Manufacturer: Eaton

All Vickers Series TE, TF and TL cylinders are individually tested and inspected before shipment to assure freedom from defects. Plugs are inserted in the ports to protect threads and keep foreign matter from entering the cylinder prior to installation.

Features Model

Mounting and alignment
Position the cylinder loosely in the mounting and check the alignment of the piston rod with the load connection at both ends of the stroke. If the cylinder is too large to move by hand, proceed with piping and installation and operate cylinder throughout the stroke prior to connection.
Trunnion and swivel mount bearings should fit closely for the entire length of the pin, and must be square with the load connection throughout the stroke.
Flush or foot mounted cylinders may be pinned or keyed to prevent shifting during high shock loads.
Always use the wrench flats when connecting piston rod to load to prevent damage to the sealing surface. Tighten piston rod against shoulder or use a locknut on full size threads. If cylinder has been pressurized, relieve all pressure prior to turning the piston rod.
Piping connections
All piping connections should be deburred and the system thoroughly flushed to purge all contaminants prior to connecting cylinder ports. Care should be taken to prevent over tightening of the piping connections.
Cylinder operation
Cycle cylinder a few times with reduced load and pressure. Hydraulic cylinders may be erratic due to trapped air, but will normally purge themselves after several cycles. Some cylinders may be equipped with air bleed screws which can be slowly loosened with a male key wrench, then re-tightened after air is purged.
Cushioned cylinders are adjusted and tested prior to shipping, but usually require additional adjustment after connection to the work load. If cushion adjustment screw has a locknut, loosen and hold with wrench while turning the screw.
To increase effectiveness of the cushion, turn the adjustment screw clockwise. To provide less cushion, turn the screw counterclockwise. Most orifices are fully open with two full turns of the screw from the closed position.
The final position of the screw should be a balance between any shock or bounce at the start of the cushion and the final impact of the piston at the end of stroke.
