PRE-OPERATIONAL SAFETY
Apply a little transmission oil to the front and rear faces of the main upright to assist the smooth action of the compressor.
9
DO NOT operate compressor if damage is seen, parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.

Before commencing compression, carry out a visual inspection of compressor to ensure pins are securely positioned and that there are
9
no sign of wear or fatigue – if found, DO NOT use and refer to your local Sealey stockist for advice and replacement parts.
Ensure jaw locating pins are properly positioned and safety clips are attached correctly.

OPERATIONAL SAFETY
▲
CAUTION! Stop compressing the spring before the coils touch / bind.
▲
CAUTION! Before attempting to remove top strut-nut, always use a tool or similar to test if the compression has been relieved, DO NOT
use your hands / fingers.
When applying compression to the spring, always stand to one side of the compressor.

We recommend the use of purpose made strut tools to remove the top strut-nut.
9
Once compressed, and the strut removed, we recommend releasing the tension on the spring. DO NOT leave the spring under
9
compression in the machine unattended and DO NOT leave in compression for prolonged periods, i.e. overnight.
Before releasing the compression ensure that the top strut-nut is securely tightened to the manufacturer's tolerance.
9
Release the compression slowly keeping your hands and fingers away from the spring assembly.
9
Be sure that the tension on the spring is fully controlled by the strut assembly before removing it from the yokes of the compressor.
