1.1.21 Burn prevention
Do not touch any part of an operating engine.
Other components such as the transmission, the
axles and the oil reservoir can also be hot. Let the
engine cool before performing any maintenance on
the engine. Release all pressure in air, oil,
lubrication, fuel and cooling systems before
disconnecting any line fittings or related items.

1.1.22 Coolant
When the engine is at operating temperature, the
engine coolant is hot. The coolant is also under
pressure. The radiator and all the lines to the
heater or engine contain hot coolant.
Any contact with hot coolant or with the steam
can cause severe burns. Allow the cooling system
components to cool before the cooling system is
drained.
Check the coolant level only after the engine has
been stopped.
Make sure the filler cap is cool before removing.
The filler cap must be cool enough to touch with a
bare hand. Remove the filler cap slowly to relieve
the pressure.
The cooling system conditioner contains alkali.
Alkali can cause personal injury.
Do not allow alkali to contact skin, eyes or mouth.

1.1.23 Oils
Pressurized hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil to contact skin. Do
not allow hot components to contact skin.
Remove the hydraulic tank filler cap only after the engine has been stopped.
The filler cap must be cool enough to touch with a bare hand. Follow the standard procedure in this manual
to remove the hydraulic tank and transmission filler caps.
1.1.24 High pressure lines
Do not bend or strike the high pressure lines. Do not install any lines that are bent or damaged.
Repair any loose or damaged lines. Leaks can cause fires. Consult your dealer for repair or for replacement
parts.
