eCompact and simple
design, easy operation
Compact and quiet, VDS Series
variable vane pumps are economi-
cal and easy to handle. A simple
design allows use in a wide range
of hydraulic systems.

¡Handling
zT h e di re c t i o n of r ot at io n f or t hi s
pump is clockwise (rightward) when
viewed from the shaft side.
xDrain piping must be direct piping up
to a point that is below the tank fluid
level, and back pressure due to pipe
r e s i s t a n c e s h o u l d n o t e x c e e d
0.03MPa.
cWhen adjusting pressure, pressure
is i nc re a se d by c lo ck w is e (r ig ht-
ward) rotation of the adjusting screw
and decreased by counterclockwise
(leftward) rotation.
vWhen a d justing t h e flow ra t e , the
flow rate is decreased by clockwise
(rightward) rotation of the adjusting
sc re w a nd i n cr ea s ed b y c ou n te r-
clock w i se (lef t w ard) rot a tion. Th e
graph on the right provides general

load discharge rate.

nThrust Screw
The thrust screw is precision adjust-
ed at the factory during assembly.
Never touch the thrust screw.
See callout 9 in the cross-section
diagram on page V-4.
mInitial Operation
Before operating the pump for the
first time, put the pump discharge
side into the no-load state and then
repeatedly start and stop the motor
to bleed all air from inside the pump
and the suction piping. After confirm-
ing that the pump is discharging oil,
continue the no-load operation for at
least 10 minutes to discharge all the
air from the circuit.
,For the hydraulic operating fluid, use
an R&O type and wear-resistant type
of ISO VG32 to 68 or equivalent (vis-
co si ty in de x o f at le as t 9 0) . U se

.The operating temperature range is
15 to 60°C. When the oil temperature
at startup is 15°C or less, perform a
warm-up operation at low pressure

15°C. Use the pump in an area where
the temperature is within the range
of 0 to 60°C.

drive systems that impart a radi-

the pump shaft.
M oun t t he p u mp s o i t s pum p

⁄2Provide a suction strainer with a
filtering grade of about 100 µm

the tank, use a 25 µm line filter.

⁄5At st artu p, repeat th e i nching
operation (start-stop) to bleed air
from the pump and pipes.
⁄6Equip an air bleed valve in cir-
cuits where it is difficult to bleed
air before startup.
⁄7To ensure proper lubrication of
th e p um p' s rubbin g s ur fa ce s,
supply oil to the interior of the
pump before starting operation.
