When working with this device, always wear appropriate safety equipment consisting of safety
gloves, safety glasses as well as non-skid safety shoes.

Do not wear loose clothing or accessories that may get caught up in moving parts. Tie long hair
up or cover it with a snood-type cap to avoid severe injuries.

Always stay vigilant while using this device and do not use it if you are tired or under the influ-

Set the press to the lowest position when refilling hydraulic oil. Only use high quality hydraulic
oil and under no circumstances brake fluid, alcohol, glycerine, detergent, engine oil, water, con-
taminated oil, or other inappropriate fluids.
•
Do not attempt to open the hydraulic cylinder as it is under constant pressure. Forcefully opening
it might lead to severe injuries and property damage.
•
This workshop press was designed for pressing, bending, and straightening purposes. It must
not be used for compression as compressed objects can shatter, explode, or be ejected from
the press and cause severe injuries as well as property damage.
•
Always centre work pieces on the bolster plates to prevent it from falling off or being squeezed
out once pressure is applied. Make further sure to keep your hands away from the pressure
piece.
