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 rectifi ed 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 modifi cations, 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 specifi ed 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.
2.7 Replace hydraulic hoses at the specifi ed or adequate intervals, even if no defects are
detected which might affect safety. This must be done after 10 years, at the latest!
2.8 Adhere to prescribed intervals or those specifi ed in the operating manual for routine
checks and inspections.

3 General safety instructions
3.1 In the event of malfunctions, stop the machine immediately and lock it. Have any
defects rectifi ed 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 It is strictly forbidden to get a part of the body between the blades of the device!
There is the danger of cutting!
3.4 Consider that no hair and protective clothing parts come into the proximity of the
mobile parts, it could be drawn in!
3.5 Grab the equipment only at the intended grasps, in order to avoid squeezings
3.6 Do not store the equipment in the proximity of heat sources! The equipment is
thermally well conductive and the consequence could be that the User can get light
burns!
3.7 Consider the maximally permissible pressure. This is noted directly on a label on
the equipment.
3.8 Before transporting the machine always check that the accessories have been
safely stowed away.
3.9 Make sure that there is enough lighting during work.
3.10 Avoid any operation that might be a risk to the user and/or the machine stability.
3.11 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 fi re.
3.12 All safety equipment has to be checked for completeness and fl awless condi-
tion:
- 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.
3.13 Do not stress hoses mechanically (pulling, buckling etc.).
3.14 Touch the cut off parts only with protective gloves, because the cut edges are very
sharp.
3.15 The cutting tool may not be served in drunk, druggy or similar conditions. Otherwise
there is the danger that situations are misjudged.
3.16 Parts under mechanical stess may only be cutted, when you have secured them

4 Instructions for maintenance and service
4.1 For the execution of maintenance and service work, tools and workshop equip-
ment 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 accord-ing 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 Work on the electrical system or equipment may only be carried out by a skilled
electrician himself or by specially instructed personnel under the control and supervision of such electri- cian and in accordance with the applicable electrical engineering
rules.
4.6 The electrical equipment of machines is to be inspected and checked at regular
intervals. Defects such as loose connections or scorched cables must be rectifi ed immediately.
4.7 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 3.11.
5 Safety Instructions for Hydraulic Hoses
- By no means the hose must be exposed to brake fl uid as this fl uid will destroy
outer layer of hose
- do not expose the hose to any of the following aggressive fl uids:
• acid, lye or solvent
• alcohol and fuel
• battery and automatic transmission fl uid
• phosphate ester

5.1 Handling of hoses
- never exceed the permissible working pressure as stated on hose and/or literature
- avoid any tension (see fi gure 1) and do not hang any load onto the hose
- never exceed the minimum bend radius as resulting kink will cause failure of hose
(see fi gure 2)
- do not allow hose to contact sharp edges or rough objects (see fi gure 3)
- avoid any twisting of hose (see fi gure 4)
- do not run over hose with any vehicle or equipment ! Hoses which are put on the
surface of sidewalk or street have to be suitably protected (see fi gure 5)
- do not allow hose to contact areas of high temperature such as muffl ers, exhaust
manifold, heaters or burners. Protect the hose as shown in fi gure 6 or install it in
suffi cient distance from the source of heat.
- never interline hose with that of a different manufacturer.
5.2 Protection of the working area in case of breakdown of hoses
Hoses have to be installed or protected in such a way that dangers are prevented, if
possible, in case of breakdown of the hoses.
Danger can be caused by:
- Uncontrolled hose movement after a hose rupture caused e.g. by external infl uence.
- Emerging of the pressure medium under pressure.
- Infl ammation of pressure medium near igniting sources.
