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
hose or swivel couplers. Use other means of safe
transport.
CAUTION:
Keep hydraulic equipment away from
flames and heat. Excessive heat will soften packing and
seals, resulting in fluid leaks. Heat also weakens hose
materials and packing. For optimum performance do
not expose equipment to temperatures of 65
0
C (150
0
F)
or higher. Protect hoses and spreaders 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.
DANGER:
Only use hydraulic spreaders in a coupled
system. Never use a spreader with unconnected
couplers. If the spreader becomes severely overloaded,
components can fail catastrophically causing severe
personal injury or death.

4.0 INITIAL INSTALLATION
BEFORE OPERATING PUMP
4.1 Working Pressure
The Tool’s maximum working pressure is 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm
2
). Make sure that all hydraulic equipment such as pumps,
hoses, etc. used with this spreader are rated at 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm
2
) operating pressure, refer to the table above for
details.
4.2 Install Hydraulic Connections
When making connections with quick disconnect couplings, make sure the couplings are fully engaged. Threaded
connections such as fittings, gauges, etc. must be securely tightened and leak free. Attach hose to 3/8" NPT port.
Connect matching coupler halves together hand tight only.
WARNING:
Loose or improperly threaded fittings can be potentially dangerous if pressurized, however, severe over
tightening can cause premature thread failure. Fittings need to be tightened secure & leak free. Never hold or stand
directly in line with any hydraulic connections while pressurizing. Never grab, touch or in any way come in contact with a
hydraulic pressure leak. Escaping oil can penetrate the skin and a serious injury can result.
CAUTION:
Do not subject the hose to potential hazards such as sharp surfaces, extreme heat or heavy impact. Do not
allow the hose to kink or twist. Inspect each hose for wear before it is used.
