SECTION 1.0: INTRODUCTION
This instruction manual contains information on the operation and maintenance of the FT-20 portable hydraulic
PowerPak. To obtain optimum performance and many years of trouble-free service, operate the PowerPak properly
and follow maintenance procedures carefully.
Read this manual before operating the PowerPak and retain it for future reference. If requested, FTI will provide
this manual in the language of the end-user.
1.1 ABOUT THE FT-20 POWERPAK
The FT-20 is a portable PowerPak that supports the FTI system of tooling. Because of its small size and light
weight, the FT-20 is particularly useful for work in areas with difficult or restricted access. It may be used to
operate FTI hydraulic puller units in the Little Brute and Medium Brute family. The FT-20 may also be used with
the Big Brute (BB-30) puller unit, though its operation will be slow when compared to the larger FT-200 PowerPak.
The FT-20 contains an air operated hydraulic pump that generates up to 10,000 pounds per square inch (psi)
hydraulic pressure (4,000 psi for the FT-20-4K). The air motor is driven by compressed air at 90 to 120 psi and
20 cubic feet per minute (cfm) flow through a 3/8-inch minimum inside diameter air hose. See Section 6.0 for
PowerPak configuration and schematics.
NOTE: The FT-20 is shipped with hydraulic fluid already in the unit. The FT-20 is shipped with a non-
vented cap on the reservoir. This must be replaced with the supplied vented cap and dipstick prior to
operation. If there is a need to fill the FT-20 with hydraulic fluid or drain the fluid for reshipment, please
refer to Section 4.3 for instructions.
1.2 IDENTIFICATION OF FT-20 SERIES POWERPAKS
There are three different models in the FT-20 series. The primary identification method is identified on the decal on
the side of the manifold.
• FT-20 is the original pump.

• FT-20A is an updated model. This is the most common model.
• FT-20-4K is a FT-20A with a reduced pressure setting of 4,000 psi.

SECTION 2.0: SAFETY
Consult the appropriate puller unit manual for safety precautions before installing a puller unit onto a PowerPak.
When used in accordance with these instructions, the FT-20 is safe and easy to use. All general safety precautions
associated with hydraulic and pneumatically operated power tools should be observed. Many of these are noted in
this section. Ultimately, the operator is responsible for personal safety; however, the following general safety
precautions should be observed. Also see Figure 2.0-1.
CAUTION: Set the FT-20 PowerPak on a level surface. If the surface is out of plane, there is a risk of the
FT-20 PowerPak unit vibrating off the surface.
Read manual before using Always wear eye protection Always wear ear protection
Figure 2.0-1
Safety Stickers
1. Wear eye and ear protection when operating the FT-20.
2. Disconnect the air supply when:

• Maintenance is to be performed.
• Hydraulic hose is disconnected.
• PowerPak is not in use.
3. In the event of a ruptured or leaking hydraulic hose, IMMEDIATELY RELEASE THE TRIGGER AND
DISCONNECT THE AIR LINE from the PowerPak at the air input. Never use your hands to grasp a leaking
hose under pressure. The force of escaping hydraulic fluid can cause serious injury.
4. DO NOT attempt to disconnect the hydraulic hose while the pump is running.
5. DO NOT expose hoses to potential hazards, such as extreme heat or cold, sharp surfaces, heavy impact, or
vehicular traffic.
6. DO NOT allow hoses to kink, twist, curl, or bend so tightly that the oil flow within the hose is blocked or
reduced.
7. Periodically inspect the hose for wear or damage which could cause premature failure of the hose and possibly
result in injury.
8. Hose material and coupler seals must be compatible with the hydraulic fluid used.
49050-REV M 3
9. Hoses must not come in contact with toxic materials, such as creosote-impregnated objects and some paints.
Keep clean and never paint couplers or hoses. Hose deterioration due to chemical degradation may cause the
hose to fail under pressure.
10. DO NOT exceed the hydraulic pressure (psi) rating recommended or tamper with the internal high-pressure
relief valve. Creating pressure beyond rated capacities may result in personal injury and/or damage to the
PowerPak.
11. DO NOT exceed the recommended air pressure of 90 to 120 psi (6.2 to 8.3 bar).
12. Before operating the pump, tighten all hose connections using the proper tools. Do not overtighten the
connections. Connections need only be tightened securely and leak-free. Overtightening may cause premature
thread failure, or high-pressure fittings to split at pressures lower than their rated capacities.
13. Periodically pump clean oil through the entire length of the hose, then pressurize the hose and check for leaks
at the crimped connectors, between the hose material and the fitting, and between the fitting and coupler.
14. Before replenishing the oil level, retract all cylinders to prevent overfilling the pump reservoir. Overfilling
may cause personal injury due to excess reservoir pressure created when the cylinders are retracted.
15. Do not use the hose to move attached equipment. Stress may damage the hose and cause personal injury.
16. DO NOT use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
IMPORTANT: FTI completed a risk assessment on this unit at our factory. Any modifications done by a third
party or the final user are excluded from that risk assessment. As a result, modifications done by a third party or the
final user nullify the CE marking.

