UNDERSTAND THE SAFETY INSTRUCTION.
During maintenance:
•
Be sure that the trailer is standing on a flat surface.
•
Be sure that the trailer can’t move.

Do not tighten or repair leaking hydraulic couplings while the system is pressurized.

high-pressure oil jet can penetrate skin and cause serious burns and damages. High-
pressure oil is also highly flammable.

Avoid getting oil into eyes. Use safety goggles and gloves. If oil has got into eyes flush
them with cool water, after contact the doctor.
