A cpy f this dcument must be given t the staff respnsible fr the selectin and/r use f prduct. WARNINGS Read the fllwing instructins and the general instructins at carefully befre installing and using the prduct. isuse f ur prduct may cause malfunctins and risks related t safety. Use exclusively the type f fluid indicated n the technical data sheet. In case f using different fluids, first cntact Stucchi Technical Supprt. The prduct is required fr using pressure il, fr pressures indicated in the technical data sheet: in case f malfunctins, leakage r imprper use, there can be risks related t high pressure il leaks and/r ejectin f cmpnent parts. Befre installing be sure the prduct cde is crrect. Befre cntinuing with the installatin, verify that all structures n which prducts will be installed and that the surrunding areas are cleaned. The prduct must be installed, perated and serviced exclusively by qualified persnnel. Unqualified persnnel must be kept safe distance frm the abve peratins. It is recmmended t use the prduct n systems with a degree f cntrlled cntaminatin (19/17/14 accrding t ISO/DIS 4406 and 8 in accrdance with NAS 1638 r higher grade): dirt can wear/damage prduct cmpnents causing malfunctin and/r decrease in perfrmance. During installatin, adequately prtect prducts frm ptential cntaminants, such as metal debris, dirt, dust r paint residues. Remve the prtective caps n the quick cuplings nly befre installing the pipes. D nt use imprper tls, during installatin r maintenance, which may cause damages and/r malfunctins. Apprpriate security measures t prevent damage t persns r prperty as a result f any pressure drp in the circuit caused by the cupling must be prvided by the user. In case f damage t the seals r ther parts f the cupling, there is a risk f serius injuries by hydraulic il injectin and/r burns, as a result f il leakage under pressure and/r high temperature. In case f suspected il leakage, d nt perfrm inspectins with bare hands: always use a sheet f paper, able t highlight the leakage, withut risk fr the peratr s safety, and t adequately absrb any il jet (liquid r spray). In case f il leakage, d nt perate the system. Stp the system, releasing pressure and bringing it t rm temperature. D nt manually perate the valves f the quick cuplings t release the pressure inside the circuit, when discnnected. D nt perate the system when damage is visible n quick cuplings cmpnents. D nt disassemble, mdify r tamper with the cuplings. D nt insert freign bjects between the cuplings during the cnnectin, discnnectin r use in general. D nt use differently as shwn in this dcument. D nt use utside the perating parameters indicated in the prduct technical data sheet. D nt cnnect with the dynamic pressure in the circuit. Befre perfrming maintenance r cleaning the prduct, release the residual pressure in the circuit and bring the system t rm temperature. D nt direct high pressure jets n the cupling valves r n the seals (fr example during cleaning with a pressure washer). Fr cleaning the cuplings, d nt use aggressive r incmpatible fluids fr seals. Use nly riginal spare seals. In the event f malfunctins and sliding issues f the cupling parts, replace it. In case f replacement f ne f the tw parts damaged ( r F) which cnstitute the quick cupling, als replace the ther half crrespnding cupling.
