SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

Do not overload cylinder. Do not exceed clamping forces. Overloading causes
equipment failure and possible personal injury. Use hydraulic gauges to ensure proper
operating pressure in each hydraulic system. Do NOT exceed maximum pressure
limits of lowest rated component in your system. Always use high pressure hoses and
fittings.

WARNING

Do not over-extend the cylinder. Do not operate beyond limits of its rated stroke. It
will cause unnecessary strain to the cylinder.

WARNING

AVOID SHARP BENDS AND KINKS IN HOSES. The oil flow will be restricted
causing severe back-pressure. Sharp bends and kinks will internally damage
hoses leading to premature failure.

WARNING

WEAR SAFETY GLASSES to protect your eyes against injury.

WARNING

KEEP FINGERS AWAY. During operation, keep hands and fingers away from the
operation area to avoid personal injury.

The mechanical puller’s center bolt diameter must be at least one half
