5. ELECTROLYTIC BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Do not touch the internal battery elements.
Battery acid burns the skin and can cause blindness if it is splashed into the eyes.
In the event of contact with the acid, rinse the skin contacted with lots of water.
Use bicarbonate of soda to neutralise the acid.
If the acid gets in your eyes, rinse thoroughly and call for medical treatment immediately.
During battery servicing, remember that charging or discharging generates a highly explosive mixture of hydrogen and
oxygen.
A flame or spark can ignite these gases.
ALWAYS wear protective glasses and gloves when working with the battery.
6. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Before disconnecting a hydraulic line on the machine, be sure that:
-
the shovel, if present, is on the ground
- the tool holder is in the lowered position
- the engine is off
- the pressurised air has been relieved from the hydraulic tank
- the control levers are moved repeatedly to lower the pressure in the pistons.
Before switching on the engine, make sure that all the connections are firmly tightened and that all the pipes and fittings
are in good conditions.
If you are struck by escaping pressurised hydraulic fluid, serious reactions can occur if proper medical
treatment is not administered immediately.
