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 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 use clean recommended hydraulic oils
(SKF LHMF 300, LHDF 900 or similar).
• Do use a pressure gauge to monitor the oil
outlet pressure.
• Do treat high pressure hoses with extreme
caution.
• Do visually inspect the hose for damage and
wear spots before using.
• Do check end connections for wear, rust, cracks
or other deteriorations.
• Do check the working and burst pressures of
the hoses before using.
• Do always use clean, filtered pressure medium
to prolong hose life.
• Do always clean, drain and coil hoses after use.
• Do replace the hose before 6 years of age
• Do remove air from hoses.
• Do not use damaged components or modify the
equipment.
• Do not use glycerine 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 use the pump with accessories, which
are rated below the maximum working pressure
of the injector.
• Do not use washers on sealing surfaces.
• Do not handle pressure hoses under pressure.
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 pressure hoses. Avoid
sharp bends and kinks when connecting hoses.
Sharp bends and kinks will internally damage
the hose leading to premature failure.
Applying pressure to a damaged hose may
cause it to rupture.
• Do not use a hose with cuts or wires showing
through the outer cover.
• Do not use a hose with a bubble, blisters or
kinks.
• Do not lift the equipment by the hose or
couplings.
• Do not bend the hoses within a distance of
50 mm (2 inch) from the end of the crimped
sleeve.
• Do not fix a hose at the sleeves.
• Do not exceed the minimum bending radius and
pressure rating for the hose.
• Do not runover or crush the hose with heavy
vehicles.
• Do not use hoses with corroded or leaking end
connections.
• Do not use a dirty fluid medium.
• Do not bend the hose over scaffolding or pull
heavy equipment with the hose.
• Do not let hose support its own weight off a
tower or building.
• Do not expect hydraulic hoses to last forever.
