Visually inspect all components for shipping damage. Shipping
damage is not covered by warranty. If shipping damage is found,
notify carrier at once. The carrier is responsible for all repair
and replacement costs resulting from damage in shipment.
Warranty of this unit will be void on any part if the unit subjected
to misuse due to overloading, abuse, lack of maintenance and
unauthorized modifications. No warranty – verbal, written or
implied – other than the official, published AME new machinery
and equipment warranty will be valid with this unit. In addition, it
is your responsibility to be aware of existing Federal, State and
Local codes and regulations governing the safe use and
maintenance of this unit.
SAFETY FIRST
2.0 SAFETY ISSUES
Read all instructions, warnings and cautions
carefully. Follow all safety precautions to avoid
personal injury or property damage during
system operation. AME cannot be responsible for damage or
injury resulting from unsafe product use, lack of maintenance or
incorrect product and/or system operation. Contact AME when
in doubt as to the safety precautions and operations. If you have
never been trained on high-pressure hydraulic safety, consult
your distribution or service center for a free AME Hydraulic safety
course.
Failure to comply with the following cautions and warnings could
cause equipment damage and personal injury.
A CAUTION is used to indicate correct operating or maintenance
procedures and practices to prevent damage to, or destruction
of equipment or other property.
A WARNING indicates a potential danger that requires correct
procedures or practices to avoid personal injury.
A DANGER is only used when your action or lack of action may
cause serious injury or even death.
WARNING: Wear proper personal protective gear when
operating hydraulic equipment.
WARNING: Stay clear of loads supported by hydraulics.
A cylinder, when used as a load lifting device, should
never be used as a load holding device. After the load has
been raised or lowered, it must always be blocked mechanically.
WARNING: USE ONLY RIGID PIECES TO HOLD
LOADS. Carefully select steel or wood blocks that are
capable of supporting the load. Never use a hydraulic
cylinder as a shim or spacer in any lifting or pressing application.

AIR HYDRAULIC PUMP
15000
DANGER: To avoid personal injury keep hands
and feet away from cylinder and workpiece
during operation.
WARNING: Do not exceed equipment ratings. Never
attempt to lift a load weighing more than the capacity of
the cylinder. Overloading causes equipment failure and
possible personal injury. The cylinders are designed for a max.
pressure of 700 bar [10,000 psi]. Do not connect a jack or cylinder
to a pump with a higher pressure rating.
Never set the relief valve to a higher pressure than the
maximum rated pressure of the pump. Higher settings
may result in equipment damage and/or personal injury.
CAUTION:
Air Hydraulic Pumps and all tire tools
should be used only by persons properly trained
according to OSHA regulation No. 29CFR1910.177,
"Servicing Single-piece and Multi-piece Wheels."
WARNING: The system operating pressure must not
exceed the pressure rating of the lowest rated component
in the system. Install pressure gauges in the system to
monitor operating pressure. It is your window to what is happening
in the system.
CAUTION: Avoid damaging hydraulic hose. Avoid
sharp bends and kinks when routing hydraulic hoses.
Using a bent or kinked hose will cause severe back-pressure.
Sharp bends and kinks will internally damage the hose leading to
premature hose failure.
Do not drop heavy objects on hose. A sharp impact may
cause internal damage to hose wire strands. Applying
pressure to a damaged hose may cause it to rupture.
IMPORTANT: Do not lift hydraulic equipment by the
hoses or swivel couplers. Use the carrying handle or
other means of safe transport.
