THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
The use of shop presses and their accessories is subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but only by the exercise of
intelligence, care, and common sense. It is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in the use and operation of the equipment who are
careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the equipment and its proper use. Examples of hazards are components being pressed
and breaking resulting in flying parts that are not secured from hitting the operator, the set up in the press is not secure, guards, shields or protective
blankets are not used, improperly securing adjustments on the press, overloading and off-center loads.
METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
• Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before operating this press.
• Prior to use, make sure the press is securely anchored to a concrete floor, installed and operated in accordance with OSHA, state and
local safety standards
• Visual inspection of the press should be made before use, checking for signs of cracked welds, bent bolster locating pins, loose or missing bolts,
leaks, or any other structural damage. Corrections must be made before using the press.
• No alterations shall be made to this press.
• Operators and observers shall wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA Standards.
• Parts being pressed may splinter, shatter, or be ejected from the press at a dangerous rate of speed. Due to a variety of press applications, it is the
press owner's responsibility to provide adequate guards, eye protection and protective clothing to the press operator.
• Always use a bearing shield when pressing bearings.
• Keep hands, arms, feet, and legs out of work area. Accidental slippage can result in personal injury.
• Remove all loads from movable bolster before adjusting bolster height. Beware of falling bolster.
• Press only on loads supported by movable bolster and press plates. Do not support loads on floor or press frame legs.
• When using any accessories, such as press or arbor plates, be certain they are centered on the movable bolster and in full contact with both sides
of the bolster.
• Use caution when positioning work to be pressed to ensure the item to be pressed cannot be ejected at a dangerous rate of speed.
• Avoid off-center loads. Do not use spacers or extenders between the press ram plunger and the item being pressed. If there is not enough ram
stroke, adjust the height of the movable bolster.
• Before applying load, be certain all movable bolster supporting pins are fully engaged. Make sure movable bolster lift cables (if equipped) are slack
before pressing on bolster.
• Always use an accurate force gauge to measure pressing force.
• Some attachments, adapters and accessories are rated lower than the press capacity. Do not exceed their rating.
• Do not tamper with the press load-limiting device settings.
• Do not go near leaks. High pressure hydraulic fluid can puncture skin and cause serious injury, gangrene, or death. Do not use finger or skin to
check for leaks. If injured, seek emergency medical help as immediate surgery is required to remove the fluid.
• Release hydraulic pressure before loosening any fittings.
• Failure to heed and understand these instructions and markings may result in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
