PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

BVA Hydraulics Double Acting Cylinder is designed for rated
capacity pushing, spreading and pressing jobs. Each cylinder is
equipped with a built-in safety relief valve in the return circuit to
prevent over-pressurizing. The valve is preset to 10,000 psi; it will
open as internal pressure exceeds the preset pressure. A wide
variety of applications exist for this category of product. Special
skill, knowledge and training may be required for a specific task and
the product may not be suitable for all the jobs described above.
Unsuitable applications would include applications that call for
a device to move, level or support persons, animals, hazardous
materials, mobile homes/dwellings in general, mirrors and/or plate
glass, and/or to connect/secure hatches, components, etc. between
bulkheads. The user ultimately must make the decision regarding
suitability of the product for any given task and therefore accept
responsibility for that decision. Immediately after lifting, loads must
be supported by appropriate mechanical means.
!
WARNING: NEVER use hydraulic cylinder as a support
device.
