adequate lighting.
 Ensure the workpiece is correctly secured before operating the press.

 Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area.
 DO NOT operate the press if any parts are missing as this may cause failure and/or possible personal injury.
 DO NOT use to compress springs or any other item that could disengage and cause a potential hazard.
 DO NOT stand directly in front of the loaded press and never leave a loaded press unattended.

 When not in use, release pressure from the hydraulic unit and clean the press. Stand or store the press plates in a safe location.
 WARNING! Always position the press against a wall. If the press is situated in the open workshop, it is essential that a guard be
placed at the rear of the unit. This will prevent injury to bystanders in the event of the workpiece ejecting suddenly.

may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be applied by the operator.


lift direct with a forklift with the forks located under the top crossbeam. If a forklift is not available we suggest a minimum of two people are
required to lift and move the press.
