Escaping  fluid  under  pressure  can  have 

sufficient force to penetrate the skin causing 

serious personal injury. Fluid escaping from 

a  very  small  hole  can  be  almost  invisible. 

Use  a  piece  of  cardboard  or  wood,  rather 

than hands to search for suspected leaks.

keep  unprotected  body  parts,  such  as-

face, eyes, and arms as far away as pos-

sible  from  a  suspected  leak.  Flesh  in-

jected  with  hydraulic  fluid  may  develop 

gangrene  or  other  permanent  disabilities.

If injured by injected fluid, see a 

doctor at once. If your doctor is not 

familiar with this type of injury,ask 

him  to  research  it  immediately 

to  determine  proper  treatment.

WARNING!
