'''Pin Removal'''
'''Pin Removal'''
1. Place the plate you will be pressing the pin into on the top of table frame support blocks.
2. Set the dowel pin into the guide and make sure the table frame and support plates are high enough for the ram to be within an inch of the top of the pin.
3. If you need to adjust the table frame height remove the safety clips from the pins supporting the table and remove the table plates and assembly pieces. The table plates are heavy so don't drop them.
4. To move the table frame down you will remove the two upper pins and reinstall them in the correct holes below.
5. You will need a second person to help lift the table frame slightly while removing the remaining two pins and slowly lower the table onto the pins below.
6. Reinstall the top two pins and safety clips.
7. To move the table frame up you will leave the lower pins installed and remove the two upper pins. The lower pins will help prevent the table from accidentally dropping to the floor while making an adjustment.
8. You will need a second person to help lift the table frame while installing the two removed pins in the 2 lower positions.
9. Install the 2 remaining top pins and safety clips.
10. Place table support plates and assembly pieces back onto the table.
11. Place the dowel pin into the guide and align the pin with the hole in the plate. Its good practice to keep the dowel pin centered on the ram so the force is centered.
12. Make sure the pressure relief handle has been turned clockwise to allow pressure to build.
13. Insert the pump handle into the handle socket.
14. Slowly pump the handle while watching the force gauge and the pin. Make sure pressure is not building.
15. If the pin starts at an angle do not continue to apply force as this will most likely bend the pin and cause damage.
16. When the pin is at the bottom of its travel it will stop moving and you will see the force increase on the gauge and this is a good time to stop cycling the handle.
