Note: There is a risk for the safety valve to trigger if this procedure is not respected.
To apply the hydraulic pressure needed, press the pump lever slowly about
once each 5 seconds until 120 bars and once each 10 seconds after 120
bars, until the required pressure is reached
When you reach the pressure required, close valve 2 (compression valve).
Note: Closing the valve can slightly increase the pressure
Note: If you have difficulties to apply the pressure needed, refer to 3.7 Trouble

Valve 2
Note: There is a risk for the safety valve to trigger if this procedure is not respected.
To apply the hydraulic pressure needed, press the pump lever slowly about
once each 5 seconds until 380 bars and once each 10 seconds after 380
bars, until the required pressure is reached
When you reach the pressure required, close valve 1 (traction valve).
Note: Closing the valve can slightly increase the pressure
Note: If you have difficulties to apply the pressure needed, refer to 3.7 Trouble
shooting
A slight pressure loss can occur during utilization, if not exceed 10 bars in 5 min,
there is no trouble. If exceed, see trouble shooting bellow:
If there is a loss of pressure when using the hydraulic system, this may be caused
by:
The safety valve was triggered because the applied pressure was too strong
Note: For information, the safety valve can be triggered from 443 bars in traction and
from 158 bars in compression
The safety valve is not corectly set (this can happen after several triggers)
The manometers are not working properly and do not indicate the correct
value
If you use the pump and the pressure does not increase in the system, it is possible
there is a lack of oil in the pump.

As GSE & Tools manufacturer, Airbus recommends calibration tests during tool
life cycle. Those recommendations should include a load test factor and a
periodicity defined here after.

Control the trigger value of each safety valve with the calibrated manometer
Note: for safety valve calibration, pump identically as for tool utilization paragraph 3.4.4
Tool Utilization
Once set, tighten the nut and instal the protective cap.
During safety valve calibration, check the correct operation of the manometers
1&2
A. Servicing &Maintenance
Servicing and maintenance must be done before each use, with the GSE/Tool
uninstalled and in a rest configuration.
Servicing and maintenance shall consist of:
- Verifying the proper conditions of working of the GSE/Tool.
- Checking periodic tests have been performed
- Checking calibration has been performed
- Cleaning parts
B. Maintenance Schedule
Perfom calibration and periodical test (see §4.1 and §4.2)
C. Specific maintenance
- See calibration and periodical test (see §4.1 and §4.2)
- Worn components must be replaced with original parts, not repaired. Parts of
inferior quality could damage the tools and be a risk to safety.
- Follow hydraulic pump & cylinder manuals for their preventive maintenance
actions needed.
5 Handling / Storage
A. Handling
- GSE storage box with stored GSE inside can be handled by hand.
- All items can be handled by hand through one or more people
B. Storage
- Before storing, refer to ‘Packing checklist’ (chapter 2.3) in order to verify the
availability of all items which shall be part of the GSE/Tool P/N 98D27403003002.
