SAFETY FIRST
2.0 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
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 free 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.
WARNING: USE ONLY RIGID PIECES
TO HOLD LOADS. Carefully select steel
or wood blocks that are capable of
supporting the load. Never use a hydraulic
cylinder as a shim or spacer in any lifting
or pressing application.
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 700 bar [10,000 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.
CAUTION: Avoid damaging hydraulic
hose. Avoid sharp bends and kinks when
routing hydraulic hoses. Using a bent or
kinked hose will cause severe back-
pressure. Sharp bends and kinks will internally
damage the hose leading to premature hose failure.
