Q 1. What is the main purpose of the 180700V2 hydraulic ball joint separator?

A. The 180700V2 is designed to remove stubborn HGV ball joints using a 12 tonne hydraulic ram, reducing manual effort on heavy commercial suspensions.

Q 2. What jaw dimensions does the 180700V2 provide for HGV applications?

A. It offers a 70mm jaw opening, 36mm throat width and 50mm throat depth, suiting many common heavy vehicle steering and suspension ball joint sizes.

Q 3. How does the 180700V2 improve safety versus traditional separation methods?

A. Controlled hydraulic force reduces reliance on hammer blows, lowering risk of collateral damage to steering components and improving technician safety on HGV front axles.

Q 4. Can I still use the mechanical screw with the 180700V2 separator?

A. Yes, it includes a mechanical screw option, letting you choose between manual or hydraulic operation depending on job access and required separation force.

Q 5. Which HGV brands are typically compatible with the 180700V2 tool?

A. Its suitable for many heavy goods vehicles, including models from Volvo, RVI, Scania and Mercedes-Benz where compatible ball joint dimensions are present.

Q 6. How does the strengthened fork and lever benefit daily workshop use?

A. The heavy-duty fork and lever construction allow higher loads and repeated use, delivering long-term durability under demanding commercial suspension service conditions.

Q 7. Is the 180700V2 suitable for roadside or mobile HGV service work?

A. Yes, its self-contained hydraulic design makes it practical for workshop use and mobile service vans handling fleet ball joint maintenance.

Q 8. When should I choose 180700V2 over the 08070000 mechanical separator?

A. Choose 180700V2 when you regularly encounter seized commercial ball joints where hydraulic force significantly reduces time, effort and risk compared with mechanical separation.

Q 9. Can the 180700V2 work with existing Sykes Pickavant HGV tooling?

A. It is designed to complement existing Sykes Pickavant suspension tools, giving workshops a hydraulic option alongside mechanical separators and upgrade kits.

Q 10. How much physical strain does the 180700V2 remove from technicians?

A. The 12 tonne hydraulic ram does the heavy work, meaning technicians apply minimal manual effort compared with levering or hammering traditional separators.

Q 11. Is the 180700V2 appropriate for agricultural and construction machine joints?

A. Yes, where joint dimensions match its capacity, its equally useful on agricultural tractors and construction equipment ball joints.

Q 12. What routine checks should be carried out on the 180700V2 separator?

A. Regularly inspect the ram, fork, jaws and threads for damage, keep contact surfaces clean, and follow Sykes Pickavant guidance for hydraulic tool maintenance.
