Introduction
This arbor press is designed to perform small
press jobs, such as staking, riveting, and installing/removing bearings. The ram accepts dies,
inserts, and other tooling for custom work.

Material under pressure
could fly apart and cause
impact injuries. Always
wear safety glasses when
using this press.
Keep hands and fingers
away from the ram when
applying downward pressure to avoid pinching
injuries.

The base of this machine has mounting holes that allow it to be fastened to a workbench or other mounting surface to prevent it from moving during operation and causing accidental injury or damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through Mount" (see example below) where holes are drilled all the way through the workbench—and hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to secure the machine in place.
Cleanup
The unpainted surfaces of your machine are
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it
will take a little time to clean.
Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your
machine. The time you spend doing this now will
give you a better appreciation for the proper care
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.
There are many ways to remove this rust preventative, but the following steps work well in a wide
variety of situations. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions with any cleaning product you
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.
Before cleaning, gather the following:
• Disposable Rags
• Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)
• Safety glasses & disposable gloves
• Putty knife (optional)
Basic steps for removing rust preventative:
1. Put on safety glasses.
Mounting
Because of the dynamic forces involved in operating the arbor press, we strongly recommend that
you mount it to a benchtop or other stable work
surface to prevent it from moving during operation
and causing accidental injury or damage.
3
The base of the arbor press has
holes on each side of the base (see Figure 3).

2. Coat rust preventative with liberal amount of
cleaner/degreaser (see Page 8 for offerings
from Grizzly), then let it soak for 5–10 minutes.
3. Wipe off surfaces. If cleaner/degreaser is
effective, rust preventative will wipe off easily. Use a putty knife to scrape off as much as
possible, then wipe off remainder with rag.
4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,
then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality metal protectant (see Accessories on
Page 8).
NOTICE
Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as
acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may
damage painted surfaces.

Another option is a "Direct Mount" (see example
below) where the machine is secured directly to
the workbench with lag screws and washers.
2. Insert handle through hub and re-install endcap, as shown in Figure 7.
3. Thread lock knob into hub, as shown in
Figure 7. When tightened, knob secures
handle in position relative to hub.
4. Raise ram by rotating handle, and insert table
plate into base (see Figure 8).
5. Rotate table plate to align desired opening
size under ram (see Figure 8).

The included dies (or custom tooling) are inserted
into the ram bore, which has a
depth, and a magnet inside bore to hold the tooling in place (see Figure 9 for an example).

Flipping Ram
The ram can be flipped end-over-end, to switch
between the solid end and the end with the bore,
depending on the operation.
2. Remove ram rack from press, then flip it endover-end, and re-install, ensuring rack and
pinion mesh together properly.

Adjusting Ram Play
The ideal adjustment allows the ram to move with
very little play, but not be overly stiff during pressing operation. Set screws on the front and left
side of the ram housing (see Figure 12) adjust the
amount of ram free-play.
Cleaning & Protecting
Wipe down the arbor press with a clean shop
rag and mineral spirits. When dry, protect the
unpainted surfaces by applying a thin film of ISO
32 oil (see Page 8).

Proper lubrication allows the arbor press to function smoothly during operation. Lubrication is
required when arbor press is no longer smooth
through its full range of motion. Ensure ram
free play is adjusted properly before lubricating
components.
Lubrication Frequency ....................... As Needed
Proper lubrication of the two ball oilers (see
Figure 13) is done with a pump-type oil can.
Figure 12. Example of ram free-play adjustment
controls.
2. Equally adjust each pair of set screws a
small amount in same direction (clockwise
to decrease free-play, or counterclockwise to
increase free-play).
3. Use sliding handle to move ram up and down
a few times. Adjust set screws as necessary.
4. When you are satisfied with ram free-play,
retighten hex nuts without moving set screws.
Ball Oilers
Figure 13. Ball oiler locations for lubricating.
Push the tip of the oil can nozzle against the ball
oiler to create a hydraulic seal, then pump the oil
can twice. If you see sludge and contaminants
coming out of the lubrication area, continue
pumping the oil can until the oil runs clear. Move
the components through the entire path of travel a
few times to distribute the oil. When finished, wipe
away the excess oil.

2. Use shop rags, stiff brush, and mineral spirits
to clean teeth of ram rack and pinion.
3. When dry, apply a light coat of grease to ram
rack and pinion teeth.
4. Re-install ram rack and front plate.
To lubricate rack and pinion:
1. Remove front plate and ram to expose rack
and pinion (see Figure 14).

High-Pressure Oil Can
H7615—Steel Nozzle
Whether you are lubricating cutting tools or maintaining machinery in top operating condition, you
will appreciate this High-Pressure Oil Can. Holds
5 ounces of oil and is trigger-activated.
T26685—ISO 32 Moly-D Machine Oil, 1 gal.
Moly-D oils are some of the best we've found for
maintaining the critical components of machinery
because they tend to resist run-off and maintain
their lubricity under a variety of conditions—as
well as reduce chatter or slip.
Figure 17. ISO 32 machine oil.
T23964—Armor Plate with Moly-D MultiPurpose Grease, 14.5 oz. (NLGI#2 Equivalent)
Armor Plate with Moly-D is a rich green moly
grease that provides excellent stability and unsurpassed performance under a wide range of temperatures and operating conditions. Armor Plate
grease is entirely unique due to the fact that the
moly in it is solubilized, which provides superior performance to other greases containing the
black solid form of molybdenum disulfide.
Figure 15. High-pressure oil can.
G2544—Solvent Cleaner & Degreaser
T23692—Orange Power Degreaser
Great products for removing shipping grease.
