WARNING !
The hydraulic velocity fuse (HVF) must be properly installed! The HVF
is attached to the elbow fitting in the rod port of the cylinder. Do not use a
swivel fitting between the HVF and cylinder. If the HVF is installed
improperly, it will not lock up in the event of a catastrophic hydraulic line
break.
WARNING !
Use properly rated hoses only! Never use fittings or hoses that are not
properly rated for the intended use.
WARNING!
Never exceed the rated capacity of the lift! Overloading, or uneven
loading, could result in load instability and cause serious personal injury.
CAUTION!
Any time that the velocity fuses have been tripped, owner must investigate
the cause of the trip and ensure any necessary corrective actions have
been taken prior to resumption of normal lift operation. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
CAUTION!
Spilled hydraulic fluid is very slippery, and may also present a fire hazard.
Clean up all spilled hydraulic fluid to prevent personal injury or equipment
damage.
