WARNING 1 : Crush Hazard
—The safety supports provide protection against the drifting
down of the vertically moving portion of the machine during maintenance in the event of a leak
in the hydraulic system. They are not intended to restrain the machine from coming down under
power.
• Never work in or near the path of the vertically moving portion of the machine unless the
safety supports are deployed and power is locked out/tagged out.
• Do not attempt to rest the safety stands on the floor by tilting the machine back under
power.
• Maintain the safety support(s) in good condition.
• Where a pair of safety supports is provided, always use both safety supports.
• When not in use, stow these safety components in the location provided on the machine.
