OVERVIEW
This body repair kit is designed for bending chassis frames and repairing dents
in vehicle body panels. In most cases, the kit will only return the vehicle body
parts to approximately their original position. Additional work will be required
to complete the repair.
There are two attachments which can be connected to the pump unit.
• The Hydraulic Ram is for use in larger spaces where greater force is
needed and where there is sufficient room. It requires a solid
immovable base, directly in line with the damaged area.
• The Spreader Wedge is used in tighter spaces where the Ram and
other accessories will not fit.
THE ATTACHMENTS
Several different attachments are provided that may be used in conjunction
with the Hydraulic Ram dependant upon the nature of the damage.
• The Flat Base is used to spread the load of the Hydraulic Ram. It
should be connected to the static end of the Hydraulic Ram using
the Male Connector.
• The Rubber Head is typically used for popping dents out of sheet
metal such as doors and body panels when plugged into the
moving end of the Hydraulic Ram or the Extension Tubes.
• The Square V-Head is used to align the force of the Hydraulic Ram
when bearing against an angled frame, and may be attached to
the Hydraulic Ram or the Extension Tubes.
• The Wedge Head is used to repair small dents and areas located in
angles and tight spaces and attaches to the Hydraulic Ram or
Extension Tubes.
• The Male Connector plugs into the female end of the Hydraulic Ram.
• The Angled Toe and Plate Head are normally attached to the
extension tubes but could be used as a substitute for the flat base if
space is limited.
• The Serrated Cap is used for pushing during frame repair. It may be
plugged into either end of the Hydraulic Ram or Extension Tubes.
• The Extension Tubes plug together in different combinations to reach
the desired length.
• The Hydraulic Spreader Wedge is used in restricted spaces when the
Hydraulic Ram cannot be used. Connect the wedge directly to the
hose of the pump unit.
