Features and Benets
The Pileco HP-60 Hydraulic Power Unit is primarily designed to be used to actuate the hydraulic cylinder that initiates
the rst blow of a diesel hammer. However, the Power Unit can be used for any hydraulic application requiring uid power
that falls within its range of specications. These include, but are not limited to: pilegates, spotters, and winches.
The HP-60 features remote functionality for both the engine and the hydraulic bank from up to 1,000 feet away. The
engine may be started and stopped as well as throttling between run and idle speeds. Four of the hydraulic banks can
be operated via remote, and all may be operated locally at the directional control valve.
The HP-60 features and a large, integrated hydraulic tank (over 63 gallons @ 90° ll) to provide an ample supply of
hydraulic uid and easily dissipate heat from the system. Premium Stucchi quick disconnects can be coupled under
pressure and have virtually no spillage upon disconnecting.

PRECAUTIONS
Failure to Follow Could Cause Damage and / or Injury
1. Ensure that ball valve to gear pump is open prior to starting unit
2. Ensure that there are no visible uid leaks on the unit prior to operating or shipping
3. Only use Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel in the unit
4. Ensure that re extinguisher is present and charged
5. Ensure that quick disconnects are clean prior to connecting to minimize contaminates in system
6. Check electrical wires often, replace any that are frayed or worn
7. Disconnect the exhaust ange prior to removing lid of the unit, damage to exhaust system will occur if not
8. It is possible that high pressure can stay trapped in hydraulic lines, ensure that they are only disconnected at
Quick Disconnects. It is good practice to cycling the valve handles with the engine stopped prior to connecting
or disconnecting any hoses to relieve pressure
9. Always inspect and clean quick disconnects prior to connecting, debris will damage the hydraulic system
10. Do not tighten quick disconnects with wrenches or other tools, the ats are only for disconnecting if necessary
11. When lling hydraulic uid, ll through the tee prior to the lter to minimize contaminants
12. Ensure that hydraulic uid systems temperatures do not exceed 160°F
2.0. OPERATIONS
This section will feature setup and operating instructions for the HP-60 Power Unit. For information on the setup and
operations of a diesel hammer in conjunction with the Power Unit, refer to Pileco, Inc.’s Operating Manual:
http://www.pileco.com/images/OperatingManual_Pileco.pdf
It can also be reached by going to www.pileco.com, select “Manuals / Documents” and then select “Operations” to
download the pdf.
A Note About Heat Prior to Operating the Unit
As hydraulic uid circulates through the system, heat will begin to build in the uid. This is inuenced by the speed of the
uid, the restrictions it encounters and the time that it is run. Always pay attention to the temperature gauge integrated
into the hydraulic tank level gauge and ensure that the temperature of the uid system does not exceed 160°F. Use cau-
tion when connecting or disconnecting quick disconnects because the heat of the uid gets transferred into them and
they can get very hot.
Note that valves 2-6 (or 2-4 on a 4-bank) are set to 10 GPM regardless of engine RPM. This means that the higher the
engine RPM, the more uid has to bypass through the Directional Control Valve. This causes higher pressure and that in
turn creates more heat in the uid system. If banks 2-6 are to be used for extended periods, it is recommended to run
the unit at a lower RPM to reduce the heat introduced to the system.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HP-60
In the standard application of ac-
tuating the trip cylinder of a diesel
hammer, connect the hydraulic
hose to the bank labeled “TRIP”.
This will provide the highest ow
rate to actuate the cylinder in the
shortest time possible. See section
1.3 for ow rates and trip times.
2.1 Connecting Hydraulic Lines
The HP-60 power unit features Stucchi VEP15P hydraulic quick disconnects. While it should not be necessary to do,
these couplers have the ability to be safely coupled and decoupled under pressure and leak virtually no oil (0.033 ml
per Stucchi). Regardless, it is good practice to relieve pressure by cycling the valve handles at the DCV prior to connect-
ing or disconnecting lines.
Prior to making up connection, remove dust caps and inspect both male and female couplers to ensure that there is no
dirt or debris, either on the threads or on the faces that could enter the hydraulic system. If it is necessary to clean the
face of the female quick disconnect, the connector can be pushed in for access to the face (see below).
Do not tighten with wrenches or other tools. If the coupler is not making up completely by hand, there is an issue with
the connection. Back the connection off, clean and inspect both ends for debris, damage or deformation.
It is also advised to screw the male and female dust caps together while the hose is connected to protect the threads on
them. After disconnecting hoses, always replace the dust caps.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HP-60
2.2 Explanation of Starting and Control
The HP-60 Power Unit has the ability to be controlled either locally from the unit or from the remote. This includes start-
ing and stopping the unit, throttling from running speed down to idle and back up to running speed, and controlling four
of the valves.
By default, the unit will start in Auto mode. That means that upon pressing the “Start” button on the remote, the engine
will start, then ramp up to the set running speed and stay there. When the “Stop” button is pushed, the unit will ramp
back down to idle speed and then stop.
The unit may be switched from Auto mode to Manual Mode. If started in Auto (the default), upon switching to Manual
Mode, the speed may now be controlled by the RPM Up and RPM Down buttons, either on the Control Panel or with the
remote. The Unit is set to two speeds, a Run and an Idle. Due to differences in piston sizes, running at a high RPM can
be extremely dangerous if used with a small piston. By default, the Units will be programmed to run at an appropriate
speed for the hammers that they will be used with.
Pressing the RPM Up or RPM Down buttons will change between the Run Speed and the Idle Speed. Prior to shutting the
engine down remotely, the Unit will have to be placed back into Auto Mode. If the Unit is at Idle Speed at the time, it will
ramp back up to Running Speed before starting the shutdown process. If the Stop button is pressed locally while run-
ning at high speeds, the engine will immediately stop at the RPM at which it was running, which will damage the engine
over time.
If the application changes for the Unit, it is possible to change the run speed in the eld. See section 3.6 for details on
how to change the setting, but use extreme caution in changing settings and follow the procedures exactly. If there are
questions at any time, stop and call your Pileco representative.
The rst four banks of the Directional Control Valve can be actuated with either the valve handle levers on the valve
bank or with the remote control. The remote has 12 buttons and a power button, the top four are for starting, stopping
and controlling the throttle. The next eight are for controlling the hydraulic banks. With the engine RPM at Running
Speed, either press and hold the remote button for the corresponding valve or use the valve handle at the valve bank to
engage the hydraulic line.
Connect additional lines to the
other quick disconnects. Note
that the VEP quick disconnects
have a yellow O-ring that indi-
cates when the coupler is made
up completely. If the O-ring is
still visible, the coupler is not
made up completely.
