the equipment. If these basic rules are not
followed injury to the user, the hydraulic
equipment or the load to be lifted may
result.
Position the cylinder on a solid, even
and horizontal surface.
Never use the cylinder on a slope.

during operation.
Never position any part of your body under
the load.
Always secure the load with mechanical
stands.
Clean couplers before connecting and make
sure the connections are securely tightened.
Never exceed the rated capacity of the
cylinder.
It is strongly recommended the use of a
gauge to check the pressure.
Prevent hoses from sharp bending and do
not drop objects on them.
Never disconnect couplers unless the piston
is fully retracted.

Always use a cylinder of a capacity and hydraulic stroke 25% higher than
the weight of the load to be lifted.
