Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the instrument.
Purge all air from the hydraulic liquid.
Do not use a sensor for gas that has been used with hydraulic liquid.
CAUTION
Do not exceed the maximum pressures stated in the appropriate
component manual for the unit under test.
Reduce pressure at a controlled rate when venting to atmosphere.
Carefully de-pressurize all pipes (tubes) to atmospheric pressure before
disconnecting and connecting to the unit under test.
Observe absolute cleanliness when using the instrument.
Severe damage can be caused if equipment connected to this instrument is
