Do not operate the machine with the drive shaft
shields open or removed. Entanglement in rotating
drive shafts can cause serious injury or death. Stay
clear of rotating components.
Make sure rotating guards turn freely.

1.1.15 Modifications
Welding or altering chassis in any way such as adding implement towing hitches can cause damage or
failure of components. Modifications not approved by AGCO void machine or system warranty.
1.1.16 High pressure leaks
Fluid leaking from the hydraulic system or the fuel
injection system under high pressure can be very
hard to see. The fluid can go into the skin causing
serious injury.
Fluid injected into the skin must be surgically
removed within a few hours. If not removed
immediately, serious infection or reaction can
develop. Go immediately to a doctor who knows
about this type of injury.
Fig. 27
Use a piece of cardboard or wood to search for
possible leaks. Do not use your bare hand. Wear
leather gloves for hand protection and safety
goggles for eye protection.
Relieve all pressure before loosening any hydraulic
lines. Relieve the pressure by lowering raised
equipment, shutting off accumulator valve, if
equipped, and shutting off the engine. Tighten all
connections securely before applying pressure.
