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 off all lines using screw plugs and/or dust
caps to prevent contamination of the hand pump.
When connecting lines to the hand pump, we recommend positioning it
vertically so that the ports point upward. This reduces the danger of hydraulic
fluid escaping.
6.1 Connecting nipples
The hose lines are connected via fittings to the hydraulic pump.

1. First remove the closure caps from
the fittings.

Then, you can connect the hose lines
to the fittings and tighten them with a
tightening torque of M
A
= 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.
A pressure connection "P" and a return connection "T" with a G1/4“ thread are available for
connecting directly to the pump.
To connect equipment, appropriate connectors (connecting nipples, quick-disconnect
couplings or monocouplings) must be attached. On some of the LUKAS hand pumps offered,
one of these connection options is supplied with the pump and is already fitted.
Obviously, the connection options fitted can be replaced by others. However, you must
contact an authorised LUKAS dealer or contact LUKAS directly.
Additionally, LUKAS hand pumps can be fitted with various accessories (e.g. a baseplate),
to adapt the hand pump to the individual application.
You can obtain the appropriate accessory and any necessary replacement parts for the hand
pumps from your authorised LUKAS dealer.
