Handling of fuel and oil products:
•
Do not let any oil leak on the ground.
•
Use oil qualities recommended by the manufacturer. Do not mix different oil types
and/or brands with each other.
•
When handling oil always wear appropriate protective equipment.
•
Before refueling always stop the engine/electric motor and disconnect from mains
current.
•
Only use fuels recommended by the engine manufacturer. Do not mix any additives
with the fuel.
•
If fuel or oil gets into eyes, mouth or open wound, clean immediately with a lot of
water or designated fluid and call a doctor.
Check hydraulic hoses and components only when the engine is stopped and with pressure
released from the hydraulic system. Do not operate the machine if you have noticed faults or
leaks in hydraulic system. Ejection of hydraulic fluid can cause burns or penetrate the skin
and cause serious injuries. Consult a doctor immediately if hydraulic fluid penetrates your
skin. Wash carefully with water and soap any body part that has come in contact with
hydraulic oil. Hydraulic oil is also harmful to the environment
– prevent oil leakages. Only use
hydraulic oil type approved by the manufacturer.
Never handle pressurized hydraulic components, because
in case of failure on a fitting or component ejection of high
pressure hydraulic fluid can cause tipping over of the
machine and serious injuries. Do not operate the machine
if you have noticed a fault in the hydraulic system.
Check hydraulic hoses for eventual cracks and wear. Follow the wear of the hoses and stop
operation if the outer layer of any hose has worn out. Check routing of the hoses, adjust the
hose clamps if necessary in order to prevent chafing. Hydraulic hoses have finite service life
and the expiration date is marked on the hoses. After that they have to be changed. If there
are signs of oil leakage, put a piece of cardboard under the probable leakage place in order
to find the leakage.
If you find a fault, operation of the access platform must be stopped immediately and the
hose or the component must be replaced. Contact Leguan service.
