Before attempting to operate the Sealey YK10BLG Hydraulic Press Yankee Bench Type 10Tonne, carefully read through the entire instruction manual, to understand the applications limitations and potential hazards associated with this bench press. Failure to do so could lead to serious personal injury. Take note of the important safety instructions. Your hydraulic press has many features that will make your job faster and easier. Performance and dependability have been given top priority in the development of this tool, making it easy to maintain and operate.

Hydraulic presses are potentially dangerous equipment, which if not used correctly can cause serious injury to the user. The user bears sole responsibility for any damage or injury that may result from the use of the bench press for any purpose other than it was intended. Presses should not be operated by persons under 16 years of age, or persons whose stature and strength will prevent the safe operation of the press.

GENERAL INFORMATION.
The Sealey range of heavy duty floor hydraulic presses are ideal for a variety of workshop applications and are particularly suited to agricultural or industrial use. Jobs such as straightening, bending, folding, punching, removing bolts and bearings etc are some of tasks that may be accomplished by your press. Models YK10B, YK10F, YK20 are fitted with a pressure gauge and all models are supplied with work table arbors.

DANGER! Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly “give way” causing danger to operator or the component.

ASSEMBLY.
Unpack the product and check contents. Take care to ensure safety when removing main frame from packing as the unit is very heavy.

Bench Press Assembly.
Identify and lay out parts. Bolt the cross legs to the bottom of the pre-assembled main frame. Bolt the ram supporting plate or plates to the head of the main frame. Note. If your model has a top and bottom plate which attach to either side of the frame head, screw the nuts finger tight only at this stage. Remove the plastic protection ring from the ram thread and apply a suitable thread locking compound, screw the ram into the support plate until it is tight, thread the locking ring onto the ram on the lower side of the support plate and tighten. Note. YK20 is not supplied with locking ring.

Attach the pump according to model: Should your model have a separate pump assembly plate, check side of main frame to locate assembly holes. If you have a choice of left or right attachment, assemble the plate according to your operational requirement. Attach the pump to the pump plate or to the appropriate attachment bars incorporated in the main frame using the bolts provided. On models YK10B and YK10BLG the pump can be stowed on the side of the main frame when not in use by hanging it on the hook provided.

Pressure gauge (where supplied). If not already attached to the ram. Remove the dust cap hex bolt from the top of the ram and screw the pressure gauge in until tight. DO NOT over-tighten. Note: LG models are supplied without gauge. Remove the plastic safety bung from the end of the pump hose and connect the hose to the ram inlet valve. Insert the work table support pins through the holes in the main frame. Taking firm hold of the table, tip it into a diagonal position so that it can be introduced between the mainframe uprights and carefully lower it back to a horizontal position to rest on the support pins.

WARNING! Take care not to allow the working table to drop onto the pins and ensure your hands and fingers are clear of the working table when lowering.

Floor Press Assembly.
Identify and lay out parts. Bolt the cross legs to the bottom of the pre-assembled main frame and secure by bolting two support arms from each leg to the main frame. Bolt the base support bar between the main frame side supports.

INSTALLATION.
Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface taking into account clearance for working pieces. Should you wish to mount
a bench press on a workbench or surface, ensure the bench is flat and level and is strong enough to support the press and any
workpiece during operation. Before operating the press, purge the hydraulic system in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit. Open the release valve and pump the handle several times. Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating this process may resolve the problem.

DANGER! Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly “give way” causing danger to operator or the component. Also ensure you have read and understood chapter 1 safety instructions.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
Check that the hydraulic unit is fully closed ready for operating. Position the working table at the required operating height by inserting the support pins into the appropriate holes in the main frame. Screw the required adaptor to the ram and if required identify the matching cutout on the arbor plate to be used. Position the arbor plate or press tools to be used onto the work table and align beneath the ram. Place workpiece onto the work table or arbors and align beneath the ram as required. Note: Care must be taken to ensure an arbor does not fall from the press work table. If necessary hold the configuration in position with clamps. Operate the pump slowly until the ram is close to or just touching the workpiece. Before applying real pressure to the workpiece recheck the alignment with the ram and ensure that the workpiece and press tools are supported in such a way that they cannot flex to breaking point. DO NOT exceed the stroke indicated on the label or the red mark on the piston and do not apply off centre loads. When work is complete release the pressure using the knob with four lugs and the piston and the ram head will retract automatically.
Note: Always keep the piston retracted after use to avoid corrosion.

MAINTENANCE.
Maintenance and repair must only be carried out by qualified person. Contact your Sealey dealer for details. Check all fittings are tight before each use. Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals. Always keep the press clean, dry, and protected from harsh conditions. Should you need to replace the oil ensure the piston is fully retracted. An excess of oil will render the press inoperative. Use only appropriate Sealey hydraulic jack oil. DO NOT use brake fluid. Contact your local Sealey dealer for details. Purge the system to remove any air. Check your model parts information for spares. Repair kits are also available.

SAFETY NOTE.
WARNING! Always wear approved eye or face protection when operating the press to protect from flying debris such as particles of metal, rust, dirt and fluids. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating this equipment. Do not use when you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the press may result in serious personal injury.
