WARNING 

- Hydraulic fluid under pressure can be hazardous. 

 

Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving 

pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Keep hands and body away from pinholes and nozzles, which eject fluid 

under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard to search for leaks. If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately and 

inform them of the nature of the accident.
