BEWARE OF LEAKS
Hydraulic oil escaping under high pressure can pierce the skin and cause severe lesions. If you are injured by a jet of oil under pressure, immediately consult a doctor.
If you are in doubt about any leak, do not search with your hand: check with a piece of cardboard while protecting your hands and your body.
For your safety’s sake, replace worn hose.
