CAUTION: Sawyer Manufacturing Company offers a precise weld qualification test for guided bend operations. The buildup of high pressure inside the hydraulic guided bend machine can cause injury to personnel and damage to equipment. To avoid a rapid discharge, ensure that all pressure hoses are connected and secure. When the hydraulic pressure does not increase enough to bend the sample, check the hydraulic fluid levels and add hydraulic fluid as necessary. Please refer to ENERPAC manual for maintenance of ENERPAC pump.
