Found this old hydraulic press on CL and picked it up yesterday. I can't tell it's capacity, but guessing maybe a 20 ton. What's cool is the hydraulic setup...it all works and doesn't leak (much). And the cable/crank/pin setup for quickly raising or lowering the bottom base bars. The seller didn't have any arbor plates to go with it, so I just ordered a new alloy steel set off ebay.
Some cleanup and maybe paint and this thing will have another life in my (soon to be built) shop-garage.
Saving another old piece of American Iron. (this was made in Los Angeles).
