly into a 220V, 15 amp walloutlet. If using the optional 1HP electric pump, plug the crimper directly into a 110V, 15 amp circuit. Caution: Donot run the crimper on an extension cord or from portable power sources, as low voltage can damage the motor.
CompressionRing PressurePlate Step 5: Place the pressure plate, any die set and thecompression ring onto the bottom flange of the crimper, in the order shown. Step 6: Slide the pusher onto the stud of the hydraulic ram. Step 7: The PC150 crimper has been factory-calibratedprior to shipment. Goodyear recommends a calibration check prior to first-time operation to ensure that the crimper is operating properly.
