CHAPTER 1 - PRECAUTIONS
J-600 ELECTRIC
Maintenance safety
The knowledge and the follow of recommenda-
tions in this manual minimize the cost of mainte-
nance and increase the equipment lifetime.
∙ The maintenance job must be done by capable
and qualified professionals. Even if the equipment
has been rinsed, it’s necessary the use of the follo-
wing EPIs: long sleeve coverall, waterproof jacket,
gloves, safety glasses, boots and specific mask
with the appropriated filter.
∙ Use original parts, they guarantee a perfect ope-
rating of the equipment.
∙ Maintenance repair must be done with the equi-
pment connected to the tractor, with the tires blo-
cked and the tractor’s engine and the PTO off.
∙ Do not improvise or use inapproprieated when
doing the equipment’s maintenance.
∙ Filters and lubricate oils must be checked pe-
riodically and changed always when necessary or
recommended.
∙ All maintenance labor in tubing or hydraulic’s
hoses must be done after removing the pressure
from the circuit. Be caution during this type of
maintenance.
∙ The identification of possible leakeage must be
done with paper, and never by hand.
∙ Being the equipment connected to the tractor
and to the PTO, be carefull and stay away from
the equipment’s moving parts; they must be with
it’s protections. In case of doubt, call for technical
assistance.
∙ If there’s no possibility to do the maintanence
with the tractor’s engine off and out of the buil-
ding, keep doors and windows wide open to cir-
culate the air. The running of engines in closed
areas produce toxic gas and can asfixiate the ope-
rator in minutes.
∙ It’s prohibited to clean, lubricate and do
maintenance with the machine running, except
if it’s required and in this case specials measures
for protection and signage must be taken to avoid
accident.
∙ The welding labor to booms, chassis or any me-
tal part of the equipment, must be done only after
removing the battery’s cables from the tractor and
tank drain and rinse.
∙ Always keep the stickers on the machine in per-
fect conditions. They provide important warning
and recommendations.
∙ The removable protectors must be removed only
for maintanence, lubrication or adjust purposes.
They must be put back in place.
∙ The lubrication labor must be done by a qua-
lified person. This procedure involves many risks
like: slipery, contamination, etc. For this process
, it’s recommended to use gloves, safety glasses,
boots. If the equipment is used, use facial breath
protector (mask) approprieated.
∙ Do not get into the 160 gallons tank. If necessary
call technical assistance.
