Operate the deadman's handle
The deadman's handle is used to determine the movement of the plunger(s). In the neutral position no
pressure is built up and the oil flows back to the pump without pressure. If the deadman's handle is
released, it returns automatically to the neutral position and stops the movement of the plunger(s).
/i
Hold the deadman's handle in this position to move the plunger(s) out of the cylinder.
Pressure is built up in the tool. Return oil from the tool flows back to the pump
without pressure.
Hold the deadman's handle in this position to move the plunger(s) back into the
cylinder. Pressure is built up in the tool. Return oil from the tool flows back to the
pump without pressure.
The tool has a return line safety valve. If the return line to the pump is blocked, this overpressure return
line safety valve will prevent excessive pressure in the tool by allowing oil to leak out.
CAUTION
Never change the setting of the return line safety valve.

Attaching pulling accessories
See Fig. 7.
Pulling accessories (pulling attachments and pulling chains) make it possible to use the tool for pulling.
The pulling attachments must be placed on the spreading arms, instead of the spreading tips. The
pulling attachments may only be used in combination with the corresponding set of pulling chains.
These pulling chains consist of two parts, each with a shortening hook that only grabs the chain. The
chains are 1.5 m and 3 m long respectively.
WARNING
The pulling accessories are intended solely for the horizontal movement of loads.
Hoisting is not permitted with these pulling accessories.
•
Make sure that the spreading arms are slightly open.
•
Press the lock pin (A) at the bottom and the top.
•
Remove the spreading tip (B).
•
Push the pulling attachment (D) onto the spreading arm (C).
•
Check that the pulling attachment is properly locked by the lock pin.
