Operation

The correct way to press any of the control buttons is to firmly press and then release. Pressing

There are three control buttons on the RP-50FC:

• Start button, green. Activates the automatic pressing cycle. When pressed, the press ram

• Stop button, red. Stops all movement of the press ram if it is in use. This is your emergency

• Reverse button, blue. Returns the press ram to its original starting position. Do not hold it in

moves down until it contacts the item you are crushing. The press ram automatically stops when it reaches maximum crushing pressure, after which it automatically retracts until it returns to the starting position.

stop.

when retracting the press ram.

⚠ WARNING Avoid off-center loads. If the press ram seems to be laboring more than usual or the

filter/can is unusually hard to press, stop operation. Do not operate the press ram if the filter/can tilts or binds during the downward movement of the press head.

To operate the CB-30:

1. Place an approved waste oil container under the oil drain.

2. Lift the sliding door firmly and place an empty filter or paint can in the center of chamber, open end down.

⚠ WARNING Grip the sliding door firmly at all times when placing or retrieving filters in the

chamber. Never attempt to operate the crusher with the door open.

3. Close the sliding door.

Important: You cannot crush an item until the sliding door is fully closed.

4. Press and release the green button; an automatic cycle begins.

Once the automatic cycle starts, step away from the unit.

The press ram will extend downwards, crush the item, then automatically retract to the original starting position and shut off.

5. To remove the crushed filter/can, open the sliding door and pull out the crushed item.

Do not get distracted. Be very careful not to scratch, cut or puncture your skin on the filter’s sharp edges.

⚠ WARNING Do not attempt to remove a stuck filter or paint can until you stop the automatic

pressing cycle using the Red button.

6. Put the breaker switch (on the top left side of the unit) to the Off (down) position when the unit is not in use.

Using the Foot Pedals

The foot pedals operate differently than the control buttons.

To manually operate the RP-50FC using the foot pedals:

1. Make sure the foot pedals cable is connected to the left bottom side of the control box.

2. Press and hold the right pedal to move the press ram downwards.

If you stop pressing the right pedal, the press ram stops moving downwards. You must hold it down to continue the press ram moving downwards.

3. Press and hold the left pedal to move the press ram back up towards the starting position

If you stop pressing the left pedal, the press ram stops moving upwards.

4. Either foot switch can also serve as an emergency stop. Press on a pedal and then stop pressing; the press ram stops moving.

Maintenance

⚠ WARNING: Unplug the unit from its power source

To maintain the RP-50FC:

• If you need work done on your power unit, you

• Make sure to keep the press clean and free of debris and dirt. These can cause failure in the hydraulic system.

• All exposed machine surfaces of the press should be brushed clean and wiped with a lubricant, such as WD-40®, on a regular basis.

• Regularly clean the press chamber to remove any accumulated sludge, metal particles, or other debris that could affect press operation.

• Keep the breather hole and oil drain free of accumulation of debris; remove any materials that may be clogging the drain.

• Inspect for leaks and drain the approved waste oil container in accordance with all local, state, and federal regulations.

• Lubricate the sliding door on a regular basis to prevent the door from binding.

• Keep the red emergency button clean and in working order.

• Change or replace the hydraulic oil with SAE-10W or 20W non-foaming hydraulic oil every 5000 cycles (or about once each year), depending on the degree of usage and the cleanliness of the work environment. Verify that the ram is completely retracted during oil change service.

• During oil change service, remove the oil reservoir and clean away any dirt or other abrasive materials around the filler cap. With the oil reservoir removed, clean away dirt or other abrasive materials that have accumulated on the oil suction tube filter.

• Cycle the pump and ram without building pressure. Retract the ram and check the oil level in the pump reservoir. Fill reservoir until the oil level is one inch from the bottom of the fill port.
