WX210 - WX240 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 0 - 33
Risks from fluids in pressure systems
Pressurized fluids such as fuel or
hydraulic oil may penetrate the skin
or eyes, resulting in severe, poten-
tially fatal injury or blinding.
- Cut out this risk by depressurizing
the system before disconnecting
hydraulic or other lines.
- Tighten all connections before
pressurizing the system.
- Using a piece of card, search for
any leakages; be sure to protect
hands and body from fluids under
high pressure. Wear a face guard
or goggles to protect your eyes.
Seek medical advice immediately
after an accident. Any fluid that has
penetrated the skin must be re-
moved surgically within a few hours
to prevent severe infection (gan-
grene).
