V1.0
1.
Use the correct tool for the job. This tool was designed for a specific
function. Do not modify or alter this tool or use it for an unintended
purpose.
2.
The maximum load is 10 tons. Do not exceed this rated capacity. Never
apply excessive force to a workpiece and always use the pressure gauge
to accurately determine the applied load.
3.
Inspect the press before each use. Do not use if any component is bent,
broken, cracked, leaking or showing other damage. Do not use the press
after a shock load until a qualified technician has examined the press.
4.
Check to ensure that all bolts and nuts are tight.
5.
Only use this shop press on a surface that is stable, level and not slippery.
The surface must be capable of sustaining the weight of the shop press
and the load.
6.
Ensure that the workpiece is center-loaded and secure. An unbalanced
load may slip off the heel blocks or bed frame.
7.
Keep hands and feet away from the bed frame area at all times.
8.
Do not use the shop press to compress a spring or any other item that
could disengage and cause a potential hazard. Never stand directly in
front of a loaded press and never leave a loaded press unattended.
9.
Do not allow an untrained person to operate the press.
10. Do not use brake fluid or other improper fluid in place of hydraulic oil.
Avoid mixing different types of oil when adding hydraulic oil. Only good
quality hydraulic jack oil can be used.
11.
Do not expose the press to rain, snow or inclement weather.
12. Bolt the press to the floor if it is to be used on bulky or unstable items.
POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS
1.
Do not use any power tool with a malfunctioning power switch or control.
A power tool that fails to respond to the controls is dangerous and can
cause an injury. A qualified technician must repair and verify the power
tool is operating correctly, before it can be used.
2.
Shut the power off and disconnect the press from the power supply (if
possible) before making any adjustments, changing accessories, cleaning,
servicing or when storing. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the tool accidentally.
