I've got a small frame shop press with a bottle jack . 20 ton IIRC Typical auto shop (blue paint)
I also have a fairly nice self contained hydraulic power pack. (motor pump and reservoir as a package, came off a warehouse stacker)
Is there a best way to marry the two? I'm not really enamoured with "spring retract", but could put up with it if needed.
At first pass, it would seem that the check valve and bleed screw are the key points.
Oh! And getting the fluid back into the pump reservoir... Just a dump hose from the fill port? ;-)
