Safety valve for SKS couplings
If the return line is not correctly coupled such that the oil cannot return then a safety valve
integrated into the control handle actuates in order to protect the equipment and the
operator. This causes hydraulic oil to seep harmlessly from the end of the handle.
Move the switching valve on the hydraulic power unit immediately to the „0" position and
connect the coupling parts together correctly.
WARNING!
Danger due to incompletely coupled SKS return line!
If the return line (T) is not correctly connected with the SKS coupling system
the device can move independently until the safety valve responds!
Therefore:
»
»
Always check SKS couplings for correct locking.
Make sure that hands and other parts of the body are not within
the working range of the moving parts.
