Hydraulic power tool

A hydraulic tool including a fluid reservoir, a pump, an electric motor, a cylinder, and a piston, the hydraulic tool comprising:

• a pressure rail fluidly coupled to the pump;
• a sequence valve fluidly coupled to the pressure rail and the cylinder;
• a shuttle valve in fluid communication with the sequence valve, the pressure rail, and the fluid reservoir;
• a first trigger button;
• a second trigger button;
• and
• a controller receiving a first signal when the first trigger button is triggered, causing the electric motor to rotate in a first rotational direction, causing the pump to provide fluid to the cylinder through the sequence valve, causing the shuttle valve to be moved to a first position to prevent flow from the sequence valve to the fluid reservoir,
• the controller receiving a second signal when the second trigger button is triggered, causing the electric motor to rotate in a second rotational direction, opening a fluid path from the cylinder to the fluid reservoir to depressurize the pressure rail;
• the shuttle valve being moved to a second position when the pressure rail is depressurized to allow flow from the sequence valve to the fluid reservoir.
