Pump Flashcards
1
Q
Use
A
Energise hydraulic fluid to use rescue tools
2
Q
Construction components (4)
A
Engine
Pump
Frame
Pressure relief tool
3
Q
Engine construction
A
- 4 stroke air cooled petrol pump
- recoil starter / choke / fuel
- hand throttle next to starter
- eco mode - fuel / noise reduction
- 1.7l petrol tank
4
Q
Pump construction
A
- 3 stage axial piston pump
- multiple stages = quicker , more efficient use
- stage 1- 0-150, 2- 150-280,3-280-720
- pressure relief valve at 720b
- 4.34L oil tank
- hose adapters
5
Q
Frame construction
A
- protection for engine and pump
- tubular alloy,l
- plastic handle, rubber inlay
- rubber mounds on feet, reduce vibration, increase stabiliry
6
Q
Pressure relief tool
A
Connects to hose lines to remove built up fluid pressure
7
Q
Safety
A
- PPE
- level ground
- ventilation.
8
Q
Operation
A
- Visual test
- connect tools
- turn on and engage
Off
Make up tools
Reduce throttle
- clean refuel
9
Q
Testing
A
Visual = daily, after use
- clean
- fluid volume
- leaks
- damage
Operational = into service, weekly, after repair
- no leaks
- pump works correctly
Annual workshop test
