Warnings
WARNING
THERMAL EXPANSION HAZARD
Fluids subjected to heat in confined spaces, including hoses, can create a rapid rise in pressure
due to the thermal expansion. Over-pressurization can result in equipment rupture and serious
injury.
• Open a valve to relieve the fluid expansion during heating.
• Replace hoses proactively at regular intervals based on your operating conditions.
PLASTIC PARTS CLEANING SOLVENT HAZARD
Many solvents can degrade plastic parts and cause them to fail, which could cause serious
injury or property damage.
• Use only compatible water-based solvents to clean plastic structural or pressure-containing
parts.
• See Technical Data in this and all other equipment instruction manuals. Read fluid and
solvent manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and recommendations.
TOXIC FLUID OR FUMES HAZARD
Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin,
inhaled, or swallowed.
• Read Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using.
• Store hazardous fluid in approved containers, and dispose ofit according to applicable
guidelines.

severe burns:
• Do not touch hot fluid or equipment.
