SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Due to the weight of the press, lifting equipment and the help of an assistant
will be required during installation. Secure the press to a firm level floor using
suitable anchor bolts (not supplied).
• Before starting work, check for cracked welds, loose or missing bolts, a
damaged screen (if fitted), or any structural damage. Do not operate if any
of these conditions exist. Have repairs made only by your service centre.
• Before work, always ensure that hydraulic hoses and couplings are
completely sound.
•
NEVER
tamper with the press components or modify them. The safety valve is
calibrated and sealed at the factory; do not attempt to change the setting.
• Use only the recommended hydraulic oil.
• The components of this press are designed to withstand the rated load. Do
not substitute any other components or exceed the rated load of the press.
• Before applying pressure, ensure the workpiece is firmly secure and stable.
•
ALWAYS
clean up spills of hydraulic oil immediately as this can be dangerous
in a workshop environment.
•
DO NOT
let any person who is unfamiliar with hydraulic presses use the press
unless they are under direct supervision.
• Keep children and unauthorised personnel away from the work area.
•
ALWAYS
position the (optional) safety screen directly front of the workpiece.
•
ALWAYS
apply the load under the centre of the ram. Offset loads can
damage the ram and may cause the work piece to be ejected.
•
ALWAYS
ensure the work piece is properly supported by the press bed.
• When using accessories such as pressing plates, be certain they are
centered below the ram and are in full contact with the bed.
• Parts being pressed may shatter or be ejected from the press. Always use
adequate guards, and wear eye protection and protective clothing when
using this press.
• Keep hands and fingers away from parts that may pinch or shift.
•
NEVER
use extension tubes to increase the length of the pump handle.
Excessive effort can cause damage and/or accidents.
• Wear approved impact safety goggles and heavy duty work gloves.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in damage to the equipment, or
serious personal injury.
