When the hydraulic pumps are
set up, care needs to be taken
that they are not impaired by
extremely strong temperature
changes.
The device is lled with
hydraulic uid. These hydraulic
uids can be detrimental to
health if they are swallowed
or their vapours are inhaled.
Direct contact with the skin
should be avoided for the same
reason. Also, when handling
hydraulic uids, note that they
can negatively aect biological
systems.
When operating and/or storing
the device, make sure that the
function and the safety of the
device are not impaired by
strong external temperature
dierences or that the device is
damaged. Keep in mind that the
device can also heat up when it
is continuously used.

WARNING / CAUTION / ATTENTION!
The device is specied exclusively for the purpose represented in the operating
instructions (see Chapter "Proper use"). Any use that diers or goes beyond this is
considered improper. The manufacturer/supplier shall not be held liable for damages
resulting from improper use. The risk shall be borne solely by the user.
Proper use also includes heeding the operating instructions and complying with the inspection
and maintenance requirements.
Never work in a fatigued or intoxicated state!
3. Intended use
Accessories and spare parts for the rescue equipment can be obtained from your authorised
LUKAS dealer!
The LUKAS hand and foot pumps are used for the operation of LUKAS rescue devices.
They can be used as an additional or replacement drive source along with the LUKAS
hydraulic unit (e.g. in areas at risk for explosion).
Use with equipment of other manufacturers is possible, but requires technical testing and
approval of LUKAS on a case-by-case basis.
WARNING / CAUTION / ATTENTION!
Always note the product limitations with respect to operating pressure, load limit
values and operating conditions. The operating pressure should not be higher
than the lowest maximum operating pressure of any system components.
The operating pressure should NEVER be set higher than that which is specied
in the "Technical Data" chapter. A higher setting may cause property damage
and/or injuries.
Make sure that the usable capacity of the hydraulic pump (see chapter "Technical
Data") is sucient for operating the connected cylinders or devices.
The required hydraulic uid operating quantity can be found in the chapter
"Technical Data" or in the operating instructions of the devices to be operated.

5. Functional description
5.1 Base pump
All LUKAS hydraulic pumps of this series are two-speed, i.e. they have two operating speeds:
• A high speed in the low pressure range (LP) for fast extension of the cylinder or device
while unloaded
• A low speed in the high pressure range (HP) for controlled extension of the cylinder or
device while loaded
The switch from low pressure (LP) to high pressure (HP) is automatic at the factory setting
for changeover pressure (see chapter "Technical Data").
A pressure port "P" with a G1/4" thread and a return port "T" with an M10 thread are directly
available as ports on the pump.
To connect rescue equipment, adapter blocks must be installed (see subchapter "Adapter
blocks" for more information). In the case of the pumps are sold by LUKAS, one of these
adapter blocks is always included as standard equipment and is already installed.
Of course, the installed adapter blocks may be replaced with other ones. However, you must
contact an authorised LUKAS dealer or contact LUKAS directly.
The retractable handle of the LUKAS hydraulic pump combines low required pumping force
with compact dimensions for storage and transport.
In addition, the LUKAS hand and foot pumps for rescue equipment are equipped with a base
plate to ensure a higher stability during operation.

The LUKAS foot pump and LUKAS hand pump are basically identical in their design and
function. Merely the hand lever and the drain valve were replaced by a foot pump lever.
The foot pump lever can not be retracted, however is equipped with a return spring that
will move the foot pump lever automatically into its upper position after the lock (6)
has been opened (refer to image above).
Therefore it has not to be pulled upward during the pumping procedure as with the hand
lever.
To avoid possible injuries secure the foot pump lever with
your hand before unlocking it. Holding the pump lever down
will prevent it from jumping up after the locking bolt was
shifted into release position.
Installation, connection of devices and maintenance will be carried out
according to the description in this operating instructions.
Unlike with the hand pump, merely the pumping procedure is foot-operated.

6. Connection options for rescue equipment
ATTENTION!
Make sure to store all plugs, screw plugs and/or dust caps in a way that
prevents them from getting dirty or lost.
After completion of the work, seal o all lines using screw plugs and/or dust
caps to prevent contamination of the hydraulic pump.
When connecting lines to the hydraulic pump, we recommend positioning it
vertically so that the ports point upward. This reduces the danger of hydraulic
uid escaping.
6.1 Fittings
The hose lines are connected via ttings to the hydraulic pump.
1.
2.
1. First remove the closure caps from
the ttings.
2. Then, you can connect the hose lines
to the ttings and tighten them with a
tightening torque of MA= 40 Nm.
ATTENTION!
The return hose must always be connected at the "T" port of the
connection block.
The supply hose line must instead be connected at the "P" port.
