Fire Prevention Measures
There is always a risk of fire. It is important that you use a fire
extinguisher that suits your machine and working environment
and that you learn how to use it. The fire extinguisher must be
placed behind the seat or externally in a lockable box.
If the machine is to be provided with a handheld fire extinguisher, it
must be of the ABE type (ABC in the USA), which means that it
is possible to extinguish fires in both solid and liquid carbonaceous
material and that the active compound does not conduct
electricity.
The effectiveness grade I means that the time the extinguisher is
effective must not be less that eight seconds, grade II at least
eleven seconds and grade III at least fifteen seconds.
A handheld fire extinguisher ABE I (in the USA ABC type)
normally corresponds to a powder content of 4 kg (8.8 lb)
(EN-grade 13A89BC), the EN 3-1995 standard, parts 1, 2, 4 and
5.
At the slightest sign of fire, and if the situation allows, take the
following steps:
1.
Drive the machine away from the fire sensitive area
caused by the fire.
2.
Lower the lifting arms to the ground.
3.
Shut down engine by turning the ignition key to the "0"
(OFF) position.
4.
Leave the cabin.
5.
Turn off the battery disconnect switch.
6.
Start putting out the fire and notify the fire brigade/
department if necessary.
It is forbidden to smoke or have an open flame near a machine
when filling with fuel or when the fuel system has been opened
and in contact with the surrounding air.
Diesel fuel oil is flammable and must not be used for cleaning.
Use an approved solvent and do not inhale the fumes. Also bear
in mind that certain solvents can cause skin rashes and
constitute a fire hazard.
Flammable starting must not be used due to the use of the
electric preheating in the induction air system.
Keep the place clean where the service is to be carried out. Oil
or water makes the floor slippery and is also dangerous in
connection with electrical equipment or electrically powered
tools. Oily or greasy clothes are a serious fire hazard.
Check daily that the machine and the equipment, e.g.
underbody plates are free from dust and oil. In this way the risk
of fire is reduced and it is easier to detect faulty or loose components.
NOTE:
If a high-pressure jet is used for cleaning, take great
care as the insulation of electric leads can be
damaged even at a moderately high-pressure and
