Timco · Wedge splitter machine
The joints for the hydraulic hoses and hose suspensions are prone to leaks. Such leakages can cause high pressure toxic hydraulic fluid to penetrate through skin and cause local or wider damage to muscles and organs. Moreover, a loosening hydraulic hose may cause a whiplash effect and hit the user. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive nor with the European standards EN 609-1 and EN 4413.
