Safety Precautions:
Read and follow all the instructions and safety
warnings carefully prior to use of the
equipment. Failure to do so could result in
equipment damage or failure of the
equipment or personal injury. Hi-Force will not
be held responsible for any damage to the
equipment or personal injury resulting from
unsafe use of the product, lack of
maintenance or incorrect operation. If in doubt
on the correct usage of any Hi-Force
equipment, contact your nearest Hi-Force
office or distributor. If the operator has not
been trained on high pressure hydraulic
equipment and its safe use consult your local
Hi-Force sales office who can offer you training
courses for operators.
All operators should ensure that all necessary
personal protective equipment as specified by
their employer is worn when operating any
hydraulic equipment. Safety shoes, safety
glasses/ visor and
protective gloves should be
worn at all times. All relevant risk assessments
should be completed prior to use of the
equipment
.
Warning: All ancillary equipment to be
used with these ranges of hydraulic
manual pumps MUST be rated for use at the
same operating pressure as the pump model to
be used:-
Models AHP1120 up to and including AHP1142 –
Max working Pressure - 700bar (10,000psi)
Models HAP21011 up to and including
HAP21046 – Max working Pressure - 700bar
(10,000psi)
Sufficient time should be allocated to
planning your hydraulic system. Make
sure that all the components are fit for the
intended use.
Ensure there is sufficient oil capacity in the
pump reservoir to fully operate the system to be
used.
DO NOT exceed the rated pressure of the
pump or the rated capacity of the
system to be used. Under no circumstances
ever tamper with the internal safety relief valve
of the pump.
Keep hydraulic pumps away from flames
and direct heat.
Hydraulic pumps must only be serviced by a
qualified technician.
To protect your warranty, only use Hi-Force’s
hydraulic oil.
Immediately replace any worn or damaged
parts using genuine Hi-Force parts only.
The system operating pressure must not exceed
the pressure rating of the lowest component in
the system. Where possible, use a pressure
gauge to monitor the system.
Avoid damaging hydraulic hose. Always route
hoses to ensure that they are free from sharp
bends and kinks. Using a bent or kinked hose
will cause severe back-pressure and can also
lead to the failure of the hose.
Never lift or carry any hydraulic
components by the hose or hoses
connected to them.
Do not handle a pressurized hydraulic
hose. Oil escaping under pressure from a
ruptured hose can penetrate the skin and lead
to a serious medical emergency and in certain
cases death. Should this incident happen
medical attention must be sought immediately.
