Safety
Keep bystanders
safely away
Keep bystanders at a safe distance from all equipment. Never allow bystanders to
touch specimens or equipment while the test is running.
Wear proper clothing Do not wear neckties, shop aprons, loose clothing or jewelry, or long hair that
could get caught in equipment and result in an injury. Remove loose clothing or
jewelry and restrain long hair.
Remove flammable
fluids
Remove flammable fluids from their containers or from components before you
install the container or component. If desired, you can replace the flammable
fluid with a non-flammable fluid to maintain the proper proportion of weight and
balance.
Know compressed gas
hazards
Most servohydraulic systems contain accumulators that require a high-pressure
gas precharge (pressures that exceed 138 bar [2000 psi]). In addition, some
systems can contain devices, such as static supports, that are pneumatically
operated. High-pressure devices are potentially dangerous because a great
amount of energy is available in the event of an uncontrolled expansion or
rupture.
