SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•During assembly or if the press is moved, ALWAYS use a lifting appliance -
crane or hoist etc., do not man handle.
• The press MUST BE located on firm level ground, or a sturdy workbench, with
adequate light. The operator must never work in his/her own shadow.
• Before applying a load, be certain that all press bed support pins are fully
engaged, and the hydraulic ram is fully located into the ram mount. Ensure
also that hydraulic hoses and couplings are completely sound.
• Before use always ensure the workpiece is firmly secure and stable.
• Always clean spills of hydraulic oil immediately as this can be extremely
dangerous in a workshop environment.
• Do not exceed the rated capacity.
• Do not allow any person, who is inexperienced in the use of hydraulic presses,
to use the machine unless they are under direct supervision.
3
• Do not allow anyone to work directly in front of the machine when it is in use.
• Never tamper with the machine. The safety valve is calibrated and sealed at
the factory, do not attempt to change these settings.
•UseONLY the recommended hydraulic oil.
• Never use the machine for any purpose other than that for which it is
designed.
• Components of this press are specially designed to withstand the rated
capacity. Do not substitute bolts, pins, or any other components.
• Always apply the load on the centre of ram plunger. Offset loads can
damage the ram or ram mount and may cause work piece to eject.
• Before operating, check for signs of cracked welds, bent bed pins, loose or
missing bolts, or any other structural damage. Do not operate if any of these
conditions exist. Have repairs made only by authorised service centres.
• Remove all loads from press bed before attempting to adjust bed height.
Beware of possible falling bed.
• Press only on a work piece supported by the press bed.
• When using accessories such as arbor plates, be certain they are centered
on press bed, and are in full contact with the bed.
• Parts being pressed may splinter, shatter, or be ejected from the press. Due to
varied applications, it is your responsibility to always use adequate guards,
wear eye protection and heavy protective clothing when operating this press.
• Keep hands and fingers out of the press and away from the parts that may
pinch and shift.
• It is the owners responsibility to keep warning decals legible and intact.
Replacement decals may be obtained from Clarke International Spare Parts
Dep’t.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in damage to the equipment, or
failure resulting in property damage, personal, or even fatal injury.
• NEVER operate the ram without the bed locating pins fully in place.
• DO NOT use extension tubes on the pump handle. Excessive effort can cause
severe damage.

ASSEMBLY

A. CSA10F
Fig.1
HYDRAULIC PUMP/RAM OPERATION
Ensure the press and its components
suffered no damage during transit.
Should any damage be apparent,
contact your Clarke dealer
immediately.
1. Attach the feet and foot struts
to the side supports using the
nuts, bolts and washers
provided, leaving them finger
tight.
2. Raise the assembly and rock it
to ensure that no part is under
stress and that the structure is
completely stable before
tightening all nuts securely.
3. Feed the ram assembly down
through the hole in the top
plate and screw it fully into the
threaded hole in the bottom
plate. The pressure gauge at
this point should be facing the
front.
4. Attach the pump assembly to
the frame by hooking the front
edge into the recess in one
end of the pump platform and
securing at the opposite end
with the screws provided.
Finally, screw on the hose
assembly to the ram inlet.
Your Hydraulic Press is now ready
for use.
1. Bolt the feet to the side
members using the nuts
bolts and washers provided.
2. Bolt on the top and bottom
plates in the manner shown
in fig. 2 , ensuring the bottom
plate is that with the
threaded hole at its centre.
Do not fully tighten the nuts.
3. Feed the ram assembly
down through the hole in
the top plate and screw it
fully into the threaded hole
in the bottom plate. The
pressure gauge at this point
should be facing the front.
Centralise the ram between
the top rails before
tightening the securing bolts
It is strongly recommended that
the Bench Press be securely
bolted to a sturdy workbench
Fig.2
The pump is provided with handwheel , which opens or closes a valve in the pump
to raise the ram or lower it under pressure.
Turn the handwheel clockwise and pump the handle to operate (or lower) the
ram. Turning the handwheel anticlockwise releases the pressure and the ram will
rise.
HYDRAULIC PUMP/RAM OPERATION

B. CSA10B
OPERATION
1. Position the bed to the desired height, so as it will be as close as possible to the
ram when the workpiece is mounted.
Raise one side of the bed, and insert a pin into a locating hole directly
beneath the bed. Repeat the process at the other side, until the bed is level
and at the desired height, with the pins fully ‘home’.
2. The workpiece is placed on top of the bed, or on top of the arbour, or clover
leaf, plate and must be completely stable. To achieve this you must use
packing or shims where required.
NOTE: Any packing pieces or shims used, MUST be capable of withstanding the
extreme pressure that will be brought to bear, and MUST be of sufficient size with
sufficient surface contact, so as to avoid the possibility of slipping or springing
taking place. Mating surfaces MUST be horizontal so that the force being exerted
will be vertical and NOT at an angle.
3. Two Mandrels are provided, either of which should be screwed to the end of
the Ram, depending upon the size of workpiece bearing surface. One of
these is ‘stepped’ and is shown fitted at B1, Figs.1 and 2. The other has a larger
bearing surface area and is shown at B2.
3. Turn the Pump Handwheel, fully clockwise and pump the handle to bring the
ram very lightly into contact with the workpiece.
Manoeuvre the workpiece so that the desired point of contact is directly
beneath the centre of the ram.
4. When satisfied that the workpiece is correctly lined up and is completely
stable in that position, slowly pump the handle so that the ram begins to exert
pressure on the workpiece.
Continue to pump the handle, whilst standing to the side of the press (DO
NOT stand directly in front of the work), and constantly monitor the process,
ensuring the ram and work remain completely in line, and there is no risk of
slipping.
5. When the process is complete, turn the Pump Handwheel anticlockwise to
release ram pressure

MAINTENANCE
A Visual inspection must be made before each use of the press, checking for
leaking hydraulic fluid, and damaged, loose or missing parts.
Owners and/or users should be aware that repair of this equipment may require
specialised knowledge and facilities. It is recommended that a thorough annual
inspection of the press be made and that any defective parts, decals or warning
labels be replaced with genuine Clarke parts.
Any press which appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn,
or operates abnormally SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE until necessary repairs
are made.
• Periodically check the press frame to make sure all bolts are tight and inspect
for cracked welds, bent, loose or missing parts.
• Periodically check the hydraulic connections for possible leaks. Replace or
properly repair damaged or leaking hydraulic components before using.
• Periodically apply a light smear of oil to the moving parts and the bed support
pins.
• If oil leaks, caused by a loose union/connection etc., have been repaired,
check the hydraulic pump oil level, by removing the pump from its mounting,
holding it vertically on its nose, and removing the filler/dipstick, shown at ‘A’,
Fig.1. Top up if necessary to the level on the dipstick, with CLARKE Hydraulic
Oil, Part No. 3050830 only.
This operation is carried out with the ram fully retracted.
• Replace the Hydraulic oil every TWO years. This operation requires the
dismantling of the hydraulic system, for which you should consult your CLARKE
dealer.
