Follow recommended precautions and safe operating practices.
SETTING UP THE PRESS FOR OPERATION
For shipping convenience some of the parts are not assembled. Assemble these parts in the following order:
1. Bolt the base angles to uprights using four bolts and nuts, which are provided. Make sure base
angles are against stops on uprights.
NOTE: The press should set on a level floor with the base angles touching the floor at all
points. Use shims where necessary.
2. Motor starter box is mounted on left upright. Have electrician connect power to motor starter. Pump
can rotate in either direction.
3. Oil Requirements: Fill reservoir thru street elbow at back of press with Mobil DTE oil No. 24 or
equivalent. NOTE: Oil level may be checked (with ram up) by removing the 1/8” NPT pipe plug on the right side of reservoir near the front. Replace plug before operating the press.
Model 5-025 uses 6 quarts
Model 5-050 uses 8 quarts
Model 5-075 uses 10 quarts
Model 5-150 uses 20 quarts
4. Prime pump by removing the plug in the top of the pump opposite the intake line and allow the oil
levels in the reservoir and pump to equalize. Fill pump with additional oil (if required), replace plug
making sure seal is tight, and start motor.
5. Attach nose piece to ram by inserting shank into ram and tightening the set screw.
CAUTION! Place the hoist crank on the lift drum shaft. Turn the hoist crank to relieve
the pressure on the table pins. Keeping tension on the hoist crank, remove the table pins one
at a time. After removing the tables pins, turn the crank running the table channels from top to
bottom. Check to make sure the cable is tracking correctly. The cable should be on each of
the two upper pulleys and should track back and forth on the cable drum. Always place table
pins under the table channels before releasing the hoist crank when positioning the table
channels for cable tracking, servicing, or set-up for desired work opening. If a tracking
problem exists, contact the Dake factory for instructions. Be sure all table pins are fully
inserted in place before applying pressure. Always remove or release pressure on the cable
before pressure is applied.
OPERATIONS
WARNING: DO NOT OVERSTROKE THE RAM. Overstroking will cause premature seal failure.
Models 5-025, 5-050, & 5-075 have a 10-inch stroke. Model 5-150 has a 16-inch stroke.
The press has been completely tested at the factory and after setting up according to instructions above, the
press is ready for operation. However, it is necessary for the operator to acquaint themselves with the
controls.
1. Three screws (item 100) are used to lock the workhead in the desired position along head
channels.
2. The handcrank (item 19) is provided to raise or lower the table channels to the proper work height.
When desired height is obtained insert the table pins. Models 5-025 and 5-050 use 2 pins on each
side (4 total) and Models 5-075 and 5-150 use 3 pins on each side (6 total).

can be adjusted by removing hex nut located on top of the valve block at the right front of reservoir
and turning the adjusting screw to the left for a lower setting.
WARNING: Never exceed rated tonnage of press
a. Check all tubing joints for leaks and tighten the tube nuts.
b. Leakage past release valve (Item 67). Drain the reservoir, and remove packing nut (Item 75),
valve rod (Item No 64), and ball valve (Item No 63). Clean out valve seat and reseat ball valve
using brass rod as a drift striking sharply with a hammer. Reassemble valve rod, packing and
packing nut. Refill reservoir with appropriate oil amount.
c. Leakage past eductor inlet check ball (Item No. 60). Drain reservoir, remove large pipe plug
(Item No. 62), valve seat (Item No. 61), and check ball (Item No. 60). Clean and inspect seat.
Reseat ball on seat or replace seat with a new one if necessary. Reassemble with ball above
the seat tightening plugs securely.
d. Worn cup leather (Serial No < 192522) or T-ring seal (Serial No > 192523). If none of the
previous conditions seem to have been the cause of the trouble, the cup leather or T-ring seal
may be worn out or damaged. To inspect this it is necessary to drain the oil and remove the
workhead from the press frame. Remove tube assembly (Item No. 123). Set 2 4x4 blocks on
the table then raise table channels with the block up to the bottom of the reservoir applying
pressure to the reservoir. Remove roller brackets from the reservoir and lower workhead using
the table.
hold the piston down under spring pressure. Next remove nuts from cylinder flange and lift cylinder off piston. The piston leather or T-ring seal can now be inspected and replaced if
necessary. Press may be reassembled in reverse order being careful not to damage the lip of
the leather cup or T-ring seal as it enters the cylinder.
2. If press will not develop rated tonnage.
a. Dirt under valve balls. Refer to MAINTENANCE 1 – c above.
b. Worn cup leather. Refer to MAINTENANCE 1 – d above.
c. Relief valve not set properly. This valve is located on the top side near the right end of the

control block at the front of the reservoir. The valve is set at the factory to bypass oil from the
pump back to the reservoir when the press reaches its rated capacity. The load on the spring
(Item 75), which governs the pressure at which the valve will bypass oil, is adjusted by turning
the screw (Item 79) in to increase pressure or out to decrease pressure. Replace seal (Item
74) and cap nut (Item 78). NOTE: We advise that the relief valve not be tampered with after it is set at the capacity of the press.

