TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY: DO NOT USE A
DAMAGED OR MALFUNCTIONING PRESS
If in doubt about the safety of your project, we advise
you to have the work done by a professional familiar
with applicable safety practices.
Like all shop equipment there is potential danger
when operating a shop press. Accidents are
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to
pay attention. Use this Press Pin Set with respect
and caution to decrease the risk of operator injury.
If normal safety precautions are overlooked or
ignored, serious personal injury may occur.
OPERATION
Each pin in the set has its own rating between 2
and 20 Tons. DO NOT exceed this rated capacity.
Never apply excessive force to a workpiece and
always use the pressure gauge to accurately
determine the applied load
NEVER stand directly in front of a loaded press and
never leave loaded press unattended
AVOID OVERLOAD. Exceeding rated press capacity
can damage the press, shatter a workpiece, or
launch a press pin causing a severe impact injury.
When the press has reached its maximum pressure
or the pump lever becomes stiff to operate, the
press has reached its limit. Never use a cheater
pipe for extra leverage.
OPERATION SAFETY. Applying pressure to parts
with a press can cause them to spring out and
strike you or bystanders with deadly force. Verify
that bystanders are a safe distance away from
the press during operations. Make sure that you
are wearing leather gloves and safety glasses
with a face shield. Heavy leather boots with extra
toe protection are also required. Under some
conditions, a hard hat may be needed.
WORKPIECE SUPPORT. When a part is pressed
free, a workpiece may shift suddenly or fall from
the press, causing a crushing injury to your foot
or leg. Use a catch basket and support long or
awkward workpieces with stands or chains,
or have an assistant support the end of a long
workpiece during pressing operations.
UNSAFE WORKPIECE. Applying pressure to
unstable objects can cause the object to eject,
causing an impact injury. Never apply pressure to
balls, round objects, springs, or elastic items.
AVOIDING PROJECTILE INJURIES. Being hit by a
launched workpiece or press tooling can cause
severe impact injury or death. When using a press,
stand out of the way of any possible projectile path.
Never press with rods or pins that are long enough
to shift off-center and kick out under a load. Never
stack rods and spacers to create an extended
press pin. If pressing must occur with an extended