SECTION 3.0: FT-20 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Become familiar with these instructions before operating the FT-20.
3.1 HYDRAULIC POWERPAK SETUP PROCEDURE AND OPERATION
See Section 6.0 for parts identification.
Conduct the following procedures BEFORE actuation:
1. Remove the pipe plug and attach the main air hose quick disconnect to the air inlet fitting. The air supply must
be clean and dry, and 90 to 120 psi at a minimum flow of 20 cfm.
NOTE: Clean the top plate of the pump before removing the filler cap and dipstick to prevent
contaminants from entering the oil supply.
2. Remove the shipping plug from the reservoir fill port and replace with the supplied vented cap.
3. The fill line on the reservoir is 5/16 inch from the top. Visually inspect the oil level in the reservoir. When
operating, make sure the reservoir vented cap is in place. The oil level should be within 5/16 inch of the filler
plug; if the pump is to be operated with the reservoir unvented, the oil level should be 3/4 inch from the filler
plug. If the oil level is low, replenish the hydraulic fluid per the instructions in Section 4.3.
4. Inspect all threads and fittings for signs of wear or damage and replace them if necessary.
5. Uncoil the hose assembly from the puller unit to be used and inspect all threads, couplings, and hoses for
damage and degradation. Replace if necessary.
6. Remove the dust caps from the Main Air

hydraulic fittings of the FT-20 and Supply Quick Connect
puller unit hose, and clean both couplers
prior to connecting to prevent
contaminants from entering the oil
supply. Thread the hydraulic hose
coupler from the puller unit to the quick
hydraulic coupler of the PowerPak. Air Quick
Couplers
NOTE: Ensure that the couplers on
both the PowerPak and hose fittings
are pushed firmly together, then Pump Quick
completely screwed together. Failure Hydraulic Coupler
to do so will prevent the oil from
returning to the pump when the
trigger is released. This will cause
the puller unit to stay in the retracted
position.

