It is the responsibility of the end user to ensure that a suitable hydraulic supply is installed. It is
recommended that a relief valve should also be incorporated in the return line to prevent excessively
high pressures in the annular side of the hydraulic cylinders should the return to tank become
blocked for any reason.
