A hydraulic tool includes a head at a first end of the hydraulic tool, where the head is configured to apply a mechanical force to a work piece; a body including a first surface; a back portion including: a second surface at a second end of the hydraulic tool that is opposite the first end; a third surface that is between the first surface and the second surface, where the third surface is inclined with respect to the first surface and the second surface; an indicator light; and a window, at least a portion of which is positioned on the third surface, where the window covers the indicator light; and a grip that extends from the body away from the first surface.

The present disclosure provides a power tool including a housing and a hydraulic drive assembly at least partially supported in the housing. The housing includes a handle that supports a switch that activates the tool. The hydraulic drive assembly includes a pump assembly operably coupled to the motor assembly, a reservoir configured to contain hydraulic fluid in fluid communication with the pump assembly and in which a baffle is supported, a cylinder in fluid communication with the pump assembly which supports an auto-return valve therein, and a piston disposed in the cylinder and biased to a first position by a piston spring. The pump assembly includes a manifold housing that at least partially defines an inlet passageway that fluidly communicates the pump assembly and the cylinder and supports an inlet check valve.
