MH-10KT
Hydraulic Calibration Hand Pump
Operating Instructions
The MH-10KT Hydraulic Calibration Hand Pump utilizes a fully adjustable stroke control that allows for quick priming, easy pumping
and fast pressure generation up to 10,000 psi (700 bar). The ergonomically engineered handles provide extra comfort, while the patented
triple filtration system ensures pump operation in spite of dirty conditions. The shatterproof reservoir and stainless steel construction
guarantee leak free operation. The pump has oversized check valves to provide smooth controlled operation.
