Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard.
Protect hands and body from high-pressure
fluids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor
immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin
must be surgically removed within a few
hours or gangrene may result. Doctors
unfamiliar with this type of injury should
reference a knowledgeable medical source.
Inspect Lift Circuit Hoses
Avoid serious injury or death while working
under a raised implement. Hydraulic hoses
between the lift cylinders and hydraulic lock-
up valves should be inspected frequently for
leakage, kinking, cuts, cracks, abrasion,
blisters, corrosion, exposed wire braid, or
any other signs of wear or damage. Worn or
damaged hose assemblies can fail during
use and should be replaced immediately.
See your Fast Ag Solutions dealer for
replacement hoses.
Store Attachments Safely
Stored attachments such as dual wheels can
fall and cause serious injury or death.
Securely store attachments and implements
to prevent falling. Keep playing children and
bystanders away from storage area.
Electrical
Check all electrical wiring and connections
for damage. Keep the battery terminals clean
and tight. Repair or replace any damaged
part or wires that are loose or frayed.
Service Tires Safely
Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you
have the proper equipment and experience
to perform the job.
Never weld or heat a wheel and tire
assembly. The heat can cause an increase in
air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform
the wheel.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do
not inflate the tires above the recommended
pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel and tire
assembly. The heat can cause an increase in
air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
CAUTION: Explosive separation
of a tire and rim parts can cause
serious injury or death.
