Warnings
Hydraulic Hose:
•
Inspect high pressure hoses and couplings before use to
prevent injury.
•
Replace hoses when signs of damage are present.
•
Do not let the hose kink, twist, curl or bend so tightly that oil
flow within the hose is blocked or reduced.
•
The minimum bending radius: R>5 inch.
•
Too small of a bending radius will kink and destroy the high pressure hydraulic
hose.
•
Before operating the hydraulic power pack, tighten all hydraulic
hose connections with the proper tools.
•
Do not overtighten.
•
Connections should be tightened securely and leak-free.
•
Over tightening can cause premature thread failure.
•
Shut off the electric motor before breaking any hydraulic
connections in the system.
•
Should a hydraulic hose ever rupture, burst, or need to be disconnected, immediately
shut off the hydraulic power pack.
•
Never attempt to grasp a leaking pressurized hose with your hands.
•
The force of the escaping hydraulic fluid could cause serious injury.
•
Do not subject the hose to potential hazards such as:
•
fire
•
sharp surfaces
•
extreme heat or cold
•
heavy impact
•
Hose material and coupler seals must be compatible with the hydraulic fluid.
•
Keep hoses away from contact with corrosive materials such as creosote-impregnated
objects and some paints.
•
Consult the manufacturer before painting a hose.
•
Never paint hydraulic couplers.
•
Hose deterioration due to corrosive materials can result in serious personal
injury.
