A hydraulic press or any other machine that uses a hydraulic pump to run can be a safety threat, and your company or factory may have certain safety protocols in place, but this is where you always need to be careful. This articleZhongyou Heavy IndustryBring the operation of hydraulic press and hydraulic pump should pay attention to what safety matters.

 

A serious mistake that occurs when working in an area with a hydraulic pump can seriously damage your bottom line or an employee. If you want to maintain a safe working environment, make sure your employees are familiar with these hydraulic pump safety tips.
 

 

1. always use the correct equipment:

 

One thing any hydraulic operator should do when they come to work is make sure they are ready for the job. Whether you operate a hydraulic press or other machine, each employee should have a specific list of safety gear.

 

At a minimum, each employee should wear goggles, gloves and sturdy, non-slip work boots. If air pollution is common in the work area, you may also need full face mask or mouth and nose protection.

 

Create a culture where every employee is responsible for each other to wear the right safety gear. If anyone finds that someone is operating a machine without the correct equipment, they should be summoned immediately.

 

Check the pump or press 2. using the checklist:

 

Before any hydraulic machine starts to operate, the operator should check to ensure a safe working environment. To ensure that everything does not go unnoticed, create a checklist that every employee must use.

 

Start the list by including the dressing of the safety gear we just talked about. But then the actual machine and the surrounding area need to be carefully examined. Make sure that the work area is free of debris and that there is no slippery material on the floor.

 

The hydraulic machine or the machine itself should be carefully inspected to ensure that all guards are in place and working properly. If your machine has been shut down safely, you should try to trigger it intentionally at least once a week to ensure that the machine is still working.

 

Be careful when moving dangerous goods 3:

 

If your employees bring sharp or dangerous materials into the press or machinery, make sure they follow the correct procedures. The aforementioned work gloves should protect their hands, but you also need to make sure that the area is free from the danger of interference and tripping. Other employees should be careful not to approach the hydraulic operator while working.

 

It is 4. to use common sense when the press or pump is in motion:

 

Be wits when you need to actually put the material into a press or pump machine. Keep your body and limbs as far away from the area as possible. If you accidentally drop an item near a moving press, turn it off before turning off the machine to put it back in place.

 

5. employ experienced professionals for equipment maintenance:

 

The best way to ensure the normal and safe operation of your hydraulic press or other machinery is to hire experienced professionals to conduct regular inspections. A hydraulic specialist may find a malfunction of a hydraulic pump that you did not notice yourself.

 

If you are not sure how often you should check the pump or machine, a hydraulics expert may also provide some advice on this. Following a regular maintenance plan, you will be able to deal with potential problems before they become safety hazards.
