7. Operation

  7.1 Installation

The following must generally be observed when installing the cylinders:

-  Non-slip and even ground, so that the entire base area of the cylinder is lying on the 

ground. If there is any doubt as to the load-bearing capacity of the ground, suitable 

wooden or metal underplates must be used to increase the contact area.

CAUTION / ATTENTION!

Prior to installing the cylinders, the load to be lifted must be secured against 

slipping as prescribed in the respective applicable guidelines and regulations.

ATTENTION!

Hydraulic fluids may produce a lubricating film on the ground!

CAUTION / ATTENTION!

When using wooden underplates, care must be taken that particularly hard 

wood without damage is used, so that the underplate cannot crack. Additional 

clamping together of other woods with metal straps is 

not

 sufficient!

A

TTENTION!

Use an additional non-slip underplate between the piston guard plate and the 

load to be lifted, as a lubricant film may be present at the contact point of the 

load!

-  The ground must be a continuous surface (no gratings, gravel etc.)

-  Never place cylinders on a yielding underplate

Never use 

cylinders 

without a piston guard plate,

 in order to avoid damage to the 

piston and achieve safe power introduction
