Residual risks
DANGER OF CRUSHING
Always stay at a safe distance from moving parts.
DANGER OF BURNS
Pay the utmost attention to hot surfaces.
Hot fluid jets
After operation, the engine coolant is hot and under
pressure. Contact with hot water or steam leaks can
cause severe burns.
Avoid possible injuries caused by hot water jets. Do
not remove the radiator cap until the engine has
cooled down. To open, unscrew the cap until it stops.
Before removing the cap, discharge all of the pressure.
Hot fluids and surfaces
The oil in the engine, gearboxes and hydraulic system
heats up during vehicle operation. The engine, rigid
and flexible hoses and other components heat up.
Wait for the components to cool down before starting
maintenance or repairs.
PRESSURISED FLUIDS
Pressurised fluids such as fuel or hydraulic oil can
penetrate the skin or eyes, causing serious injury.
