Choose a clean, level work area. Make sure you have
sufficient room, clearances, and adequate ventilation.
Clean the walking and working surfaces. Remove oil,
grease and water to eliminate slippery areas. Utilize
sand or oil absorbing compound, as necessary, while
servicing the Telescopic Handler.
Before starting inspection and repair, move the
machine onto a level surface, shut down engine, and
release all hydraulic pressure. Always block the boom
securely, or lower it to full ground contact. Place all
controls in neutral.
Block the wheels. Remove the ignition key. Remove
only guards or covers that provide needed access.
Wipe away excess grease and oil.
NEVER weld on attachment tools, boom support
frame or overhead guards without the consent of the
manufacturer. Special metals may be used which
require special welding techniques or have a design
which should not have welded repairs. NEVER cut or
weld on fuel lines or tank.
Excessively worn or damaged parts can fail and cause
injury or death. Replace any cracked or damaged part.
Care should be taken to assure that all replacement
parts are interchangeable with original parts and of
equal quality.
Use care not to damage machined and polished sur-
faces. Clean or replace all damaged or painted over
plates and decals that cannot be read.
After servicing, check the work performed, no parts
left over, etc. Install all guards, covers.
CHECK FUEL TANK LEVEL
After operation each day, the fuel tank should be filled
to prevent water from condensing in the tank. To fill,
remove the filler cap and add fuel.
A drain plug is provided in the bottom of the fuel tank
for removing condensation and other foreign materi-
als. Open the plug and allow water and fuel to drain
into a container until only clear fuel is flowing from
the tank.
CHECK FUEL FILTER
NOTE:
The fuel filter will require occasional
replacement to maintain a clean and adequate
fuel flow for maximum engine horsepower. The
WARNING
DO NOT smoke or allow any open flames in
the area while checking or servicing
hydraulic, battery or fuel systems; all contain
highly flammable liquids or explosive gases
which can cause an explosion or fire if ignited.
Wear a face shield when you disassemble
spring loaded components or work with bat-
tery acid. Wear a helmet or goggles with spe-
cial lenses when you weld or cut with a torch.
When working beneath a raised machine,
always use blocks, jack-stands or other rigid
and stable supports. Wear appropriate protec-
tive clothing, gloves, shoes. Keep feet, cloth-
ing, hands and hair away from moving parts.
Always wear safety glasses or goggles for eye
protection from electric arcs from shorts, flu-
ids under pressure, and flying debris or loose
material when the engine is running or tools
are used for grinding or pounding.
NEVER weld on bucket, forks, boom, support
frame or overhead guards without the consent
of the manufacturer. Special metals may be
used which require special welding tech-
niques or have a design which should not
have welded repairs. NEVER cut or weld on
fuel lines or tanks.
If repair welding is ever required, BE SURE to
attach the ground (-) cable from the welder as
close as possible to the area to be repaired.
Also remove battery (+) positive terminal con-
nection before welding.
Service Every 10 Hours or Daily
WARNING
NEVER leave guards off or access doors open
when the machine is unattended. Keep
bystanders away if access doors are open.
