indicator needle moves to below 1/4 tank. Refer to
the maintenance procedures in section 7 -
Maintenance . Select the proper grade of fuel
in accordance with the instructions given in the

Maintain fuel tank(s) at a high level to minimize
water condensation inside the tank(s). This is best
accomplished by filling the fuel tanks at the end of
each shift or day. Check the fuel tank for possible
leaks. Because of the potential fire hazard, leaks
must be corrected as soon as they are spotted.
1. Check the fuel level by reading the fuel level
gauge.
2. Do not allow the fuel tank to completely empty,
otherwise the entire fuel system will require
bleeding.

with battery fluid can cause injury. Avoid
skin and eye contact with battery fluid. If

water.
Check the battery posts and cables for corrosion.
Check and keep the electrolyte levels above the
battery plates or to the bottom of the fill holes.
Refer to section 7 - Maintenance for the correct
procedures.

Before starting the roller, check that the warning
lights, backup alarm, horn and emergency stop
