SAFETY FIRST
2.0 SAFETY ISSUES
Read all instructions, warnings,
and cautions carefully.
Follow
all safety precautions to avoid
personal injury or property damage during
system operation.
Enerpac cannot be
responsible for damage or injury resulting from
unsafe product use, lack of maintenance or
incorrect product and/or system operation.
Contact Enerpac when in doubt as to the safety
precautions and operations. If you have never
been trained on high-pressure hydraulic safety,
consult your distribution or service center for a
Enerpac Hydraulic safety course.
Failure to comply with the following cautions and
warnings could cause equipment damage and
personal injury.
A CAUTION is used to indicate correct operating
or maintenance procedures and practices to
prevent damage to, or destruction of equipment
or other property.
A WARNING indicates a potential danger that
requires correct procedures or practices to avoid
personal injury.
A DANGER is only used when your action or lack
of action may cause serious injury or even death.
WARNING: Wear proper personal
protective gear when operating
hydraulic equipment.
WARNING:
Stay clear of loads
supported by hydraulics. A cylinder,
when used as a load lifting device,
should never be used as a load holding device.
After the load has been raised or lowered, it
must always be blocked mechanically.
DANGER: To avoid personal
injury keep hands and feet
away from cylinder and
workpiece during operation.
WARNING:
Do not exceed
equipment ratings. Never attempt
to lift a load weighing more than
the capacity of the cylinder. Overloading
causes equipment failure and possible
personal injury. The cylinders are designed
for a max. pressure of 350 bar [5,000 psi]. Do
not connect a jack or cylinder to a pump
with a higher pressure rating.
Never set the relief valve to a higher
pressure than the maximum rated
pressure of the pump. Higher
settings may result in equipment damage
and/or personal injury.
WARNING: The system operating
pressure must not exceed the
pressure rating of the lowest rated
component in the system. Install pressure
gauges in the system to monitor operating
pressure. It is your window to what is
happening in the system.
