This model is rated at 20 tons (20,000 kgf). The product line also includes other capacities (6, 10, 12, 30 ton), so confirm you have the 20‑ton version when ordering.
According to the listing, typical specs are: stroke 230 mm, overall height ~1700 mm, working range ~1250 mm, frame width ~700 mm, adjustable length ~150 mm, and gross weight approximately 230–245 kg. Confirm exact specs with the seller for your specific model.
The gauge displays hydraulic pressure. Because the gauge shows pressure (e.g., bar/psi), consult the manufacturer's pressure-to-force chart to convert to tonnage. Never rely solely on gauge readings to exceed the rated 20‑ton capacity.
Use the hand winch to raise or lower the work table or support plate to position the workpiece. Secure or lock the table in place before applying hydraulic pressure. Do not use the winch to bear the load during pressing—use the hydraulic ram for the pressing operation.
After positioning the workpiece with the winch and supports, operate the hydraulic pump (hand lever or foot pump depending on the variant) to build pressure and apply force. Use the control/release valve to lower the ram safely and to relieve pressure when finished.
Wear eye and hand protection, keep hands and body clear of pinch points, never exceed the 20‑ton rated capacity, use appropriate supports and tooling, ensure the workpiece is secure, inspect the press for leaks or damage before use, and release pressure slowly and in a controlled manner. Follow the manufacturer's safety instructions.
Regular maintenance includes checking and topping hydraulic oil, changing oil per the manufacturer schedule, inspecting seals and hoses for leaks, tightening fittings, lubricating moving parts (winch, guides), and checking gauge calibration. Perform a full inspection before heavy or critical jobs.
Use hydraulic oil recommended by the manufacturer. If unspecified, a common choice is ISO VG32 (hydraulic oil) suitable for ambient workshop temperatures, but confirm the exact grade in the product manual or with the seller.
Check the hydraulic oil level and quality, inspect for air in the system (bleed if necessary), ensure the release valve is fully closed, examine hoses and fittings for leaks, and verify seals are intact. If problems persist, contact the supplier or a qualified technician.
In many listings a basic pressure plate or V‑blocks may be included, but tooling and specialized dies are often optional. Confirm with the seller which accessories are included and order any additional plates, adapters, or tooling as needed.
Yes—a 20‑ton hydraulic shop press is commonly used for pressing bearings, bushings, sleeves, and some ball joints. Always verify the required force for the specific vehicle task and use appropriate fixtures and safety procedures.
Place the press on a flat, level, and structurally sound floor. For permanent installation, bolt the frame to the floor or a heavy workbench if recommended by the manufacturer. Ensure adequate clearance for operation and service. Use a forklift or lifting equipment for placement due to the unit's weight.
This is a heavy unit (approx. 230–245 kg). It is usually shipped on a pallet/crate and may require a forklift or pallet jack for unloading. Expect freight handling charges and ensure your receiving location can accept heavy shipments.
Yes—most manufacturers and suppliers offer spare seals, valves, pumps, and rams. Order parts using the model number and serial number. Keep a few common seals and fittings on hand to minimize downtime.
Certifications and warranty terms vary by manufacturer and seller. Many exported units carry CE marking or meet ISO manufacturing standards, and some sellers provide limited warranties. Always request certification documents and the warranty policy before purchase.
