Only the specifi ed LUKAS hydraulic power packs (motor pumps) or suitable LUKAS hand
pumps can be used to drive the equipment.
If the pump unit is a different make, you must make sure that it complies with LUKAS
specifi cations, otherwise potential dangers may occur which are not the responsibility of
LUKAS. Ensure in particular that the maximum permissible operating pressure for the
connected LUKAS equipment is not exceeded.
NOTE:
Before you use pumps from a different manufacturer, you must contact LUKAS
or an authorised dealer.
The connection between the hydraulic power pack (pump unit) or hand pump and the
hydraulic cylinders is by hoses.
4.2 Hydraulic supply to the cylinders
5.1 Basic aspects
On the double-acting hydraulically-actuated working equipment, there is, on the
pressure supply side (with cylinders: on the cylinder base side) a plug coupling nipple
and on the return side (with cylinders: on the piston rod side) a plug connection sleeve; and
these are connected to the control unit by pairs of hose extensions.
A plug connection nipple is provided on the single-acting hydraulically-actuated
working equipment; and this is connected to the pump unit or control unit via hose
extension.
If you are using single-acting cylinders (particularly of a previous type), LUKAS recommends
that you contact LUKAS or an authorised dealer. Using single-acting locking-cylinders a
sticker (accessory order no. 43010073) is available to simplify operation. For unlocking the
control leaver must be pulled in direction of the the operator.
The hose extension pairs are supplied in various lengths. The individual hoses can, if
required, also be marked with coloured snap rings to make it easier to allocate the hoses.
(For specifi c details, please consult the LUKAS range of accessories or contact your LUKAS
dealer.)
5. Connecting the hydraulic equipment
WARNING / CAUTION / ATTENTION!
Prior to connecting the devices, ensure that all the components
being used are suitable for the maximum operating pressure
of the pump unit! In case of doubt you must consult LUKAS
directly!
