  • Page 8: Proper Use

    Proper use includes observance of the operating instructions and compliance with the inspection and maintenance conditions. Never work in a fatigued or intoxicated state! 3. Proper use LUKAS eDRAULIC devices have been specially designed to rescue or retrieve the bodies of victims of road, rail or aircraft accidents or to be used during rescue operations from buildings. LUKAS eDRAULIC cutting devices are used to free injured persons at accident scenes by cutting through doors, roof beams and hinges.
  • Page 9 - prestressed and hardened parts such as springs, spring steels, steering columns and rollers - pipes under gas or liquid pressure, - compound materials (steel/concrete) - explosive bodies such as airbag cartridges The operating pressure placed on the rescue device may only be directly changed after consultation with LUKAS. A change in settings may result in damage to property and/or injuries. LUKAS eDRAULIC devices are not explosion-protected! When using the devices in potentially explosive environment, the following must be excluded: - that the device could trigger an explosion.
  • Page 10: Functional Description

    4. Functional description 4.1 Description The cutting devices have been designed in such a way that a hydraulically operated piston activates mechanical joints symmetrically to open or close a set of two opposite blade arms, thus enabling objects to be cut. For all devices, the movement is activated by means of a valve in the form of a star grip. All devices guarantee the dead man's switch and the full load-supporting function when the star grip is released. LUKAS eDRAULIC devices do not need to be connected to an external hydraulic source (e.g. a motor pump). Generation of the required hydraulic pressure takes place within the body of the device. Either a battery or an external power supply must be connected as an energy source. You can choose which energy source you wish to use. Both the accumulator battery and the mains power unit can be inserted into the opening provided in the body of the tool. They are then automatically locked into position. You can extend the operating time of your eDRAULIC device by using several batteries. The batteries can be recharged after use, using a suitable external charger. If you are making use of an external power supply, the device can be used for an almost unlimited time. This time is only limited by the external energy source and the overheating switch of the power supply. To allow you to select the best possible energy supply for your eDRAULIC device, neither the battery nor the power supply form part of the delivery scope. You will find suitable bat- teries and power supplies in the LUKAS accessories list. eDRAULIC devices come with standard light fittings to facilitate work under poor light conditions. The light-emitting diodes attached on the operating side light up the work area. The main switch has also been equipped with a ring light, so that you can immediately detect whether the device is switched on or not. When exchanging the battery or power supply, the connection slot will light up for approximately 30 seconds.

    Before rescue work can commence, the object must be stabilized in its current position. Ensure that the objects to be worked on are adequately underpinned and/or supported to ensure that there is no risk of sliding or shifting. Worldwide safety guidelines pertaining to the specific country must be observed and complied with. WARNING / CAUTION / PLEASE NOTE! LUKAS eDRAULIC devices are not explosion-protected! When using the devices in potentially explosive environments, the following must be excluded: - that the device could trigger an explosion. - that working with the device could trigger an explosion; e.g. sparks may result from cutting an object.
