1.0 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 resulting from
damage in shipment.
SAFETY FIRST
2.0 SAFETY ISSUES
Read all instructions, warnings and cautions
carefully. Follow all safety precautions to
avoid personal injury or property damage
during system operation. Enerpac cannot be responsible for
damage or injury resulting from unsafe product use, lack of
maintenance or incorrect product and/or system operation.
Contact Enerpac when in doubt as to the safety precautions
and operations. If you have never been trained on high-
pressure hydraulic safety, consult your distribution or service
center for a free Enerpac Hydraulic safety course.
Failure to comply with the following cautions and warnings
could cause equipment damage and personal injury.
A CAUTION is used to indicate correct operating or
maintenance procedures and practices to prevent damage to,
or destruction of equipment or other property.
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 action
may cause serious injury or even death.
WARNING: Wear proper personal protective gear
when operating hydraulic equipment.
WARNING: Stay clear of loads supported by
hydraulics. A cylinder, when used as a load lifting
device, should never be used as a load holding
device. After the load has been raised or lowered, it must
always be blocked mechanically.
WARNING: USE ONLY RIGID PIECES TO HOLD
LOADS. Carefully select steel or wood blocks that are
capable of supporting the load. Never use a hydraulic
cylinder as a shim or spacer in any lifting or pressing
application.
DANGER: To avoid personal injury keep hands and
feet away from cylinder and workpiece during
operation.
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 [10,000 psi]. Do not connect a jack
or cylinder to a pump with a higher pressure rating.
DANGER: Never set the relief valve to a higher
pressure than the maximum rated pressure of the
pump. Higher settings may result in equipment
damage and/or personal injury. Do not remove relief valve.
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 happening 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 damage to hose wire strands.
Applying pressure to a damaged hose may cause it to
rupture.
IMPORTANT: Do not lift hydraulic equipment 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, resulting 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.
DANGER: Do not handle pressurized hoses.
Escaping oil under pressure can penetrate the skin,
causing serious injury. If oil is injected under the skin,
see a doctor immediately.
