ESSENTIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read the
instructio
ns
manual carefully and practise using the equipment before application.
Use protective equipment such as safety goggles, boots and gloves.

Define stable zones for applying the load and safety zones for operators, separating them through the use of hoses of enough length.
Block loads mechanically once the movement has been completed and avoids operating underneath them.
Use the entire
cylinder’s useful support surface, both on the head and the base. Be prepared to use tilting saddles if applying side loads.
Remove loads before carrying out maintenance operations and always work in clean, well-lit areas.
Include control elements (pressure gauges) in the installation in order to enable the operator to monitor the pressure in the system and ensure that
the equipment’s nominal capacity is never exceeded. Be prepared to use safety valves and accessories if safety criteria demand it.
The pump controls should be activated manually, as should the connections between elements equipped with couplers.
Once you have finished using the device, check that it has not been damaged, clean it and protect it ready for storage.
Clean the couplers before connecting and make sure the connections are perfect (first insert as far as the coupler will go and then screw in by
hand). A bad connection may result in improper functioning and may even generate a safety hazard.
Install the device in such a way as to ensure that the hoses are not subjected to sharp or forced bends or thrust actions that may cause them to
break.
Do not modify the device (welded parts, lengthening drive levers, etc.) without consulting the manufacturer.
Do not use the hoses for transporting the device. Use the handles on the cylinders (when appropriate) and set the pump lever to the transportation
position.
When filling the pump with oil, always use Larzep hydraulic oil or another oil of similar characteristics. Fill only to the indicated level and remember
that the cylinder piston should be back.
Before starting operation, check that the installation is correct, the operator position is safe and the working zone is out of bounds to all personnel.
In all cases, the operator should have received adequate training regarding the handling of the device and logical safety criteria associated with the
movement of heavy loads.
WARRANTY
LARZEP, S.A.
guarantees its products against all design and manufacturing defects during two years from the date of purchase. This guarantee
does not include the ordinary wear of both metal and non-metal parts, abuse, using the equipment beyond its rated capacity and any wear or
damage incurred as a result of using a hydraulic fluid which is not recommended by
LARZEP, S.A.
Please note that if the equipment is disassembled or serviced by anyone other than an authorized service dealer or by
LARZEP, S.A
., this
guarantee is rendered null and void.
In the event of a warranty claim, return the equipment, to
LARZEP, S.A
. or the authorized dealer which sold you the hydraulic equipment,
LARZEP,
S.A
. will repair or replace the faulty equipment, whichever is deemed most appropriate.
LARZEP, S.A.
shall not be held liable for any consequential
damages or losses, which may occur as a result of faulty equipment
The correct union of a pump to a cylinder via a hydraulic hose constitutes a machine designed for lifting, pulling,
folding and retaining operations, etc., that, due to its high thrust capacity requires safe use in order to eliminate the risk
of accidents.
Choose the most suitable model for the application from the wide range available, and make sure that it will not exceed
80% of its nominal capacity during normal operation.
Do not expose the equipment to intense heat sources (welding).
