Caution Level Rating

• Before installation of the wire rope lubricator onto the cable,
ensure the work area is clean and safe to work in with adequate
space around the cable where the Viper Collar will be attached.
• Ensure buckles and straps, D shackles and attachment points
used to anchor the Viper Lubricator are rated for a minimum WWL
of 500kg.
• Check hydraulic hose, couplings air lines and fittings for damage
or wear, before connecting to grease pump and Viper lubricator
Collar. Carry out visual inspection of the Viper Collar to ensure it
has not been damaged during transport or handling. Damage to
the casing that prevents it from sealing correctly will severely
reduce the unit's ability to force lubricant into the ropes core and
could be a potential safety hazard.
• Always ensure the return grease line feeds to a container of
suitable size for receiving the excess from the Viper lubricator.
Grease allows to flow from the return line without being captured
may cause a serious slip or environmental hazard.
