8 Connection of the tool
8.1 Hydraulic
Two short hoses are fi tted to the tool; they are connected with the motor pump via a
hose pair (5 m / 10 m / 20 m, as is necessary). All hoses are colour marked and have
quick-connect couplings so that they can be connected without the risk of mix-up:
HP = High pressure ——> red R = refl ux ——> blue.
8.2 Connection of the plug-in coupling counterparts for HP and R
hoses
The device is connected to the hydraulic pump with the plug-in coupling counterparts
(plug and socket), there being no risk of mix-up.
Before coupling, remove the dust protection covers and unlock the connect socket with
adjusting ring by turning it. Withdraw the sleeve and connect plug and socket while
holding the sleeve in this position. Release the sleeve and set the showglass to „red“
with the adjusting ring. Now the parts are connected and locked. Decoupling is done
in the reverse order.
Note regarding the modifi ed release mechanism as of June 2003
When connecting the hoses, be aware of the following basic functions of the quick
couplers:
Set the sleeve to position X and pull it back • separate plug and socket • for connection
of a tool,
reverse this prodecure.
Connection of the hoses is possible only, when they are depressurized.
In order to prevent contamination of the tool lines protect the couplings with delivered
