JIMMY SERIES HYDRAULIC REBAR BENDERS — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

■ALWAYS test the ON/OFF switch on the hydraulic power unit before operating. The purpose of this switch is to shut down the rebar bender.

■NEVER use a extension cord that is frayed or damaged where the insulation has been cut.

■NEVER carry the hydraulic power unit by its power cord or disconnect it by yanking the cord from the power outlet.

■ALWAYS make certain that the proper extension cord has been selected for the job. See Table 5.

■NEVER allow power cord to lay in water.

■NEVER stand in water while operating the rebar bender.

■When connecting the hydraulic power unit to a power receptacle, make sure the receptacle circuit is connected to either a GFCI receptacle or a receptacle protected by a 20 amp circuit breaker.

■When plugging the hydraulic power unit into a power receptacle, check the nameplate for the correct operating voltage. Operating the rebar bender at the wrong voltage will damage the electrical components. ALWAYS read the nameplate before applying power.

■This hydraulic power unit is equipped with a 3-prong male power plug.DO NOT use a 2-prong adapter when plugging into a wall outlet.This will defeat the purpose of the ground circuit. If the plug does not fit into the receptacle, contact a qualified electrician to install a 3-conductor wall receptacle (outlet).

■Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.

■DO NOT expose the hydraulic power unit to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the power unit will increase the risk of electrical shock.

■When operating the hydraulic power unit outside, be sure to use the appropriate outdoor extension cord.This type of extension cord reduces the risk of electrical shock.

■ALWAYS remove the AC power cord from the power source before performing any service or maintenance on the rebar bender. This preventative safety measure reduces the possibility of accidental starting.

POWER UNITTRANSPORTING (Electric-Hydraulic Pump)

■When transporting of the power unit (pump) is required, ALWAYS carry unit by its handle.

■ALWAYS wrap power and remote cable cords neatly to avoid tripping and damage when transporting.

MAINTENANCE

■NEVER lubricate components or attempt service on a operational rebar bender.

■ALWAYS maintain rebar bender in correct operating condition.

■ALWAYS fix damage to the rebar bender immediately and always replace broken parts. Replace with only MQ recommended parts.

EMERGENCIES

■ALWAYS know the location of the nearest fire extinguisher and first aid kit.

■In emergencies always know the location of the nearest phone or keep a phone on the job site. Also know the phone numbers of the nearest ambulance, doctor and fire department. This information will be invaluable in the case of an emergency.
