As high pressures constitute a potential safety risk, the following instructions
must be considered:
• The equipment should only be operated by trained personnel.
• Always follow the operating instructions.
• Check the air-driven oil pump and all accessories carefully before use. Never
use even slightly damaged components.
• The air-driven oil pumps should only be connected to a clean and dry air
supply.
• Make sure all air has been removed from the hydraulic system, before
pressurising the air-driven oil pump.
• Always use a pressure gauge.
• Always prevent the workpiece/tool from being projected upon sudden release
of pressure (e.g. by use of retaining nut).
• Never use the equipment above the stated maximum hydraulic pressure.
• Never exceed the stated maximum air pressure.
• Never use the air-driven oil pumps together with accessories, which are rated
below the maximum pressure of the air-driven oil pump.
• Use protective goggles.
• Never modify the unit.
• Use original parts only.
• Only use clean, recommended hydraulic oils
(e.g. SKF LHMF 300, LHDF 900 or similar).
• In case of any uncertainties as regards the use of the air-driven oil pump,
contact SKF.
