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 modified release mechanism as of June 2004
When connecting the hoses, be aware of the following basic functions of the quick couplers:
Before coupling unlock the connect socket by turning the sleeve into position X. Retract sleeve
and connect plug and socket. Release sleeve and turn it into position Y.
Now the connection has been made and locked. Uncoupling is done in the reverse order.
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
dust caps.
Attention!
Quick couplers partly have special functions. Therefore it is not allowed screwing them
off from the hoses or to exchange them.
8.4 Electric (only LSI 600 E and LSI 400 E)
The 0,5 m long electric connection cable (USA: 3m) on the device is fitted with a plug
which has to be connected with the coupling of the electric feeder cable running parallel
to the hose pair from the power pack. Make the connection by inserting the plug in the
socket and lock it by turning the knurled locking ring.
