High Pressure Water System Safety
Never work on any high-pressure component or loosen any high pressure fittings without first bleeding
the system to ensure that there is no high pressure water present. Follow all instructions and safety
recommendations in this manual.
Always avoid contact with the stream of water. Seek immediate surgical
attention if you come in contact with any high pressure stream of fluid.
WARNING
•
Do not come in contact with the high pressure water. HP water can penetrate any part of the
human body and cause severe infection or death if not treated properly. Seek immediate surgical
attention if you come in contact with any high pressure stream of fluid.
•
Do not try to repair a leak in an HP water fitting when the system is pressurized. A leak at a
sealing surface can cause a hazardous spray of water. Shut off the motor and double check the
HP water pressure is relieved down the drain before servicing any high-pressure plumbing.
•
Plumbing supports and guides must be used for all HP tubing exiting the pump. Failure to do so
can introduce excessive bending stress and fatigue through vibration causing a premature failure
of the plumbing, and heighten the risk of personal injury due to an unexpected rupture.
•
Always use two wrenches when tightening or loosening HP connections: one for the gland nut
and one for the fitting. Using one wrench only will introduce excessive bending stress to the
plumbing causing premature failure.
•
Always use high-pressure piping that is rated for the pressures you will be operating with. This
pump is capable of outputting 60,000 psi of water.
•
Make sure all connections are properly tightened after performing service or maintenance.
•
Keep hands and body away from pinholes and nozzles, which eject fluids under high pressure.
•
Never check for hydraulic leaks with your hand: use a piece of cardboard or other material.
•
Do not expose skin to a pressurized leak.
•
Wear appropriate protective equipment including heavy gloves and safety glasses.
•
Do not attempt to tighten or loosen any mechanical connection unless the machine is powered
OFF and all system pressure has been relieved.
