SAFETY FIRST
2.0 GENERAL HYDRAULIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
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:
Do not exceed equipment ratings.
Overloading causes equipment failure and possible
personal injury. The nut splitter is designed for a
maximum pressure of 700 bar [10,000 psi]. Do not connect the
nut splitter to a pump with a higher pressure rating.
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.
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
fl
ames and heat. Excessive heat will soften
packings and seals, resulting in fl uid 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.
IMPORTANT:
Hydraulic equipment must only be
serviced by a qualifi ed hydraulic technician. For repair
service, contact the Authorized ENERPAC Service
Center in your area. To protect your warranty, use only ENERPAC
oil.
WARNING:
Immediately replace worn or damaged
parts with genuine ENERPAC parts. Standard grade
parts will break causing personal injury and property
damage. ENERPAC parts are designed to fi t properly and
withstand high loads.
