1.5.3 Hydraulic Power Safety
Power Source
• Refer to the rules and regulations applicable to the power
source operating your hydraulic drive.
• Do not connect or disconnect hydraulic lines while system is
under pressure.
• Keep all hydraulic lines away from moving parts and pinch
points.
• Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure will cause serious
injury if it penetrates the skin surface (serious infection or
toxic reaction can develop). See a doctor immediately if
injured.
• Use metal or wood as a backstop when searching for
hydraulic leaks and wear proper hand and eye protection.
• Check all hydraulic components are tight and in good
condition. Replace any worn, cut, abraded, flattened, or
crimped hoses.
• Clean the connections before connecting to equipment.
• Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the hydraulic fittings
or hoses with tape, clamps, or adhesive. The hydraulic
system operates under extremely high pressure; such repairs
will fail suddenly and create a hazardous and unsafe
condition.
Lockout
• Always place all hydraulic controls in neutral and relieve
system pressure before disconnecting or working on
hydraulic system.
