Clarke 7615115 AHP26 26 Tonne Hydraulic Press F.A.Q.

How do I safely operate the Clarke 7615115 AHP26 hydraulic press?

Ensure the press is on a stable surface. Wear safety goggles and gloves. Use the correct attachments for the job, and never exceed the 26-tonne capacity.

What should I do if the hydraulic press is not building pressure?

Check for leaks in the hydraulic system. Ensure the oil levels are adequate and there is no air trapped in the system. Tighten any loose fittings.

How often should I perform maintenance on the hydraulic press?

It's recommended to perform maintenance every 6 months, including checking oil levels, inspecting for leaks, and testing the pressure gauge.

How can I change the hydraulic oil in the Clarke AHP26?

To change the hydraulic oil, first drain the existing oil from the tank, then refill with the recommended hydraulic oil, ensuring not to overfill.

What type of hydraulic oil is suitable for the AHP26 press?

Use ISO 32 or ISO 46 hydraulic oil, as specified in the Clarke AHP26 manual, to ensure optimal performance.

Why is the ram of the press moving slowly?

This could be due to low oil levels, a clogged filter, or air in the hydraulic lines. Check each of these and rectify as necessary.

Can I use the press for bending metal?

Yes, the press can be used for bending metal with the appropriate bending attachments, ensuring not to exceed the press's capacity.

What should I do if the press is leaking hydraulic oil?

Inspect the system for loose or damaged seals and fittings. Replace any defective components and ensure all connections are tight.

How do I align the workpiece properly under the ram?

Ensure the workpiece is centered and stable on the pressing table. Use alignment tools or guides if necessary to maintain precision during operation.

Is it necessary to bleed the hydraulic system, and how?

Yes, bleeding the system is necessary to remove air. Open the bleed valve slightly while the press is under no load, and cycle the ram up and down until air bubbles cease.
