PREVENT FIRE
Fire caused by fuel, oil, coolant, or window washer fluid
Do not bring any open flame close to flammable substances
such as fuel, oil, coolant, or window washer fluid. There is a
danger that they may catch fire. Always observe the following.
• Do not smoke or use any open flame near fuel or other
flammable substances.
• Shut down the engine before adding fuel.
• Do not leave the machine when adding fuel or oil.
• Tighten all the fuel and oil caps securely.
• Be careful not to spill fuel on overheated surfaces or on
parts of the electrical system.
• After adding fuel or oil, wipe up any spilled fuel or oil.
• Put greasy rags and other combustible materials into a
safe container to maintain safety at the workplace.
• When washing parts with oil, use a non-flammable oil. Do
not use diesel fuel or gasoline. There is danger that they
may catch fire.
• Do not weld or use a cutting torch to cut any pipes or tubes
that contain combustible liquids.
• Determine well-ventilated areas for storing oil and fuel.
Keep the oil and fuel in the specified place and do not allow unauthorized persons to enter.
• When performing grinding or welding work on the machine, move any flammable materials to a safe place
before starting.
Fire caused by accumulation of combustible material.
• Remove any dry leaves, chips, pieces of paper, coal dust, or any other combustible materials accumulated
or affixed around the engine exhaust manifold, muffler, or battery, or inside the undercovers.
• To prevent fires from spreading sparks or burning particles from other fires, remove any combustible materi-
als such as dry leaves, chips, pieces of paper, coal dust, or any other combustible materials accumulated
around the cooling system (radiator, oil cooler) or inside the undercover.
Fire coming from electric wiring
Short circuits in the electrical system can cause fire. Always observe the following.
• Keep all the electric wiring connections clean and securely tightened.
• Check the wiring every day for looseness or damage. Reconnect any loose connectors or refasten wiring
clamps. Repair or replace any damaged wiring.
Fire caused from piping
Check that all the hose and tube clamps, guards, and cushions are securely fixed in position.
If they are loose, they may vibrate during operation and rub against other parts. There is danger that this may
lead to damage to the hoses and cause high-pressure oil to spurt out, leading to fire and serious personal injury.
Fire around the machine due to highly heated exhaust gas
This machine is equipped with Komatsu Diesel Particulate Filter (hereafter KDPF).
