•
Use solid support blocking. Never rely on jacks or other inadequate supports when
maintenance work is being done. Never work under any equipment supported only by
jacks.
•
Do not use the lift or tilt hydraulics to lift or support the machine for maintenance or
service.
•
At least 2 people must be present if the engine must be run during service. Both per-
sons must maintain visual contact with each other. Keep a safe distance away from all
rotating and moving parts.
•
Safety-critical parts must be periodically replaced. Replace the following potentially
flammable components as soon as they begin to show signs of deterioration:
•
Fuel system flexible hoses and the fuel filler cap.
•
Hydraulic system hoses, especially the pump outlet lines. Replace hydraulic hoses
every 6 years from the date of manufacture, even if they do not appear damaged.
The date of manufacture (month or quarter and year) is indicated on the hydraulic
hoses. See “Hydraulic Hose Maintenance” on page 146.
•
Do not modify the ROPS/FOPS unless instructed to do so in installation instructions.
Modifications such as welding, drilling, cutting or relocating fasteners, can weaken the
structure and reduce the protection it provides. A damaged ROPS/FOPS cannot be
repaired – it must be replaced.
•
Unauthorized modifications to the machine can cause injury or death. Never make
unauthorized modifications to any part of the machine. Any modification made with-
out authorization from Manitou Americas could create a safety hazard, for which the
machine owner would be responsible.
•
Keep mounting brackets and hose and cable routing straps tight. Hose routings should
have gradual bends.
•
After cleaning the machine, examine all fuel, lubricant and hydraulic oil lines for
leaks, chafe marks and damage. Tighten any loose connections and repair or replace
parts as necessary.
•
Always use the proper tools while working on the machine. Inappropriate tools could
break or slip, causing injury, or they may not adequately perform intended functions.
•
Hydraulic line and hoses must be routed and fitted properly. Make sure no connections
are interchanged.
•
Do not use the machine when maintenance is scheduled to be performed. Postponing
maintenance can result in a serious reduction of the service life of the machine, more
serious and costly equipment failures, and contribute to unsafe operating conditions.
•
When handling oil, grease and other chemical substances, follow the product-related
safety requirements Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) carefully to prevent burning
or scalding.
•
If the Information Center Electronic Display is broken, avoid contact with any leaking
LCD fluid. Wipe any LCD fluid off of skin with a cloth and wash the area with mild
soap and water. Thoroughly rinse LCD fluid from eyes with clean water for several
minutes and seek medical assistance. If LCD fluid is swallowed, rinse mouth thor-
oughly with clean water, then drink a substantial volume of water and induce vomiting
and seek medical assistance.
