OPERATION

HV18 User Manual ◄ 11
In addition to the safety precautions found in
this manual, observe the following for equipment
protection and care.
• Make sure all couplers are wiped clean before
connection.
• Always store the tool in a clean, dry space, safe
from damage or pilferage.
• Make sure the circuit PRESSURE hose (with male
quick disconnect) is connected to the “IN” port. The
circuit RETURN hose (with female quick disconnect)
is connected to the opposite port. Do not reverse
circuit ow. This can cause damage to internal seals.
• Always replace hoses, couplings and other parts
with replacement parts recommended by STANLEY.
Supply hoses must have a minimum working
pressure rating of 2500 psi/172 bar.
• Do not exceed the rated ow (see Specications) in
this manual for correct ow rate and model number.
Rapid failure of the internal seals may result.
• Always keep critical tool markings, such as warning
stickers and tags, legible.
• Tool repair should be performed by experienced
personnel only.
• Make certain that the recommended relief valves
are installed in the pressure side of the system.
• Do not use the tool for applications for which it was
not intended.
