IP16 User Manual ◄ 11
• Make sure all couplers are wiped clean before con-
nection.
• The hydraulic circuit control valve must be in the
OFF position when coupling or uncoupling hydrau-
lic tools. Failure to do so may result in damage to
the quick couplers and cause overheating of the hy-
draulic system.
• Always store the tool in a clean dry space, safe from
damage or pilferage.
• Always replace hoses, couplings and other parts
with replacement parts recommended by Stanley
Hydraulic Tools. Supply hoses to the intensier must
have a minimum working pressure rating of 2500
psi/172 bar. Supply hoses from the intensier to the
tool couplings and other high-pressure parts, must
have a minimum working pressure rating of 10,000
psi/700 bar.
• All hoses must have an oil resistant inner surface
and an abrasion resistant outer surface. Whenever
near electrical conductors, use clean hoses labeled
and certied non-conductive.
• Never allow the working pressure of the intensier
or tool to exceed 10,000 psi/690 bar.
• Always keep critical tool markings, such as warning
stickers and tags legible.
NOTICE
In addition to the Safety Precautions found in
this manual, observe the following for equipment
protection and care.
• Make sure that the compression tool, cutter, etc. to
be operated is rated at 10,000 psi/690 bar. If other
than 10,000 psi/700 bar, the intensier relief valve
must be adjusted to the pressure for the tool being
operated.
• Operate the intensier within its rated capacity.
• Do not use the intensier for applications for which it
was not designed.
• Tool repair should be performed by experienced
personnel only.
• Never connect or disconnect couplers or port con-
nections with hydraulic pressure in the hose.
• Always check high-pressure couplers for leaks and
damage before operating the system at maximum
rated pressure.
• When the intensier is not in use, attach thread pro-
tectors and install valve caps.
