also necessary to maintain safe operation. Clean as necessary. (fig. 7.19-1)
To clean the chassis/engine:
1.
Shut the machine down as described in section 5.12, allow the machine to
cool thoroughly, then lower the access panels on the underside of the
machine.
2. Open the hood open at the rear of the machine.
3. Pressure wash any debris from the engine compartment out through the
lower openings.
4. Pressure wash any debris from the chassis area out through the lower
openings.
5. Re-secure the acess panels, then close and secure the hood to complete
the cleaning procedure.
Coolant and machine components can be HOT! Allow the machine to
cool thoroughly prior to performing maintenance or service to avoid the
possibility of burns.
If any safety signs are found to be damaged or missing after cleaning,
contact your dealer for a replacement immediately. They can be reap-
plied according to the location illustration in section 2.3 of this manual.
