INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING 30015/30022 BASKETS with HYDRAULIC RAM

MILNOR has started installing baskets on 30015 and 30022 machines with a hydraulic pump and ram.

The force required to properly set the basket on a 30015 machine is 5 tons (use 4,750 PSI on a 12 ton ram)
The force required to properly set the basket on a 30022 machine is 10 tons (use 9,500 PSI on a 12 ton ram).

These parts and model numbers are from Porta-Power but any comparable system will work adequately.

The part numbers are:
RC121 S/A Center Hole Cylinder - 12 ton
(single acting hollow bore hydraulic ram)
P42 Two-speed, hand-operated, hydraulic pump
HC6 1/4"ID x 6' long hose with coupler
GT30 3+1/2" Gauge
GA1 Gauge Adapter

The following MILNOR parts are used:
15K235GA Bolt - This is a grade 8 bolt, long enough to go through the ram.
02 14359A Plate - This is the standard square "washer" for the basket attachment.

Instructions:

1. Clean the shaft and basket taper with solvent.
2. Place the long bolt through the hollow ram and then through the plate.
3. After placing the basket on the shaft and inserting the key, insert the bolt
into the center hole in the shaft and run the bolt up tight by hand.
4. Use the pump to reach the appropriate setting on the Pressure Gauge.
5. Remove the long bolt and hydraulic ram and install the standard basket
bolt, plate and cover and torque properly.
