DANGER (red) notices indicate an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided,
will result in
death
or serious injury
.
WARNING (orange) notices indicate a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided,
could result in
death
or serious injury.
CAUTION (yellow) notices indicate a potentially hazardous situation,
which, if not avoided,
may result in
minor
or moderate injury.
ATTENTION (blue) notices in NPK Instruction Manuals are an NPK
standard to alert the reader to situations which, if not avoided,
could
result in
equipment damage.
1. Operators and service personnel must read, understand and comply with the
NPK
INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
2. Keep personnel and bystanders clear of the SHEET PILE DRIVER while in
operation.
3. Do not operate the SHEET PILE DRIVER without an impact resistant shield
between the SHEET PILE DRIVER and the operator.
4. The SHEET PILE DRIVER must not be operated unless the operator is in full
control of the carrier. Operate the SHEET PILE DRIVER
from the operator’s seat
only.
5. Match the SHEET PILE DRIVER size to carrier according to NPK
recommendations. See the CARRIER MACHINE COMPATIBILITY section of this
manual.
6. Service personnel must be cautious handling pins and bushings when exchanging
the bucket for the SHEET PILE DRIVER. The carrier machine operator must move
the stick or boom only when directed by service personnel.
7. If it is necessary to hammer the boom pins in or out, beware of flying metal chips.
Eye protection be worn!
8. Do not operate the SHEET PILE DRIVER if the hydraulic oil temperature exceeds
180° F (
80° C
), or at higher than specified flow rates.
9. Be especially cautious around hydraulic lines. Hydraulic oil can be extremely
HOT!
Avoid skin contact with hydraulic oil! It can cause severe burns!
10. Protect hands and body from hydraulic fluids under pressure. Escaping high
pressure fluid can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by
relieving the pressure form the hydraulic system before disconnecting any lines.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard or other object.
If an accident occurs,
seek medical attention immediately! Hydraulic fluid injected into the skin
must be surgically removed immediately or gangrene may result!
