hydraulic fluid
under the skin can
cause serious injury and
even result in death. If an
injection injury occurs, seek
medical treatment immedi-
ately.
8.
Do not inspect hoses and fittings for leaks using your
bare hands. A pin-hole leak can inject hydraulic fluid
through the skin, with the potential for serious injury.
9.
Avoid locating equipment in any environment for
which it was not designed and which may create a
dangerous operating condition such as an explosive
atmosphere (e.g., gas, dust), high heat (e.g., molten
metal, furnace), chemicals, extreme moisture, etc.
10.
Avoid bodily contact with hydraulic fluids. Some
hydraulic fluids may irritate or injure the eyes and
skin. Check with your fluid suppliers to obtain this
information.
11.
Use only E.H. Wachs parts and materials when servic-
ing the equipment. Substitute parts or materials could
produce a hazardous operating condition.
12.
When piping your equipment, use only materials of
adequate size and strength to suit the flows and pres-
sures of the system. Consider all safety factors when
selecting the strength of materials to allow for shock
and over-pressure conditions which could occur.
