6. Instruccions de funcionament
The hydraulic pull back ram is operated by a separate hydraulic pump. Follow the pump's instructions for operation, ensuring the ram is correctly positioned for the task.
- Enganxar ganxos: Securely attach the hooks to the points on the workpiece that require pulling or straightening. Ensure the hooks are fully engaged and will not slip under tension.
- Aplicar pressió: Slowly operate the hydraulic pump to extend the ram. Observe the workpiece carefully as pressure is applied. Apply pressure gradually to avoid sudden movements or damage.
- Supervisar el progrés: Continuously monitor the workpiece and the ram for any signs of stress, deformation, or slippage. Adjust the position or pressure as needed.
- Pressió d'alliberament: Once the desired pulling or straightening is achieved, slowly release the pressure from the hydraulic pump according to its operating instructions. The ram will retract as pressure is released.
- Remove Ram: After the ram has fully retracted and all pressure is released, carefully disengage the hooks from the workpiece.
