Safety during maintenance
Observe the following when maintenance work is to be performed:
• Always turn off the engine during service work. Only exception is
when service work requires engine power.
• No work may be done on the machine without the right knowledge
and skills to do the work correctly. Service performed incorrectly
may be dangerous.
• Always use a hard hat, protective glasses, gloves, work shoes
and other protective items as required by the work situation.
• Read all plates and instructions on the machine and in the opera-
tor’s manual before performing any maintenance. Each one con-
tains important information about handling and service.
• Avoid spills when draining/filling oils and fuel. Use reservoirs/
tanks, pump, hose, etc. for safe handling. Oils and fuels cause en-
vironmental damage and should be taken care of by an authorised
company.
• Always drain the pressure from the accumulators before any work
on the hydraulic system.