3. If nothing happens when press is operated.
a. If motor does not run, the electrical circuit should be investigated.
b. Release valve open. Be sure to have release valve firmly closed when using press.
c. If the ram will come down only a fraction of its rated stroke, check the oil level in the reservoir
with the ram at the top of its stroke. It should be visible in the sight window at the side of the
reservoir.
d. Eductor nozzle plugged. If motor labors and ram does not move when pump control know is
turned, the orifice in the eductor nozzle (item 73) may be plugged. Drain reservoir, remove tube
assembly (Item 123), eductor bushing (item 70), eductor body (item 72), and eductor nozzle
(Item 73). Clean out orifice with a 1/32” drill. Replace parts being sure not to install item 72
backwards. See parts drawing. Check O-ring and back-up washer (items 71A &71B) to be sure
it has not been damaged.
4. If press is operating slow.
a. Improper oil. It is essential that the recommended oil (Mobil DTE 24 or equivalent) be used.
Heavier oils cause a marked reduction in the ram speed. NOTE: DO NOT USE HYDRAULIC
JACK OIL!
b. Release valve not closed properly. Release valve must be firmly closed when using the press.
c. The seal on the piston rod for the 50-101 pump is worn. A worn seal will pull air into the pump
causing the pump to slowly loose its prime. To test, place grease around the control rod where
it goes in and out of the seal (Item 129). Then replace seal part number 26573.
d. The piston rod for the 50-101 pump is bent or rusted. Contact factory for rebuilding your pump.
CAUTION: Adjustments to pump are not necessary and the pump should not be tampered with
because expensive repairs may result.
WARNING! High pressure fluid is present in operational hydraulic systems. Fluids under high
pressure are dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Do not make modifications, repairs or
adjustments to any hydraulic system unless you are competent or working under competent
supervision. If in doubt, consult a qualified technician or engineer.

INSTRUCTIONS AND PARTS LIST FOR
I. DESCRIPTION
This unit is a five-piston axial type piston pump designed for heavy-duty industrial application up to
6000 psi continuous and 8000 psi intermittent. The pump should be coupled directly to the driving
source and can be rotated in either direction.
II. TYPICAL VARIABLE VOLUME CONTROLS
A. Stem control – with control stem out (spring return), output delivery is zero gpm – pushing in on
control stem increases pump delivery from zero to maximum gpm.
B. Knob control – With control knob adjusted out (counter-clockwise rotation), output delivery is
zero gpm – turning control knob clockwise increases pump delivery from zero to maximum gpm.
C. Pressure compensated – Circuit operating pressure is controlled by setting of compensator
valve mounted on pump. Turning adjusting knob clockwise increases circuit pressure, counterclockwise decreases circuit pressure. Output delivery of pump at zero circuit pressure is
maximum gpm – when circuit pressure reaches the setting of compensator valve, pump output
automatically decreases to supply the exact flow rate required by the system.
Models 50-101
¾ GPM Hydraulic Pump
Variable volume – stem control
III. INSTALLATION
A. Rotation – Pump shaft rotation can be in either direction.
B. Shaft alignment and pump mounting – The alignment of the pump and motor is critical, having a
direct relation to pump bearing and shaft seal life as well as coupling life. A flexible coupling
should always be used.
C. Fluid connections – Pressure and intake line piping should correspond to port sizes to keep fluid
velocities in an n acceptable range. Do no bush down to smaller sizes.
D. Safety valves – The high-pressure line must have a relief valve close to the high-pressure outlet
to prevent damage to pump. In a circuit using the pressure compensated pump, the relief valve
should be set several hundred psi above compensator pressure to minimize transient pressures
due to compensator overtravel.
E. Filtration – Cleanliness of fluid and components is of extreme importance in high-pressure
hydraulic circuits. A suction strainer of 140 microns or less and twice pump capacity should be
used in the pump inlet line.
IV. MAINTENANCE
A. Minor repairs – Minor repairs are considered those that do not involve total disassembly of
pump. External leaks around the pump, for example, can usually be eliminated by tightening
screws and/or fittings around the leakage area. Replacement of leaking shaft or o-ring seals is
a minor repair that can be done in the field. The Dake service manual should be consulted for
the necessary part numbers.
B. Major repairs – Major field repairs can be accomplished in an emergency. However, it is
recommended that the Dake factory be contacted for necessary parts and assistance. Dake
pumps are built to give long-term dependable service. If they should eventually require
overhaul, factory rebuilding is recommended when possible since disassembly and assembly
can damage many parts. This minimizes replacements, with net savings to the user.

Trained Dake personnel with complete rebuilding and testing facilities permit rapid overhaul and
testing, resulting in minimum downtime for the customer, as well as the added advantage of
complete factory testing after repair.
