DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
23
Pump: Gear, pump rotation is clockwise (motor is CCW).
Maximum GPM: 17.2 GPM (65.1L/M) at no load, 4000 RPM. Flow will decrease as
pressure approaches the relief setting and as engine RPM drops under load.
Hydraulic Fluid Tank Capacity: 11 gallons (41.6Liters)
Hose Couplings: Bruning quick disconnect, 3/4 inch & ½ inch
Relief Pressure: Factory set at 3000 PSI /206.9 Bar (at valve outlet port). Do not exceed
3000 PSI. Adjustable to 1200 PSI / 83Bar. At relief setting, all flow is to tank and none to tool.
Engine: Briggs & Stratton 35 hp (Gross), Air-cooled, gasoline fueled, no load RPM: 4000.
Fuel Tank Capacity: 5 gallons.
This unit is compatible with most hydraulically driven sawing and drilling components. The
system may not be compatible with components of some manufacturers.
The power unit was inspected and operated before shipment and should not require any
additional adjustments prior to its initial use.
Hydraulic Fluid: The reservoir of the
hydraulic power unit must be full prior to
start-up. The use of high quality petroleum
based hydraulic oil with the following
properties is recommended:
Anti-wear
Low foaming
Rust and oxidation inhibitors
Wide temperature range
Fluid viscosity: 8-1000 Centistokes
(52-4600 SUS). The unit is shipped
with an ISO 46 Viscosity grade
(8Cs/52SUS @ 212F/100C and
46Cs/210SUS @ 104F/40C).
The oil must be kept free of contamination
to avoid damage to system components.
The strainer in the fill cap must always be
in place when adding oil. Quick
disconnects must be cleaned before
connections are made.
Control Valve: The pressure
compensated flow control valve on this unit
allows full flow control while the gas engine
remains at its most efficient wide-open
throttle. This allows a higher operating
pressure at all flows.
Flow settings
: CCW, all flow routed to
tank. Flow to tool increases as valve
rotates clockwise.
Relief Valve: Relief pressure can be
adjusted by using an Allen wrench at the
relief cartridge, which is mounted just
below the front panel. The relief can be set
as low as 1200 psi; do not exceed 3000
psi. To adjust, the flow control must be set
at MAX and no tool should be attached.
This will force all flow over relief. The relief
should rarely need adjustment. Higher
relief may cause the engine to stall.
Hydraulic Oil Cooler and Radiator: The
power unit is equipped with a brazed plate
style oil cooler and a radiator option is
available. Whenever possible, water
should be passed through the cooler
before being used for dust control or blade
& bit cooling. Some tools will automatically
shut off water flow when not actively
cutting, drilling, etc. This may result in
higher oil temperatures if the power unit
continues to run for long periods without
cooling water. The optional radiator fan will
come on automatically when the oil
temperature reaches ~ 120 F. (49 C.) and
continue to run until the oil cools, even if
the engine is shut off. The fan will stop
whenever the emergency stop switch is
used.
IMPORTANT: If there is a risk of frost
the water must be drained from the
cooler to prevent damage by freezing.
24
HOSES: Large diameters and short
lengths are preferred and offer the highest
system efficiency. If one is operating 50 ft
(15.2M) from the power source, there is
also a 50 ft (15.2M) return for a 100 ft
(35.5M) total hose length. With 15 GPM
and oil at 100 deg. F (37.8C), this could
result in a 400 psi (27.5 Bar) pressure loss
with ½” hose and a 140 psi (9.6 Bar) loss
with 5/8” hose. Pressure loss will change
dramatically with oil temperature.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Operator Responsibilities
It is the operator’s responsibility to use this
unit and any attached tools under safe
working conditions and to follow proper
safety procedures for themselves, coworkers, observers, and the public at large.
The operator must be aware of the
machine’s capabilities and limitations and
follow the safety precautions in each
section of this manual. Periodic
maintenance is required, in accordance
with the instructions herein, to promote
safe and reliable operations.
WARNING
immediate work area.
Wear approved:
Safety glasses
Ear protection
Hard hat
Gloves
Safety shoes
: Keep bystanders out of the
Any other protective equipment
required for compliance with standard
safety practices or federal, state, and
local codes and regulations
HOSE CONNECTIONS: It is best to
connect the hoses to the unit before
starting as even very low residual pressure
can make hose installation more difficult.
Push couplings together until you hear it
click. Turn locking ring of coupling to the
secured position.
ENGINE:Make sure that the engine
crankcase is filled with oil to the proper
level! Refer to your engine manual for oil
checking and changing procedures, along
with oil specifications, etc.
