• Do not attempt to mount a tire on a rim. This should
be done by a qualified person with the proper
equipment.
• Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not
inflate tires above the recommended pressure
shown in the operator's manual.
• Securely support the tractor when either changing
wheels or adjusting the wheel tread width.
• Make sure that wheel bolts have been tightened to
the specified torque.
• Disconnect the battery's ground cable and stop the
engine to avoid the possibility of the machine
runaway due to 4WD braking system during testing,
service or repair with only rear wheels off the
ground.
• Do not work under any hydraulically supported
devices. They can settle, suddenly leak down, or be
accidentally lowered. If it is necessary to work
under the tractor or any machine elements for
servicing or adjustment, securely support them with
stands or suitable blocking beforehand.
• Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure has
sufficient force to penetrate skin, causing serious
personal injury. Before disconnecting hydraulic
lines, be sure to release all residual pressure.
Before applying pressure to the hydraulic system,
make sure that all connections are tight and that all
lines, pipes, and hoses are free of damage.
• Fluid escaping from pinholes may be invisible. Do
not use hands to search for suspected leaks; use a
piece of cardboard or wood. Use of safety goggles
or other eye protection is also highly recommended.
If injured by escaping fluid, see a medical doctor at
once. This fluid will produce gangrene or severe
allergic reactions.

• Do not open the high-pressure fuel system.
High-pressure fluid remaining in fuel lines can
cause serious injury. Do not disconnect or attempt
to repair fuel lines, sensors, or any other
components between the high-pressure fuel pump
and injectors on engines with high pressure
common rail fuel system.
• To avoid hazardous high voltage, turn the key
switch to the “OFF” position if it is necessary to
check or repair the computer, harness or
connectors.
• During diesel particulate filter (hereinafter called
DPF) regenerating operations, exhaust gases and
exhaust filter components reach temperatures hot
enough to burn people, or ignite or melt common
materials.
• Keep the tractor away from people, animals or
structures which may be susceptible to harm or
damage from hot exhaust gases.
• To prevent fires, keep the DPF/SCR muffler and its
surroundings clear of anything flammable and keep
