Keep hands and body away from pin- holes and
nozzles which eject fluids under high pressure.
• If ANY fluid is injected into the skin, it must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor
who is familiar with this type of injury or gangrene
may result.

clean. Dust, dirt, water and foreign material are
the major causes of hydraulic system damage.
