SA-23
Check Emergency Engine Stop Switch:
•
If a fire breaks out, failure to release pressurized air
inside the hydraulic tank will escalate fire, hamper-
ing fire fighting.
•
Check the emergency engine stop switch func-
tion every 250 hours:
1) Start the engine and run it at slow Idle.
2) Turn the emergency engine stop switch to the
EMERG. STOP position.
3) Confirm that both engines stop and that
pressurized air inside the hydraulic oil tank is
released (a hissing sound should be heard).
•
If any abnormalities are found, be sure to repair
them before operating the machine.
Check Heat Shields:
•
Damaged or missing heat shields may lead to fires.
•
Damaged or missing heat shields must be
repaired or replaced before operating the
machine.
