SAFETY
HIGH PRESSURE FLUID LEAK HAZARDS
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FROM HIGH PRESSURE HYDRAULIC OIL
LEAKS PENERATING SKIN:
DO NOT OPERATE equipment with oil or fuel leaks.
KEEP all hydraulic hoses, lines and connections in GOOD CONDITION and TIGHT before applying
system pressure.
RELIEVE HYDRAULIC PRESSURE before disconnecting lines or working on the system.
REMOVE and replace hose if you suspect it leaks. Have a qualified service facility test it.
HIGH PRESSURE FLUID LEAKS CAN BE INVISIBLE.
WHEN CHECKING FOR HYDRAULIC LEAKS AND WORKING AROUND HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS:
ALWAYS WEAR safety glasses and impenetrable gloves.
USE paper or cardboard to search for leaks.
DO NOT USE hands or body parts to search for leak.
KEEP hands and body AWAY from pin holes and nozzles ejecting hydraulic fluid.
Hydraulic fluid may cause gangrene if not surgically removed immediately by a doctor familiar with this
form of injury.
Use caution when removing Hydraulic Tank cap.
Tank contents maybe under pressure.
Allow oil to cool before removing cap.
Relieve oil pressure before removing cap slowly.
Stay away from hot oil that may spray from tank or hoses.
