ULTRAFLEX
3 INSTALLATION
3.1 Safety rules during installation
RESPECT STRICTLY the following safety rules:
ULTRAFLEX declines all responsibility in case the user does not follow these rules and it is not responsible for
negligence during the use of the system.
DANGER
-
DO NOT PUT HANDS BETWEEN THE MOVING PARTS.
-
Do not disable the safety devices.
Do not modify or add devices to the system, without ULTRAFLEX written authorisation or technical
-
intervention which will prove the modification.
-
Do not use the equipment for a purpose different from the one it has been designed for, which is
specified in the installation and maintenance manual.
-
Do not let non-specialized staff perform the installation.
-
Do not disassemble the hydraulic connections before bleeding the oil in the system completely.
The hoses can contain high pressure oil.
-
Do not disassemble the electrical connections before disconnecting the system from the mains.
-
For the connection to the cylinder, use ALWAYS SVS series hoses. If the system is used with
hoses, which are not supplied by ULTRAFLEX, verify that the system is dimensioned to bear
pressures up to 105 bar (1500 psi).
-
Do not disassemble or tamper with any assembled component.
-
Do not remove the electronic unit cover displaying the warning "Don't open", otherwise, warranty
will be void and the system explosion-proof safety will no longer be ensured.
-
NEVER use the Slave helm as single station since it is not equipped with proper safety systems.
WARNING
-
Do not put the feet on the cylinder.
-
Check the system after the installation and the purging, before operating the boat. Turn the
steering wheel until the cylinder/s reaches/reach the end of stroke.
Turn the steering wheel to the opposite direction. Repeat on each installed helm to verify the
correct installation and the system operation.
-
Use sealing fluids (such as Loctite) carefully. If they reach the hydraulic system, they can cause
damages and mechanical failure.
-
Do not use teflon tape or adhesive tape to seal the fittings, as this material might be sucked,
causing failures.
-
During the system installation, prevent foreign matters from entering the system.
Even a little object may cause lasting damage that are not detected immediately.
-
Avoid too narrow bend radius of hoses.
-
Avoid the hose contact with edges or sharp corners.
-
Avoid the hose contact with heat sources.
-
During installation, inspection or maintenance, IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to wear necklaces,
bracelets or clothes which could get caught in the moving parts.
