This attachment is used by fitting it to your Digga planetary drive, which operates on hydraulic fluid under pressure.
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin causing serious personal injury.
Fluid escaping from a very small hole can be almost invisible. Use a piece of cardboard or wood, rather than
hands to search for suspected leaks

. Keep unprotected body parts, such as face, eyes, and arms as far away
as possible from a suspected leak. Flesh injected with hydraulic fluid may develop gangrene or other permanent
disabilities.