disconnects from the puller unit to the
coupler plug and coupler socket of the Figure 3.1-1
PowerPak. FT-20 PowerPak
49050-REV M 5
CAUTION
It is suggested that an automatic air line oiler/filter be installed as close to the pump as possible. Set oiler to
feed 1 to 3 drops per minute into the system. Use No. 10 SAE non-detergent oil. NOTE: An oiler package
(including gage, filter, lubricator, and fittings) is NOT included with the FT-20 but is available from FTI.
Please contact our Sales Department for details.
3.2 ACTUATION OF POWERPAK
CAUTION: Set the FT-20 PowerPak on a level surface. If the surface is out of plane, there is a risk of the
FT-20 PowerPak unit vibrating off the surface.
1. The PowerPak is an air-driven hydraulic unit and can be activated only when connected to a FTI puller unit or
remote trigger as described in Section 3.1.
2. Activate the FT-20 by depressing the trigger on the handle of the puller unit. An air logic valve opens, allowing
the main air supply into the air motor which drives the hydraulic pump. Hydraulic pressure is transmitted
through the hose to the cylinder of the puller unit, which then retracts the hydraulic piston.
3. Releasing the trigger allows the air logic valve to shift and air pressure in the puller unit barrel returns the puller
piston to the start position.
4. If actuation fails to take place, the trigger response valve may need to be adjusted. This is done by loosening
the brass nut on the trigger response valve. Connect the pump main air supply and the puller unit. Then, with
the puller unit trigger depressed, adjust the pilot screw in (clockwise) or out (counterclockwise). Turning the
pilot screw in makes the trigger more sensitive, while adjusting it out makes it less sensitive. Once the desired
sensitivity is achieved, retighten the brass nut. Different puller units may require this valve to be readjusted.
6 49050-REV M
SECTION 4.0: FT-20 MAINTENANCE
The FT-20 requires routine checking of the unit and periodic preventative maintenance to ensure safe, trouble-free
operation. No special maintenance is required. The following actions are suggested.
CAUTION:
Disconnect the PowerPak from air supply before performing maintenance or repair.
4.1 GENERAL CLEANING
1. Periodically clean the outer surfaces of the FT-20 and equipment used with the FT-20.
2. When not in use, ensure that the dust cap is reinstalled on the hydraulic coupler.
3. Keep all hose connections free of metal chips, dirt, and grime.
4. Keep the breather hole in the vented filler cap and dipstick clean and unobstructed.
5. The hydraulic oil should be replaced every 200 to 500 hours of use, depending on severity of use and
environmental conditions.
6. Always clean the hydraulic and air couplers prior to making connections.
4.2 CHECKING HYDRAULIC FLUID LEVEL
1. Clean the top plate, remove the filler cap and dipstick, and visually check the oil level in the reservoir after
every 40 hours of use.
2. The proper oil level is within 5/16 inch of the top of the reservoir when the puller unit’s mandrel is in its normal
starting position (mandrel extended and trigger released). The fill line on the reservoir is 5/16 inch from the
top.
4.3 FILLING HYDRAULIC FLUID RESERVOIR
1. Disconnect the puller unit from the PowerPak and the air supply when adding oil to the reservoir.
2. Clean the entire area around the vented filler cap and dipstick before removing the filler plug located to the right
and slightly behind the hydraulic quick coupler.
3. Remove the filler cap and dipstick. Insert a clean funnel with a flexible tube and strain the new oil through a
paper filter. If a flexible tube is not available, the pump shroud may need to be removed for access.
4. Fill with hydraulic fluid to within 5/16 inch of the top of the filler hole. The fill line on the reservoir is 5/16
inch from the top. See Section 1.3 for hydraulic fluid specifications.
5. Replace the filler cap and dipstick and make sure the breather hole in the filler cap and dipstick is open. Cycle
the PowerPak (with the puller unit attached) several times, and recheck the oil level in the PowerPak reservoir.
49050-REV M 7
4.4 CHANGING THE HYDRAULIC FLUID
1. After approximately 200 to 500 hours of use, the hydraulic fluid should be changed. The frequency of oil
changes will depend upon the general working conditions, severity of use, overall cleanliness, and care given
the PowerPak.
2. To drain the FT-20, remove the shroud and cover retainer screws and expose the reservoir. (If a drain plug is
present, unscrew the plug and drain the oil through the port.)
3. Drain the hydraulic fluid by pouring the oil over and out one corner of the reservoir.
4. Refill the reservoir with hydraulic fluid. See Section 1.3 for hydraulic fluid specifications.
5. Replace the pump on the reservoir, torquing the cover plate retaining screws to 25/30 in-lbs. Make sure the
reservoir gasket is in place.
6. Replace the shroud.
4.5 LUBRICATION AND AIR REQUIREMENTS
1. The air supply must be clean and dry, and provided at 90 to 120 psi. Volume must be a minimum of 20 cfm,
and a 3/8-inch inside diameter air hose is recommended.
2. FTI recommends that an automatic air line filter/oiler be installed in the air inlet line as close to the PowerPak
as possible. Set the oiler to feed 1 to 3 drops of oil per minute (one drop for every 50 to 75 cfm of air) into the
system. Use SAE No. 10 non-detergent oil.
