Safety precautions
Read this instruction for use fully. Follow all safety precautions
to avoid personal injury or property damage during equipment
operation. SKF cannot be responsible for damage or injury resulting
from unsafe product use, lack of maintenance or incorrect equipment
operation. In case of any uncertainties as regards the use of the
equipment contact SKF.
Failure to comply with the following could cause equipment damage
and personal injury.
•
Do ensure that the equipment is only operated by trained
personnel.
•
Do wear proper personal protective gear, such as eye protection
and protective gloves, when operating the equipment.
•
Do inspect the equipment and all accessories carefully before use.
•
Do not use damaged components or modify the equipment.
•
Do use clean recommended hydraulic oils (SKF LHMF 300,
LHDF 900 or similar).
•
Do not use glycerin or water based fluids as a pressure medium.
Premature equipment wear or damage can result.
•
Do not use the equipment above the stated maximum hydraulic
pressure.
•
Do not extend the handle in order to reduce the required force to
reach maximum pressure. Use hand pressure only.
•
Do not apply high pressure oil to the oil inlet connection.
•
Do not use the injector with accessories, which are rated below
the maximum working pressure of the injector.
•
Do not use washers on sealing surfaces.
•
Do use a pressure gauge to monitor the oil outlet pressure,
wherever possible.
•
Do ensure that all the air has been removed from the hydraulic
system before pressurising the hydraulic system.
•
Do prevent the workpiece (e.g. bearing, gearwheel or similar
item) from being forcibly ejected upon sudden release of
pressure (e.g. by use of retaining nut).
•
Do not handle high pressure pipes or hoses. Oil under pressure
can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. If oil is injected
under the skin, seek medical attention immediately.
•
Do not use damaged high pressure pipes or hoses. Avoid sharp
bends and kinks when connecting pipes or hoses. Sharp bends
and kinks will internally damage the pipe or hose leading to
premature failure. Applying pressure to a damaged pipe or hose
