SAFETY FIRST
IMPORTANT RECEIVING
INSTRUCTIONS
Visually inspect all components for shipping damage.
Shipping damage is
not covered by warranty. If shipping
damage is found, notify carrier at once. The carrier is
responsible for all repair and replacement costs result-
ing from damage in shipment.
SAFETY ISSUES
Read all instructions, warnings, and cau-
tions carefully. Follow all safety precau-
tions to avoid personal injury or property
damage during system operation. Cooper
Power Tools cannot be responsible for damage or injury
resulting from unsafe product use, lack of maintenance
or incorrect product and/or system operation. Contact
Cooper Power Tools when in doubt as to the safety pre-
cautions and operations. If you have never been trained
on high-pressure hydraulic safety, consult your distribu-
tion or service center for a free Enerpac Hydraulic safety
course.
Failure to comply with the following cautions and warn-
ings could cause equipment damage and personal in-
jury.
A CAUTION is used to indicate correct operating or main-
tenance procedures and practices to prevent
damage to, or destruction of equipment or other prop-
erty.
A WARNING indicates a potential danger that requires
correct procedures or practices to avoid personal injury.
A DANGER is only used when your action or lack of ac-
tion may cause serious injury or even death.
WARNING : Wear proper personal protective
gear when operating hydraulic equipment.
WARNING: Do not exceed equipment ratings . Never
attempt to lift a load weighing more than the capacity of
the cylinder. Overloading causes equipment failure and
possible personal injury. The cylinders are designed for
a max. pressure of 700 bar. Do not connect a jack or
cylinder to a pump with a higher pressure rating.
Never set the relief valve to a higher pres-
sure than the maximum rated pressure of
the pump. Higher settings may result in
equipment damage and/or personal injury.
WARNING: The system operating pressure
must not exceed the pressure rating of the
lowest rated component in the system. Install
pressure gauges in the system to monitor
operating pressure. It is your window to what is happen-
ing in the system.
CAUTION: Avoid damaging hydraulic
hose.
Avoid sharp bends and kinks when
routing hydraulic hoses. Using a bent or
kinked hose will cause severe back-pressure.
Sharp bends and kinks will internally damage the hose
leading to premature hose failure.
Do not drop heavy objects on hose.
A sharp impact may cause internal dam-
age to hose wire strands. Applying pres-
sure to a damaged hose may cause it to rupture.
IMPORTANT: Do not lift hydraulic equip-
ment by the hoses or swivel couplers. Use
the carrying handle or other means of safe
transport.
CAUTION: Keep hydraulic equipment
away from flames and heat
. Excessive
heat will soften packings and seals, result-
ing in fluid leaks. Heat also weakens hose
materials and packings. For optimum performance do
not expose equipment to temperatures of 65°C [150°F]
or higher. Protect hoses and cylinders from weld spatter.
WARNING: Only use hydraulic cylinders
in a coupled system.
Never use a cylinder
with unconnected couplers. If the cylinder be-
comes extremely overloaded, components
can fail catastrophically causing severe personal injury.
IMPORTANT: Hydraulic equipment must only
be serviced by a qualified hydraulic technician.
For repair service, contact the Authorized
ENERPAC Service Center in your area. To protect your
warranty, use only ENERPAC oil.
WARNING : Immediately replace worn or dam-
aged parts with genuine ENERPAC parts.
Standard grade parts will break causing per-
sonal injury and property damage. ENERPAC parts are
designed to fit properly and withstand high loads.
