Failure to comply with the following warnings
may result in personal injury as well as
property damage.
• Study, understand, and follow all instructions
provided with and on this device before use.
• The user must be a qualified operator familiar with
the correct operation, maintenance, and use of
cylinders.
This device is NOT suitable for use as
support device! As the load is lifted, use
blocking and cribbing to guard against a
falling load. Stay clear of a lifted load before it
is properly supported. Never rely on hydraulic pressure
to support a load.
Crush Hazard. Keep hands and feet
away from cylinder and workpiece
during operation.
• Do not exceed rated capacity of the cylinder
or any equipment in the system. The cylinder
is designed for a max. pressure of 10,000 psi.
• Do not connect a cylinder to a pump with higher
pressure rating.
• Do not subject cylinder to a shock loads, a load
dropped suddenly, causing the system pressure to
exceed rated pressure.
The system operating pressure must
not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest
rated component in the system. Install a
pressure gauge or other load measuring instrument to
monitor the operating pressure. Burst hazard exists if
hose, connection or any other component in the system
exceed its rated pressure.
Avoid damaging hydraulic hose. Do not allow
hose to kink, twist, curl, crush, cut or bend so
tightly that fluid flow within the hose is blocked
or reduced. Periodically inspect the hose for
wear.
Do not pull, position or move cylinder setup by
the hose. Use carrying handle or other means
of safe transport.

Wear protective gear when
operating hydraulic equipment.

Cylinder must be on a stable base which is
able to support the load while pushing or lifting.

Center load on cylinder. Distribute load evenly
across the entire saddle surface. Do not
off-center loads on a cylinder. The load can tip
or the cylinder can "kick out".
Never try to disassemble a hydraulic cylinder,
