Hydraulic pumps

Use only rigid cribbing pieces to hold loads. Select solid wood or steel blocks that are capable of
supporting the load.
Keep hands and feet away from cylinder and work-piece during operation
Never exceed equipment ratings. Never attempt to lift a load weighing more than the capacity of the
smallest cylinder in the hydraulic system. Overloading will cause equipment failure and possible
personal injury.
Never set the relief valve higher than the maximum rated pressure of the pump. Higher setting may result
in equipment damage and personal injury.
Install pressure gauges to monitor system pressure. System pressure must never exceed maximum rated
pressure of the electric pump.
Do not pick up the hydraulic pump by the power cord, pendant control cord, or hydraulic hose.
Electrical pumps should never be used in a potentially explosive environment.
Ensure that the pump is properly grounded to guard against electrical shock.
Do not use kinked or damaged hydraulic hoses.
Carefully inspect the hydraulic couplers on pump, hoses, and other hydraulic tools before using. Never
connect tools with damaged couplers or damaged port threads. The damaged coupler(s) or damaged port
threads may cause equipment failure and possible personal injury.
Install couplers in a clean environment. Always prevent dirt or other debris from entering into the
cylinder or tool. Dirt or debris will damage the tool and result in equipment failure and possible personal
injury.
Before removing or tightening hose(s) or coupler(s), always release hydraulic pressure in system .
Never handle pressurized hoses; escaping oil under high pressure can penetrate the skin, causing serious
injury. Seek medical aid immediately if injured.
When the pump is not in use, release system pressure, remove the hose(s) and use the dust cap to recover
the port.
Do not drop anything on hydraulic hoses.
Do not use equipment in temperatures of 150°F (65°C) or higher. Overheating will soften seals and
weakens hose materials, resulting in oil leaks or other equipment failure.
Ensure the electric power supply is compatible with the electric pump.
Always disconnect the electric pump from the power supply when performing maintenance or repair.
