Safety
Instructions
Read and understand the
operator's manual before
attempting to operate any
equipment.
WARNING
Aeroquip hose, hose
fittings and assembly equip-
ment should be used only
with other Aeroquip hose,
hose fittings and assembly
equipment and Weatherhead
hose, hose fittings and
assembly equipment should
be used only with
Weatherhead hose, hose fit-
tings and assembly equip-
ment. Do not combine or use
Aeroquip or Weatherhead
hose, hose fittings and
assembly equipment with
each other, i.e. Aeroquip hose
with Weatherhead fittings, or
with hose, hose fittings or
assembly equipment supplied
by another manufacturer.
Eaton hereby disclaims any
obligation or liability (including
incidental and consequential
damages) arising from breach
or contract, warranty, or tort
(under negligence or strict lia-
bility theories) should
Aeroquip or Weatherhead
hose fittings or assembly
equipment be used inter-
changeably or with any
hose, fittings or assembly
equipment supplied by anoth-
er manufacturer, or in the
event that product instruc-
tions for each specified hose
assembly are not followed.

WARNING
Failure to follow
process and product instruc-
tions and limitations could
lead to premature hose
assembly failures, resulting
in property damage, serious
injury or death.
Aeroquip and Weatherhead
fitting tolerances are engi-
neered to match Aeroquip
and Weatherhead hose toler-
ances. The combination or
use of Aeroquip or
Weatherhead hose and hose
fittings with each other, i.e.
Aeroquip hose with
Weatherhead fittings, or with
hose or fittings supplied by
another manufacturer may
result in the production of
unreliable and/or unsafe
hose assemblies and is nei-
ther recommended nor
authorized by Eaton.
Safety Instructions
1. PREVENT UNAUTHO-
RIZED OPERATION.
Do not permit anyone to
operate this equipment
unless they have read and
thoroughly understand this
manual.
2. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
3. AVOID PINCH POINTS.
Do not rest your hand on
the crimp ring. Keep your
hands clear of all moving
parts. Do not allow anyone,
other than the operator,
close to the equipment
while it is in operation.
4. MAINTAIN DIES WITH
CARE. Dies used in the
ET1280 crimp machine are
hardened steel, offering
the best combination of
strength and wear resist-
ance for long life.
Hardened dies are gener-
ally brittle and care should
be taken to avoid any
sharp impact. Never
strike a die with a hard-
ened instrument.
5. USE ONLY SPECIFIED
AEROQUIP/WEATHER-
HEAD PRODUCTS.
Make hose assemblies
using only Aeroquip and
Weatherhead hose and fit-
tings specified for this
assembly equipment.
6. VERIFY CORRECT CRIMP
DIAMETERS.
Check and verify correct
crimp diameters of all fit-
tings after crimping. Do not
put any hose assemblies
into service if the crimp
diameters do not meet
Eaton crimp specifications.
7 . Make sure all dies are
completely in place and
the cage is positioned
properly on the pressure
plate.
PAGE
8. DO NOT OVER
PRESSURIZE. Do not
exceed the 10,000 psi
hydraulic pressure sup-
plied to the machine.
NOTE: All components used
to connect the pump and
crimp cylinder must meet
the criteria set forth in the
Material Handling Institute
Specification #IJ100 for
hydraulic jacking applications.
9. DIE CHANGE. DO NOT
INSERT/REMOVE DIES
WHILE THE POWER IS
ON OR MACHINE IS IN
OPERATION.
10. SECURE THE EQUIP-
MENT TO A STABLE
WORK SURFACE.
Prior to operation, secure
the crimp machine to a
stable work surface to pre-
vent the equipment from
tipping. See pages 4-5 for
mounting instructions.
11. UNPLUG THE POWER
SUPPLY WHEN NOT
IN USE.
12. KEEP WORK
AREA CLEAN.
Cluttered areas and
benches invite accidents.
