Hydraulic Fluid
Fine jets of hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin.
Relieve all pressure before dismantling any hydraulic system.
Do not use your fingers to check for small leaks or expose uncovered areas of your body to leaks.
Use a piece of cardboard or thick paper to check for leaks.
Fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with
this type of injury or gangrene will result
2.9
Fluid Levels
Make sure the machine is on firm, level stable ground. It must not be in a dangerous position or
causing an obstruction. Apply the parking brake. Place gear lever is in neutral and the make sure
engine is stopped before checking ALL fluid levels.

Battery Electrolyte
Contact with battery acid can cause serious burns, blindness or even death. Protective clothing,
gloves and a face shield must be worn at all times when handling or working on a battery.
(1)
Skin Exposure
If the skin is exposed to battery electrolyte, the affected skin must be washed immediately with
running water.
If burning is severe seek immediate medical attention.
(2)
Eye Contact
If eyes are exposed to battery electrolyte, wash eyes with running water and obtain immediate
professional medical attention.
(3)
Battery Charging
When charging the battery hydrogen gas is produced.
Make sure the area is well ventilated to prevent the risk of explosion from a build up of hydrogen.
(4)
Frozen Battery Electrolyte
Batteries with frozen electrolyte may explode if used or charged.
Never 'jump start' a machine with a frozen battery.
To help prevent freezing, keep the battery fully charged.
Do Not Use a Machine with Frozen Battery Electrolyte
2.11
Fires
