No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies
to your individual working conditions. Use
this and other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result in
serious personal injury, damage to equip-
ment, or poor work results.
Like all machinery there is potential danger
when operating this machine. Accidents
are frequently caused by lack of familiarity
or failure to pay attention. Use this machine
with respect and caution to decrease the
risk of operator injury. If normal safety pre-
cautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-
ous personal injury may occur.
Infection, amputation, or death can result from contact with leaking hydraulic fluid under high
pressure. Additionally, leaking hydraulic fluid is a serious slip hazard and fire hazard. To reduce
these risks, anyone operating this machine MUST completely heed the hazards and warnings
below.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH LEAKS. Immediately
stop machine and depressurize hydraulic system
if a leak is discovered or suspected. Operating
hydraulic system with leaks may increase the
hazard of the situation and damage the machine.
COMPONENT REPLACEMENT. Only use high-
pressure hydraulic hose and steel hydraulic fit-
tings with compatible threads when replacing
components in the hydraulic system. DO NOT
overtighten or use soft metal fittings such as brass
or aluminum.
DEPRESSURIZE FOR MAINTENANCE. Always
depressurize hydraulic system before performing
any service or maintenance. Always stop machine
and disconnect power before relieving hydraulic
pressure. Verify hydraulic pressure is at 0 PSI
before proceeding with maintenance.
PREVENTING LEAKS. Always support and
restrain hydraulic hoses to minimize friction during
operation that could lead to machine damage that
may result in serious injury. Regularly inspect and
perform maintenance on the hydraulic system.
Following a regular schedule will decrease the
likelihood of damage to the machine and reduce
the risk of associated hazards.
INJECTION INJURIES. Immediately seek medi-
cal attention if injection injury occurs. Leaking
hydraulic fluid often has enough pressure to pen-
etrate skin, which can lead to infection, amputa-
tion, or death. Hydraulic fluid can enter the skin
through small wounds that are barely noticeable.
Minimizing the time between injury and removal
of the injected material is critical to successful
treatment.
CHECK FOR LEAKS. Never use your hands to
check for hydraulic leaks. Small leaks can be
invisible to the naked eye. Use a piece of wood or
cardboard to find suspected leaks.
EYE INJURIES. Safety glasses may not be suffi-
cient to protect against pressurized hydraulic fluid.
Depressurize hydraulic system before approach-
ing a known leak.
FLUID CONTAMINATION. Make sure hydraulic
system maintenance is performed in a clean and
dust-free work area. Remove all contaminants
from near hydraulic system openings and compo-
nents prior to maintenance, to prevent debris from
entering the hydraulic system. Always use lint-free
rags when cleaning components. Contaminated
hydraulic fluid may damage the machine and
cause hydraulic system failure that can result in
serious injury or death.
