Sealey PS980.V2 Instructions

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. INTRODUCTION
PS980 has a cast puller yoke and a forged bearing separator. The
separator covers bearing diameters from 90 to 105mm and the extension
rods provide a maximum reach of 420mm. The 10 ton hydraulic ram is
also compatible with sets PS981.V2 and PS982.V2. The PS985.V2 is
similar to PS980.V2 except that the splitter covers bearings from 120 to
150mm diameter and ram extensions and a plug are included.

3. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure all Health and Safety, local authority, and

general workshop practice regulations are strictly adhered to
when using tools.
DO NOT use tools if damaged or worn.

Maintain the tools in good and clean condition for best and safest

performance.
Ensure all threads are clean and well lubricated.

Always check that puller is correctly assembled and is square

with the workpiece.
If vehicle is raised, ensure it is adequately supported with axle

stands, ramps, etc. as appropriate.
Wear suitable clothing to avoid snagging. Do not wear jewellery.

Tie back long hair.
Wear approved eye protection. A full range of personal safety

equipment is available from your Sealey dealer.
Where possible shield workpiece with canvas or similar to provide

protection against failed parts.
DO NOT heat puller jaws when heating a gear or bearing as this

will affect the temper and, therefore, the strength of the material.

DO NOT use any tool or lever to turn the ram tommy bar, use
hand effort only.
DO NOT hit workpiece, or ram, with a hammer if workpiece has not
moved with maximum puller force applied. Use a larger capacity puller.
Account for all tools and parts being used and do not leave them
in or on the vehicle.
IMPORTANT: Always refer to the vehicle manufacturer's service
instructions, or proprietary manual, to establish the correct
procedure and data. These instructions for use are provided as a
guide only.
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the
safety instructions in Section 2.
Confirm that the bearing is retained by interference fit (parallel
or taper) only.
Assemble splitter around rear of bearing and clamp together using
the studs and nuts (fig.1.A & B) provided.
Screw the fully threaded ends of the two puller rods (fig.1.C)
into the splitter.
Remove nuts (fig.1.D) from free ends of rods and place yoke
(fig.1.E) over thread shanks.
Retain yoke with flat washers provided (fig.1.F) and nuts, but
do not tighten at this stage.
Adjust ram T-handle (fig.2.A) so that tommy bar (fig.2.B) is
approximately 80mm above ram end cap (see fig.2) and screw
ram body into yoke until ram piston (fig.1.G) contacts end of
shaft. If shaft has a 'centre' machining fit centre adaptor to
piston before screwing ram down. If ram will not reach shaft
use extension piece(s). Note: Only use centre adaptor where
end of shaft has a matching 'centre' machining. PS985
contains a plug which provides a thrust pad for the piston
in applications where the shaft is hollow.
Adjust position of yoke to get ram piston on shaft centre and
then tighten yoke retaining nuts.
Turn T-handle clockwise, by hand only, to pull workpiece from shaft.
Do not screw T-handle in further than 25mm (1") from end of the
ram (see fig.2). If workpiece requires additional movement then
unscrew T-handle to 80mm from end of ram, screw ram body
down so that centre adaptor again contacts shaft and then
continue to draw workpiece up shaft.
IMPORTANT: The maximum safe load for the puller can be
achieved by hand effort alone. The use of tools or levers on
the tommy bar to increase the load will damage the splitter
and may result in injury. Such misuse will also invalidate the
warranty.
WARNING! If the workpiece does not move when maximum
puller force is applied, DO NOT hit it, or the puller, in an
attempt to jar it free. Damage to puller/workpiece and
personal injury may result. Use a larger capacity puller.
