Review on πŸ”§ TEMCo HP0000 Hydraulic Capacity Guarantee by Scott Gafur

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for the price.

The hose that comes with this unit is 4 feet long. This is too small for most applications. There's usually a hydraulic shop in most major cities, and a 10-foot hydraulic hose rated at 10,000 psi makes things more practical. Take a 4ft hose and connect it to the fittings. My 10 foot hose cost me $82. The ultimate test makes this pump 5 stars for the price. Using a Temco HC0014 cylinder, he raised the middle of my house at half power. The home has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a 2 car garage and 20" tall under beams. The pump runs slowly with high pressure and takes 50 seconds to move the cylinder 6 inches. Compared to all the things that come with having to happen at work that's not a lot of time. It takes 17 minutes of pumping time to walk 10ft. For a full-time pro with just one pump, that may not be fast enough. After continuous use on 2 pumps walking 12ft went down the motor was too hot to hold with the back of your hand but not too hot for the pump Electric motor For a full day of heavy use you may need a fan blowing over the motor The hydraulic hose got a little warm , so the pump and cylinder worked fine. There is no gradual release mechanism. When you press the back of the control pedal, the house will fall down immediately. The return of the cylinder is fast enough. My foundation specialist used it from 1 floor cutout and 3 tunnels to get to 3 foot areas. The pedal controls made operation very easy for the operator. And again a longer hose was required. I would recommend at least 8 feet. Our 10ft hose was perfect and could be 9ft long.
