Protective Equipment
Always wear appropriate protective equipment for
working conditions when working on or around a
Rubber Track Utility Vehicle. Wear hard hats, protec-
tive glasses, safety shoes and any other equipment
necessary to ensure your safety and the safety of oth-
ers as you work. In particular, wear protective glasses
when pounding on any part of the machine or its work
tool with a hammer or sledge. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewelry that can catch on components and
cause injury. If welding is required, use welding gloves,
helmet (proper UV eye protection), apron, boots and
any other protective clothing necessary to ensure your
safety and the safety of others while welding. Avoid
wearing flammable or heat sensitive clothing while per-
forming tasks that involve welding.
Entering and Exiting
Always use caution when entering or exiting a Rubber
Track Utility Vehicle. When entering or exiting, always
use the handholds located on the ROPS assembly.
Never enter or exit the machine while it is in motion.
Do not use the track as a step to enter or exit the
machine or to gain access to the cargo bed.
Lifting
Use a hoist when lifting components that weigh 23 kg
(50 Ib) or more, to avoid back injury. Make sure all
chains, hooks, slings, etc., are in good condition and
are of the correct capacity. Be sure hooks are posi-
tioned correctly and equipped with a spring latch.
Lifting eyes are not to be side loaded during a lifting
operation.
Hot Fluids and Components
Stay clear of hot components and system fluids of the
engine, exhaust, radiator/oil cooler and hydraulic
lines/tubes. Also, use caution when removing fill caps,
breathers and plugs on the machine. Hold a rag over
the cap or plug to prevent being sprayed or splashed
by liquids under pressure. Be especially careful if the
machine has been operated recently, fluids may still be
hot. To ensure your safety, allow the machine to cool
before attempting any service procedure that involves
hot fluids or components.
Corrosion Inhibitor
Corrosion inhibitor contains alkali. Avoid contact with
eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
Do not take internally. In case of contact, wash skin
immediately with soap and water. For eyes, flush with
large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Call
Physician. Keep out of reach of children.
Batteries
Do not smoke when inspecting the battery electrolyte
level. Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or bat-
tery circuit cable from the battery when the charging
unit is operating. A spark can cause an explosion from
the flammable vapor mixture of hydrogen and oxygen
that is released from the electrolyte through the battery
outlets. Do not let electrolyte solution make contact
with skin or eyes. Electrolyte solution is an acid. In
case of contact, immediately wash skin with soap and
water. For eyes, flush with large amounts of water for
at least 15 minutes. Call Physician. Keep out of reach
of children.
Pressurized Items
1.
Do not use hands or any other body part to check
for fluid leaks in the hydraulic system. Always use
a solid material like wood or metal to check for this
type of leak. Leaking fluid under pressure can pen-
etrate body tissue. Fluid penetration can cause
serious injury and even death. If fluid is injected
into your skin, get treatment immediately. Seek
treatment from a doctor that is familiar with this
type of injury.
2.
Relieve pressure from the hydraulic system before
disconnecting or removing any lines, fittings or
related items. Do this by relaxing all hydraulic
actuators. Be alert for possible pressure release
when disconnecting any device from a pressurized
system.
3.
Lower the dump box (if equipped) before perform-
ing any work on the machine. If this cannot be
done, make sure it is securely braced to prevent it
from dropping unexpectedly during service.
4.
Loose or damaged fuel, oil, hydraulic, lines, tubes
and hoses can cause fires. Do not bend or strike
high pressure lines or install ones that have been
bent or damaged. Check lines, tubes and hoses
carefully. See item 1 for precautions on checking
for fluid leaks.
5.
Pressurized air or water can also cause injury.
When pressurized air or water is used for clean-
ing, wear a protective face shield, protective cloth-
ing, and protective shoes. The recommended max-
imum air pressure for cleaning purposes is 205
kPa (30 psi). When using a pressure washer, keep
in mind that nozzle pressures are typically very
high. Generally, pressures are well above 13790
kPa (2000 psi). Follow all recommended practices
provided by the pressure washer manufacturer.
