1 Basic operation and designated use of the machine
1.1 The machine has been built in accordance with state-of-the-art standards and the
recognized safety rules. Nevertheless, its use may constitute a risk to life and limb of the
user or of third parties, or cause damage to the machine and to other material property.
1.2 The machine must only be used in technically perfect condition in accordance with
its designated use and the instructions set out in the operation manual, and only by
safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of the risks involved in operating the
machine. Any functional disorders, especially those affecting the safety of the machine/
plant, should therefore be rectified immediately!
1.3 The machine is exclusively designed for the use described in the operating
manual. Using the machine for purposes other than those mentioned in the manual,
such as driving and controlling other pneumatic systems, is considered contrary to its
designated use. The manufacturer/supplier cannot be held liable for any damage
resulting from such use. The risk of such misuse lies entirely with the user.
Operating the machine within the limits of its designated use also involves observing
the instructions set out in the operating manual and complying with the inspection and
maintenance directives.
2 Organizational measures
2.1 The operating manual must always be at hand at the place of use of the machine!
2.2 In addition to the operating instructions, observe and instruct the user in all other
generally applicable legal and other mandatory regulations relevant to accident
prevention and environmental protection.
This also applies for wearing protective clothing, helmet with visor or goggles and
protective gloves.
2.3 In order to avoid innjuries, the machine must only be operated by a specially
trained operator who has undergone a safety training.
2.4 Observe all safety instructions and warnings attached to the machine. Make sure
that safety instructions and warnings attached to the machine are always complete and
perfectly legible.
2.5 Never make any modifications, additions or conversions which might affect safety
without the supplier's approval. This also applies to the installation and adjustment of
safety devices and valves.
2.6 Spare parts must comply with the technical requirements specified by the
manufacturer. Spare parts from original equipment manufacturers can be relied to do
so. It is only allowed to use original LUKAS spare parts of LUKAS system components.
2.8 Adhere to prescribed intervals or those specified in the operating manual for
routine checks and inspections.
2.9 Make sure to dispose properly of packing material and dismounted parts!
3 General safety instructions
3.1 In the event of malfunctions, stop the machine immediately and lock it. Have any
defects rectified immediately.

3.2 Before starting up or setting the machine in motion and during operation of the
machine make sure that nobody is at risk.
3.3 Before transporting the machine always check that the accessories have been
safely stowed away.
3.4 Make sure that there is enough lighting during work.
3.5 Avoid any operation that might be a risk to machine stability.
3.6 Check the machine at least after every operation for obvious damage and defects.
Report any changes (incl. changes in the machine’s working behaviour) to the competent
organization / person immediately. If necessary, stop the machine immediately and lock
it. All lines, hoses and screwed connections have to be checked for leaks and obvious
damage. Repair damage immediately. Splashed oil may cause injury and fire.
3.7 All safety equipment has to be checked for completeness and flawless condition:
- instruction markings and warning signs (safety instructions)
- check safety cover (e.g. motor-safety covers, heat protection etc.) if they are available
and if they are in good condition.
3.8 Do not stress hoses mechanically (pulling, buckling etc.).
3.9 When working in the vicinity of live components and cables, suitable precautions
must be taken to avoid current conductions or high-voltage flashovers.
3.10 During use of the tool, the creation of electrostatic charges which could result in
sparking must be prevented.
3.11 The tool should always be placed in such a way that its function and safety will
not be impaired by strong external temperature influences.
4 Instructions for maintenance and service
4.1 For the execution of maintenance and service work, tools and workshop equipment
adapted to the task on hand are absolutely indispensable.
Work on the hydraulic system must be carried out only by personnel having special
knowledge and experience with hydraulic equipment.
4.2 Before putting into operation clean the machine, especially connections and
threaded unions, of any traces of oil, fuel or preservatives before carrying out maintenance/
repair. Never use aggressive detergents. Use lint-free cleaning rags and pay attention
that the components are meticulously clean during reassembling after repair.
4.3 During dismantling of machines it is necessary to collect the outrunning hydraulic
liquids completely, so that they cannot reach the ground. They have to be disposed
properly according to the instructions.
4.4 Always tighten any screwed and thread connections that have been loosened
during maintenance and repair. Observe the stipulated torques.
4.5 Aggressive material (acid, lye, solvent, vapour) can damage the machine. It is
necessary to clean the whole machine if it must be exceptionally operated under such
conditions or gets into touch with these materials. Additionally, the machine must be
checked as described under 3.6.
