DOUBLE-ACTING TOOLS ARE BUILT TO PROVIDE SAFETY, QUALITY AND
RELIABILITY IN EVERY STEP OF HIGH PRESSURE TOOL OPERATION.
In most cases, double-acting tools are lighter and more compact than comparable crimping and cutting
equipment, insuring easier and safer use. This is especially important in compact working areas and hot
stick use when every ounce of a tool’s weight is felt by the operator.
The one-hand valve operation is safer and easier to use, leaving your other hand free to control the tool
head. Each valve has two pressure reliefs for extra safety: One to reduce the return cycle pressure to
prevent damage to the tool; The second to protect against over pressurizing.
DOUBLE-ACTING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Superior Performance - beats competitive
power tool systems on key features and benefits.
Better tool control - start, stop, feather, and
position your crimping or cutting head with ease.
No die hang-ups - crisply retracts the die
after every crimp.
Compatible with many existing tool and die
inventories or convert your existing tools and
dies to our double-acting system.
Consistent Pressure - Delivers up to 10,000 psi
at tool head, regardless of positioning.
Quality Features - Lightweight, built-in pressure
reliefs; ground dumps; scavenger pump reduces
back-pressure problems; one-hand valve
operation; and certified non-conductive hoses.
Portability - Lighter and more streamlined than
most other tools.
Adaptability - Use Reliable tools with your
truck’s existing system or one of our portable
power units.
VALVES
Reliable valves feature one-hand operation for
extreme ease of use. They can be direct-coupled
to the tool or, if you wish, attached with hoses for
remote operation. In addition, they feature a built-
in relief valve to limit tool return pressure and a
ground dump safety valve to prevent over
pressurizing in case the return hose becomes
disconnected or plugged.
CRIMPING HEADS
In many cases, double-acting crimping heads are
significantly lighter than competitive models. Safety
is designed-in as well. One example: A pressure
reducing cavity is designed into each head to
reduce the risk of personal injury from a high-
pressure oil leak.
CUTTERS
All cutters are double-acting and available in
capacities from 1/2 in. to 4 in. Some models can
handle a wide range of materials, including rebar,
ACSR, guy strand, and bolts. Other safety features
include hoses rated at four times the working
pressure, and dielectrically safe hoses.

DOUBLE-ACTING DIRECT CONNECT
4 WAY CONTROL VALVE
Open center 4-way, 3-position control valve used for controlling double-acting
Crimping Heads and Cutters. Connect directly to the tool or use with high pressure
hoses for remote operation. The Pivot Style Control Valve may be operated with
one hand, leaving the second hand free to control the head.
Lever “locks” in the forward position for tool advance, and in the rear position for
tool retraction. Returns automatically to center “OFF” position when rated tool
pressure is reached.
The Ground Dump Safety Valve, a standard feature, will activate if the return line is
not connected. It protects the system by dumping the flow into the atmosphere.
FEATURES:
• Compact Design
• Controlled Advance with Built-in Hold Feature
• Tool Return Circuit 5,000 psi Return Line

WARNING
HYDRAULIC POWER SUPPLY
DO NOT attempt to make any changes to any of the component
parts or accessories when connected to the power source.
DO NOT adjust, inspect, or clean tool while the tool is connected
to the power source. The tool could accidentally start up
and cause serious injury.
DO NOT lock the tool in the On Position. In an emergency,
serious damage or injury could occur during the time
required to stop the tool.
SAFE OPERATION & CARE
USE THIS TOOL FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE ONLY
Any other use can result in injury or property damage.
INSPECT TOOL BEFORE USE. Replace any worn, damaged or
missing parts. A damaged or improperly assembled tool may
malfunction, injuring operator and/or nearby personnel.
INSPECT HYDRAULIC HOSES AND COUPLINGS before
each use. Repair or replace if any cracking, leakage, wear or
damage is found. Worn or damaged hoses may fail resulting
in personal injury or property damage.
CLEAR WORK AREA of all bystanders and unnecessary
personnel before operating this tool.
KEEP ALL PARTS OF THE BODY AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS.
Failure to observe this warning could result in serious injury.
WARNING
OIL INJECTION INJURY
Hydraulic oil or fluid under the skin is a serious injury. Oil
under pressure can penetrate the skin and may cause
dismemberment or loss of life. Seek medical assistance
immediately if such an injury should occur.
Always wear safety gloves, eye protection and all required
safety equipment when operating or handling this tool.
DO NOT use fingers or hands to attempt to locate a leak.
DO NOT handle hoses or couplers while system is pressurized.
NEVER open or service the system before depressurizing.
WARNING

9
HOSES AND FITTINGS
There exists the potential for shock in using anything other
than certified nonconductive hoses and hydraulic oil with
dielectric properties, when using system components near
energized electrical lines. Failure to recognize these conditions
could cause electrocution.
Hoses and fittings used with this tool must comply with S.A.E. J1273 which covers
recommended practice for selection, installation, and maintenance of hose and hose
assemblies. The correct hoses and fittings are available from your supplier.
WARNING: Failure to comply with these warnings could result in severe bodily injury.
WARNING
UNIT/HOSE CONNECTIONS
ALWAYS DISCONNECT pump/power source and move toggle
switch to OFF before connecting or disconnecting any components.
ALWAYS DEPRESSURIZE hydraulic system, before slowly
disconnecting this unit or any of the systems components.
ALWAYS TIGHTEN couplings completely. Loose or improperly
tightened couplings will not allow fluid to pass through the
hose creating a blockage in the supply or return line.
ALWAYS INSPECT HOSES AND CONNECTORS before
connection to tool. Replace or repair if any leakage is evident.
Leakage is a sign of deterioration in component parts. Worn or
leaking parts must be repaired or replaced, or tool damage or
severe injury could result.
WARNING
HOSE INSTALLATION
ALWAYS ENSURE CONNECTORS ARE CLEAN
DOUBLE ACTING - Care must be taken to assure the correct
connection of the hoses to the pressure and return (tank) ports.
Connect the return hose to the return (tank) port on the power
source, then to the return port on the tool.
Connect the pressure hose to the pressure port on the tool, then
to the “P” pressure port on the power source.
Operation with hydraulic flow reversed can cause malfunction.
Failure to fully comply can result in severe injury or death.
