I recently bought a 20 ton shop press. Right now, the hydraulic pump sit perpendicular to the press, so stick straight out. Is there reason I can't move the pump so it's sitting parallel to the press.
Here's a pic of my press and the pump I'm talking about. Ignore the disaster of a mess, I'm on the process of reorganizing the shop so I can fit a 74 Bronco in with my Acadian.
This is how it sits now. It's annoying as it has to sit quite a way from the wall. I'd like to mount it vertically. Would that effect the performance of it. I know jacks sit vertically so thought why not try
Thanks in advance.
