PUMP
• Do not exceed the hydraulic pressure rating noted on the pump nameplate or tamper with
the pump's internal high pressure relief valve. Creating pressure beyond rated capacities
can result in personal injury.
• Retract all cylinders in the system before adding fluid to prevent overfilling the pump
reservoir. An over-fill can cause personal injury due to excess reservoir pressure created
when cylinders are retracted.
ELECTRIC-DRIVEN MOTOR
Electrical work must be performed and tested by a qualified electrician per local
directives and standards.
• Disconnect the pump from the power supply and relieve pressure before removing the
motor case cover, or performing maintenance or repair.
• Check the total amperage draw for the electrical circuit you will be using. For example: Do
not connect a pump that may draw 25 amps to a 20 amp fused electrical circuit.
• Never use an ungrounded power supply with this unit.
• Changing the voltage is an involved and, if incorrectly performed, hazardous procedure.
Consult the manufacturer for specific information before attempting rewiring.
• Wire pump motors for counterclockwise rotation when viewed from the shaft end of the
motor.
• Do not attempt to increase the power line capacity by replacing a fuse with another fuse of
higher value. Overheating the power line may result in fire.
• Exposing electric pumps to rain or water could result in an electrical hazard.
• Avoid conditions that can cause damage to the power cord, such as abrasion, crushing,
sharp cutting edges, or corrosive environment. Damage to the power cord can cause an
electrical hazard.
HOSES
• Before operating the pump, tighten all hose connections using the correct tools. Do not
over-tighten. Connections should be only secure and leak-free. Over-tightening can cause
premature thread failure or high pressure fittings to split at pressures lower than their rated
maximum operating pressure.
