Personal injury or death can result from escaping fluid under pressure.Escaping fluid under pressure, even a very small pin-hole size leak, can penetrate body tissue, causing serious injury, and possible death.Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak.Do not check for pin hole leaks in pump or motor hoses during a steer stall condition. If fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated by a doctor familiar with this type of injury immediately.
