4. Setup

1. Kuburitsa: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Report any damage to your supplier immediately.
2. Gungano: The main unit typically comes pre-assembled. Ensure all bolts and fasteners are tight before first use. Refer to the assembly diagram (if provided separately) for detailed steps if any assembly is required.
3. Kuiswa: Position the compressing station on a firm, level, and clean concrete surface capable of supporting the unit's weight and the maximum load. Ensure adequate clear space around the unit for safe operation.
4. Air Supply Connection: Connect a suitable air compressor to the air inlet on the unit using the provided air hose. Ensure the air supply is clean, dry, and regulated to a maximum of 120psi (8.3 bar).
5. Kutanga Kuongorora: Before loading a spring, perform a test cycle by operating the foot pedal or air control to ensure the hydraulic ram extends and retracts smoothly.

5. Operating Instructions

1. Prepare the Spring: Ensure the coil spring is clean and free from debris.
2. Position the Yokes: Adjust the upper yoke to an appropriate height for the spring being compressed. The unit features 7 upper yoke positions for versatility. The lower yoke has a travel of 340mm.
3. Load the Spring: Carefully place the coil spring into the plastic-coated yokes. Ensure it is centered and securely seated. The yokes are designed for springs with diameters from Ø80mm to Ø175mm.
4. Compress the Spring:
   • Air Actuation: Use the air control valve to slowly apply pressure, causing the hydraulic ram to compress the spring.
   • Foot Pedal Operation: Alternatively, use the foot pedal to manually actuate the hydraulic unit and compress the spring.
   Apply pressure gradually and observe the spring's compression. Do not over-compress the spring.
5. Secure the Spring: Once the spring is compressed to the desired level, secure it using appropriate spring clamps or retaining tools (not included with the unit).
6. Release Pressure: Slowly release the pressure from the hydraulic unit.
7. Remove the Spring: Carefully remove the secured spring from the compressing station.

Cherechedza: The plastic-coated yokes are designed to reduce the risk of spring slippage or damage during the compression process.

6. Kuchengeta

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Sealey RE232 Coil Spring Compressing Station.

• Daily Inspection: Before each use, inspect the unit for any visible damage, loose fasteners, or signs of hydraulic fluid leaks. Check the condition of the air hose and connections.
• Kuchenesa: Keep the unit clean and free from dirt, grease, and debris. Wipe down surfaces with a clean cloth. Do not use harsh solvents that could damage paint or seals.
• Hydraulic Fluid Level: Periodically check the hydraulic fluid level. Refer to the unit's specific instructions for accessing the reservoir and the type of hydraulic fluid recommended (typically ISO VG 32 or equivalent). Top up if necessary.
• Lubrication: Lubricate moving parts and pivot points as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure smooth operation.
• Kuchengeta: When not in use, store the unit in a clean, dry, and secure location, away from extreme temperatures and corrosive environments.
