Introduction
WARNING When using cleaning agents, solvents
or other chemicals, you must adhere to
the manufacturer's instructions and safety
precautions.
CAUTION To avoid burning, wear personal
protective equipment when handling hot
components. To protect your eyes, wear goggles
when using a brush to clean components.
Notice: Cleaning metal parts with incorrect
solvents can cause corrosion. Use only
recommended cleaning agents and solvents.
Notice: The efficiency of the rams will be affected
if they are not kept free of solidified dirt. Clean dirt
from around the rams regularly. When leaving or
parking the machine, close all rams if possible to
reduce the risk of weather corrosion.
Notice: Never use water or steam to clean inside
the operator station. The use of water or steam
could damage the machine electrics and render
the machine inoperable. Remove dirt using a
brush or damp cloth.
Clean the product with water and/or steam. Do not
let mud, debris etc. to collect on the product.
Before you do any service procedures that require
components to be removed:
• The cleaning must be done either in the area
of components to be removed, or in the case
of major work, or work on the fuel system, the
whole engine and the surrounding product must
be cleaned.
• When cleaning is complete, move the product
away from the wash area or alternatively,
remove the material washed from the product.
When you remove components, be aware of
exposure to dirt and debris. Cover any open ports
and remove the deposits before proceeding.
Detergents
Do not use a full strength detergent. Always
dilute the detergents as per the manufacturer's
recommendations, or damage to the paint finish can
occur.
