4/37
WARNING: Wear proper personal protective gear when operating hydraulic equipment.
DANGER: To avoid personal injury, keep hands and feet away from work-piece during operation.
WARNING: Do not exceed equipment ratings. Overloading causes equipment failure and possible
personal injury. The pump tools are designed for a maximum pressure of 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm2).
Do not connect a jack or cylinder to a pump. Never set the relief valve to a higher pressure than the
maximum rated pressure of the pump. Higher settings may result in equipment damage and/or per-
sonal injury.
WARNING: The system operating pressure must not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest rated
component in the system. Install pressure gauges in the system to monitor operating pressure.
CAUTION: Avoid damaging hydraulic hose. Avoid sharp bends and kinks when routing hydraulic
hoses. Using a bent or kinked hose will cause severe back-pressure. Sharp bends and kinks will inter-
nally damage the hose, leading to premature hose failure. Do not drop heavy objects on hose. A sharp
impact may cause internal damage to hose wire strands. Applying pressure to a damaged hose may
cause it to rupture.
IMPORTANT: Do not lift hydraulic equipment by the hose or swivel couplers. Use the carrying handle
or other means of safe transport.
CAUTION: Keep hydraulic equipment away from ames and heat. Excessive heat will soften seals,
resulting in uid leaks. Heat also weakens hose materials. For optimum performance do not expose
equipment to temperatures of 65° C (170° F) or higher. Protect hoses and cylinders from weld spatter.
SAFE AND CORRECT USE
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
WORKING PRESSURE

LUBRICATION
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
INSTALL HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
Use only tools, hoses and accessories rated at 10,000 PSI
(700kg/cm2). Remove the shipping plugs from the ports
to connect your coupling(s) or hose(s) to manifold. Use
1.5 wraps of Teon tape (or suitable thread sealant) on all
threads, leaving the rst complete thread free of tape to
ensure no foreign matter enters the hydraulic circuit.
When making connections with quick disconnect couplings,
make sure the couplings are fully engaged. Threaded connec-
tions such as ttings, gauges, etc. must be securely tightened
and leak free.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Loose or improperly threaded ttings can be potentially dangerous if pressurized;
however, severe over tightening can cause premature thread failure. Fittings need
to be tightened secure & leak free. Never hold or stand directly in line with any
hydraulic connections while pressurizing. Never grab, touch or in any way come in
contact with a hydraulic pressure leak. Escaping oil can penetrate the skin and a
serious injury can result.
CAUTION: Do not subject the hose to potential hazards such as sharp surfaces, extreme heat or
heavy impact. Do not allow the hose to kink or twist. Inspect each hose for wear before it is used.
ELECTRICAL
Check for proper electrical supply before connecting. Be sure the electrical connection is grounded.
Check that your power supply agrees with the motor nameplate and/or TorcUP model decal.
NOTE: MOTOR MAY SPARK. DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE OR IN THE
PRESENCE OF CONDUCTIVE LIQUIDS.
1. Do not use a power or extension cord that is damaged or has exposed wires.
2. All single phase motors come equipped with a three prong grounding type plug to t the proper
grounded type electrical outlet. Do not use a two prong ungrounded extension cord as the
pump’s motor must be grounded.
CONNECTING HYDRAULIC TOOLS
Use only tools, hoses and accessories rated at 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm2). When making connections
with quick disconnect couplings, make sure the couplings are fully engaged. Threaded connections
such as ttings, gauges, etc. must be securely tightened and leak free. Use 1.5 wraps of Teon tape (or
suitable thread sealant) on all threads, leaving the rst complete thread free of tape to ensure no foreign
matter enters the hydraulic circuit.
STARTING THE PUMP FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Check for any leaks, repair as needed.
2. When rst plugged in the solenoid makes 4 “clicks” relieving any pressure still in the system.
When the button to turn off the pump is pressed it goes through the same sequence for the
same reason. It is then safe to remove tool and hoses.
3. Shift pendant to the advance position to advance tool and release to retract tool. Look for
movement in tool, check for any leaks, repair as needed.
CAUTION: Never operate the pump without tool movement for more than 1 minute. Leaving the valve
in the advance or retract position without the tool’s piston rod moving will overheat the oil.
CAUTION: Never disconnect or connect any hydraulic hoses or ttings without rst unloading the tool,
then unplug the electrical cord of the pump. Open manual relief valve to assure that the system has
been depressurized.

OPERATION PROCEDURES
PRESSURE TORQUE SETTING
1. See torque wrench instructions for amount of pressure required
to produce desired torque.
2. Loosen lock nut and back out relief valve to prevent unintended
pressure builds up.
3. Turn pump on. Press and hold the “ADVANCE” switch, and read
pressure gauge.
4. While holding the switch, turn relief valve in (clockwise)
to increase pressure or out (counter-clockwise)
to decrease maximum pressure. Repeat until
correct pressure is obtained.
5. Tighten lock nut on the relief valve to maintain setting.
6. Run pump several times to test this setting before
setting tool on the nut.
AFTER COMPLETING THE JOB
Before disconnecting hoses, ttings, etc., rst be sure the tool is unloaded and retracted, then unplug
the power cord. The pump is designed to cycle the valve upon powering off to release pressure.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Completely change the hydraulic oil and clean the intake screen and magnet (located in the reservoir)
twice a year. If equipped, change the external oil lter twice a year (Use TorcUP oil only, Model # AO1,
1 gallon). Change the oil more frequently when used in extremely dusty areas or when the oil has been
overheated. Using oil other than TorcUP Brand may void the pump’s warranty.
The following conditions require more frequent oil changes.
•Rigorous duty, where oil temperature may reach 150˚ F.
•High humidity environment and extreme changes in temperature that can result in condensation
inside the reservoir.
•Dirty or dusty environments that may contaminate the oil.
•Frequent connection and disconnection of hydraulic hoses and components.
Make these adjustments BEFORE putting torque wrench on nut or bolt
head. The pump pressure setting may be above the pressure needed
to provide the required torque for your application.
Exceeding required torque will cause equipment damage and may lead
to serious personal injury.
The electrical power cord must be disconnected from electrical outlets
before performing maintenance or repair procedures.