IMPORTANT: Operating the engine
without oil will ruin the engine.
FUEL: Use regular grade unleaded
gasoline to fuel the engine. Premium
grade may be used if necessary. Fill the
tank when the engine is off and has been
allowed to cool. Care should be taken to
prevent spilling fuel. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always leave enough space for
expansion due to environmental heating.
WARNING: In the event of fuel spillage,
do not start the engine or operate any
nearby electrical component until the
spilled fuel has been removed.
Starting Procedure:
Set the flow control valve to zero.
Open the fuel shut off valve below the
gas tank.
Be certain the emergency off switch
has been pulled out.
Set throttle at about 1/3, set choke if
necessary (cold engine). Turn key to
start and release. Refer to engine
manual for details of control functions.
Let engine warm and gradually set the
throttle to maximum.
DANGER: Exhaust from the engine
contains carbon monoxide, a
poisonous, odorless, invisible gas,
which can cause serious illness or
death. Do not operate the engine
where ventilation is restricted. Open
windows and doors may not be
sufficient to prevent this hazard.
25
Heating Cold Oil: Forcing the oil over
relief will quickly increase the oil
temperature. With no tool connected to the
unit, move the valve setting toward 10.
This will force an increasing percentage of
oil over relief. Heat cold oil to room
temperature or ~100F/38C maximum. Cold
oil greatly increases pressure loss in hoses
and fittings and may affect tool operation.
Maintaining Oil Temperature: With an
ample water supply and the radiator, it is
unlikely overheating will be an issue except
in the most extreme ambient temperatures.
To force high oil temperatures down, run
the unit with the flow control set to zero.
This unloads the unit yet circulates oil
through the cooling system. The rate of
cooling will depend on the ambient
temperature and how much water is being
passed through the cooler.
Some control valves at the external tool
may create backpressure and heat even
when off. It is best to set the flow control to
zero or shut the power unit down to avoid
heating and conserve energy.
IMPORTANT: Monitor the thermometer
at the top of the hydraulic tank.
Maximum recommended oil
temperature is 180 degrees Fahrenheit
(82 deg C).
Shutting Down:
Shift the flow control valve to zero to
unload the system.
Throttle the engine back to a low RPM.
Turn the key to the off position.
IMPORTANT
front panel will immediately stop the
engine and radiator fan. Hydraulic
pressure and flow will go to zero. This
button must be in the out position to
start the engine.

OPERATING DRIVEN
EQUIPMENT
The operator must know the hydraulic
requirements and limitations of the driven
equipment and the appropriate
adjustments must be made on the controls.
The introduction of other control devices
may cause system heating or may render
the system inoperative.
IMPORTANT: This power unit is
equipped with a positive displacement
gear pump. All tools must be equipped
with a control valve that allows flow
directly to return ports when not in use.
Blocking oil flow or abruptly
disconnecting the tool can send flow
over relief and potentially overheat the
system.
Instructions supplied with the driven
equipment must be followed to ensure
correct connection and operation of each
individual piece of equipment. Equipment
supplied by Diamond Products will be
capable of being connected correctly and
will be compatible with this power unit,
providing neither has been modified from
original factory configuration. With
equipment of other manufacturers, it will be
necessary to determine the following:
Correct direction of flow through the
equipment.
Correct pressure and flow required by
the equipment.
Compatibility of any valves or circuitry
and quick disconnects. Some handheld equipment uses a trigger control,
which is operated frequently. These
valves must be of the open center type
for correct operation.
IMPORTANT
must be clean when connecting hoses
and devices. Failure to thoroughly
clean may result in contamination and
premature failure of system or tool
components.

INSTRUCTIONS
Oil Filter: change the filter when
indicated by the gage at the filter.
Oil Change: establishing an oil analysis
program is the preferred method of
determining oil condition and when to
change it. If the oil is kept clean, dry,
and operated at moderate
temperatures, it can last for several
years. With no analysis program an oil
change every 200 hours is
recommended. See the section
Hydraulic Fluid for specifications. A ½”
pipe thread oil drain port is at the
bottom of the hydraulic tank.
Engine Oil: Change engine oil and filter
and perform other routine maintenance
as recommended in the engine
operation manual.
Inspect hoses, couplings, and fittings
daily for leaks, tighten as required.
Clean quick disconnects frequently.
Replace any leaking or defective
components immediately.
Check hydraulic oil level daily. Fill tank
to upper end of sight tube with unit off.
