2. Product safety
LUKAS products are developed and manufactured to ensure the best performance and
quality with intended use.
The safety of the operator is the most important consideration in the product design.
Furthermore, the operating instructions are intended to help in using LUKAS products safely.
In addition to the operating instructions, all generally applicable, statutory and other
binding rules for accident prevention and for environmental protection must be heeded and
disseminated.
The device may only be operated by appropriately educated, safety trained persons, since
otherwise there is a risk of injury.
We would like to point out to all users that they should read the operating instructions carefully
before using the equipment and comply with the instructions there without reservation.
We further recommend that a qualified instructor train you in the use of the product.
WARNING / CAUTION!
The operating instructions for the hoses, the accessories and the connected
devices must also be heeded!
Even if you have already received instructions on how to use the equipment, you should still
read the following safety notes again.
Please ensure that no body
parts or clothing are caught
between the visibly moving
parts (e.g. piston protection
plate and cylinder).
It is prohibited to work under
loads if the load is lifted
exclusively by hydraulic
equipment. If this work
is absolutely imperative,
additional mechanical
supports must be used.
Wear protective clothing,
safety helmet with visor,
safety shoes and protective
gloves
Inspect the equipment before
and after use for visible
defects or damage
The responsible department
must be informed immediately
of any changes (including to
the operating behaviour)! If
necessary, the device must
be deactivated immediately
and secured!
Check all lines, hoses and
screwed connections for
leaks and externally visible
damage. Rectify any damage
immediately. Squirting
hydraulic fluid can result in
injuries and fires.
WARNING / CAUTION!
Ensure that the accessories and connected equipment used are suitable for
the maximum operating pressure!
