to remove the gasket I use a scraper or a die grinder with pads a gasket scraper should not hurt it I am assuming it is cast iron

Look at the tag it was built in 1958 so more than likely you will need to rebuild the pump or replace it. The tank you should really look over for rust inside and it is only set at 65 psi so would that be enough air for you I would look for something newer myself

If you are looking used make sure you look it over well. Check the tank for oil if it has much oil in it it will need work done to it and I would walk away from it Also check the amps on the motor dont go by what it says as most over rate the HP rating some will say 5 or 6 hp when all you...

When I saw the red jack it had me thinking maybe they made red ones but I have never seen anything but orange. Now im thinking at some point in time the pump was repaired and while it was out of the jack it was painted red. I intent to restore it to the orange

I think they all were orange and mine was painted at some point. It is time consuming im working on another jack and the hours add up fast. I dont mind spending the time to fix it either way we both will have a good jack when we finish them

I fully intend to rebuild it once I get my other jack fixed. I have got by with ramps and a trolly jack for many years and had the hoist where I worked but I figured it was time to have a better jack and feel the old jacks are built better and seen how other members restored jacks I wanted to do...

EDGAR In your picture did you paint the jack red the reason I ask is my jack is red and I cant see any orange indication anyplace on it except for the hydraulic unit itself but I thought they all were orange

I never tried to take that bolt out I just squeezed the 2 pins and it came off

I paid 35.00 for the jack but after I picked it up I went to Niagara Falls and went to the casino and walked out 100.00 ahead so in the end after 50.00 in gas and going to eat I broke out even so over all it was worth it to me.

First is my 734 I bought it 30 years ago all I ever did was put a kit it in once. Next is newer version 734 a mechanic was throwing out because the anvil wont keep sockets on it so I just kept it as it works. Next is a 3/8 207 also 30 years old. Then is a 6500 for the bigger stuff Then the last...

It is a work in progress next step is to straighten the side plates in the press

I thought all these jacks had a T handle but this one is not. I cleaned it up and noticed a drip at the bottom plug, what is the purpose of this plug ? to access the piston ? The gasket was cracked so I found an oring for now for it and added some oil to it. I dont see any other leak so I jack...

As you can see the jack is a red colour which made me think it had been painted but I looked all over and dont see any orange paint underneath the red. The jack unit is orange though.

Well I decided to take the drive and make a day of it stopping at a few other places, Then since Niagara Falls wasnt far I went over there

who would ever pay 4600.00 for that compressor snap on still must have the first one ever made at that price

chicago pneumatic 30 years and still going strong

That looks to be the same so the chart says 3 HP at 230 V is 17 amps so when I said to use a 20 amp breaker that looks like it would be what is needed. Am I missing something else here ?
