Additional Safety Instructions for Hydraulics
1. Be familiar with the hazards of hydraulic injection injuries. Leaking hydraulic fluid may have enough
pressure to penetrate skin. Never use your hands to check for suspected hydraulic leaks.
Hydraulic fluid that is injected into skin is a medical emergency that may cause infection, disability,
amputation or death.
The average injection injury may be a small wound that has barely broken the skin. Do not be fooled
by this type of injury. Immediately get to an emergency medical facility!
Minimizing the time between the injury and when the injected material is removed is critical to
minimizing the seriousness of the injury.
2. Use a piece of cardboard to check for suspected hydraulic leaks. Pressurized hydraulic fluid may cause
injection injuries and can be extremely hot. Never use your hands to check for suspected hydraulic
leaks.
3. Protect your eyes around hydraulic systems. Safety glasses may not always protect your eyes from hot,
pressurized fluid. The best way to protect yourself is to stay away from leaks until you can depressurize
the system.
4. Stop the machine if you notice a hydraulic leak. Allowing the machine to continue running with a leak
may increase the hazard of the situation.
5. Depressurize the hydraulic system before attempting to adjust any hydraulic lines or fittings. Stop the
resaw, open the conveyor speed valves, and make sure the pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
6. Depressurize the hydraulic system before attempting any maintenance or service. Stop the resaw, open
the conveyor speed valves, and make sure the pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
7. Regularly inspect and perform the proper maintenance on the hydraulic system. A well-maintained
hydraulic system will have much few problems and hazards than a neglected system.
8. Make sure any hydraulic system maintenance is performed in a clean and dust-free work area. Remove
any sawdust, grime or water from hydraulic system openings or components before maintenance.
Always use lint-free rags when wiping components.
9. Only use high pressure hydraulic hose and steel hydraulic fittings when replacing components in the
hydraulic system. Do not use brass or aluminum.
WARNING
:
Additional Safety Instructions for Machine Lifting
1. Use enough capacity of forklift to raise or move the machine.
2. Pay special attention to the machine balance while in lifting.
3. Have another person to help guiding the way when lifting the machine.
4. Make sure the fork of the forklift protrudes over the machine bottom.
5. Do not raise the machine too high as this will cause poor stability.
6. Forklift should be driven by experienced personnel only.
