General maintenance safety
Keep the area used for servicing the machine clean and dry. Clean up spilled fluids.
Service the machine on a firm, level surface.
Install guards and shields after you service the machine.
Close all access doors and install all panels after servicing the machine.
Do not attempt to clean, lubricate, clear obstructions, or make adjustments to the machine while it is in motion or while
the engine is running.
Always make sure that working area is clear of tools, parts, other persons and pets before you start operating the
machine.
Unsupported hydraulic cylinders can lose pressure and drop the equipment, causing a crushing hazard. Do not leave
equipment in a raised position while parked or during service, unless the equipment is securely supported.
Jack or lift the machine only at jack or lift points indicated in this manual.
Incorrect towing procedures can cause accidents. When you tow a disabled machine follow the procedure in this
manual. Use only rigid tow bars.
Stop the engine, remove the key, and relieve pressure before you connect or disconnect fluid lines.
Stop the engine and remove the key before you connect or disconnect electrical connections.
Scalding can result from incorrect removal of coolant caps. Cooling systems operate under pressure. Hot coolant can
spray out if you remove a cap while the system is hot. Allow the system to cool before you remove the cap. When
you remove the cap, turn it slowly to allow pressure to escape before you completely remove the cap.
Replace damaged or worn tubes, hoses, electrical wiring, etc.
The engine, transmission, exhaust components, and hydraulic lines may become hot during operation. Take care
when you service such components. Allow surfaces to cool before you handle or disconnect hot components. Wear
protective equipment when appropriate.
When welding, follow the instructions in the manual. Always disconnect the battery before you weld on the machine.
Always wash your hands after you handle battery components.
General battery safety
Always wear eye protection when you work with batteries.
Do not create sparks or have open flame near a battery.
Ventilate the area when you charge a battery or use a battery in an enclosed area.
Disconnect the negative (-) terminal first and reconnect the negative (-) terminal last.
When you weld on the machine, disconnect both terminals of the battery.
Do not weld, grind, or smoke near a battery.
When you use auxiliary batteries or connect jumper cables to start the engine, use the procedure shown in the oper-
ator’s manual. Do not short across terminals.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when you store and handle batteries.
Battery post, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling. This
is a California Proposition 65 warning.
