applications.
WARNING
Never exceed 5,000 psi (345 bar) when using cylinder attachments. Always use the
gauge provided with your Maintenance Set to verify the operating pressure.
While 5,000 psi (345 bar) is the maximum operating pressure when using
attachments, there are many setups requiring a lower maximum operating
pressure. In general, the maximum operating pressure decreases as you add more
extensions to the cylinder. WHENEVER A SETUP SEEMS UNSTABLE OR YOU
SEE EXTENSIONS BEND, STOP OPERATING PUMP IMMEDIATELY and use a
different method to perform the work. Failure to observe this warning will lead to
personal injury and/or equipment damage.
WARNING
Do not exceed capacity or stroke of cylinder. When using cylinder with
attachments, never exceed 5,000 psi (345 bar) and avoid using more than 80% of
the cylinder stroke.
WARNING
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.
WARNING
The cylinder saddle or attachment must fully engage the load and not be partially
engaged in any way.
WARNING
Do not lift off-center loads. Off-center loads place considerable strain on cylinders
and plungers and may be unstable.
WARNING
Stay clear of loads supported by hydraulics. After the load has been raised, it
should be blocked.
WARNING
Operate pump away from the load. Do not drop heavy objects on hose.
CAUTION
Avoid sharp bends or kinks when routing hydraulic hoses. Bends or kinks will
cause severe back pressure and will cause internal damage to the hose. Replace
worn or damaged hoses.
