INSPECTION AND SERVICING
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
WORKSHOP MANUAL
No inspection and servicing work
must be carried out until the Service
Manual has been read and under-
stood.
Pay special attention to the:
"Fundamental Safety Instructions"
and all warnings and safety instruc-
tions attached to the machine.
The Workshop Manual contains the
necessary information in order to
perform all repair and maintenance
jobs.
However working on the machine
must be carried out only by special-
ised personnel specially trained for
this activity.
INSPECTION AND SERVICING
PERSONNEL
Inspection and servicing personnel
must have the necessary knowhow
on the inspection and servicing of
this or comparable machines.
The necessary know-how can be ac-
quired in several days’ instruction,
e.g. by a CNH mechanic or by at-
tending a CNH training course.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT
AND WORKING CLOTHING
Wear closely fitting working clothing
when working on the machine.
Loose, wide garments may catch on
machine parts and result in injury.
Wear a safety helmet, safety foot-
wear, gloves and, in the event of high
noise levels, ear protectors.
SECURING WORKING EQUIPMENT
Stand working equipment on the
ground in such a way that no move-
ments can be made if mechanical or
hydraulic connections become de-
tached.
When working in jointed areas, block
off the joints. Remove the blocks on
finishing work.
If the machine has to be jacked up,
the front axle must first be wedged
in place to prevent it from moving.
Secure any equipment or component
which is to be mounted or disman-
tled, or whose position is to be
changed, with hoists or appropriate
slinging/supporting devices to pre-
vent them from moving, slipping or
falling inadvertently.
SECURING THE MACHINE
Carry out servicing work only if the
machine is secured as described in
the chapter "Securing the Machine".
CLIMBING ONTO AND OFF
THE MACHINE
Use only the steps, platforms and
handrails provided when climbing
onto or off the machine.
Always keep steps, platforms, han-
dles and handrails in a non-slip, safe
state and remove any oil, grease,
soil, clay, snow, ice and other foreign
matter immediately.
Always face the machine when
climbing on and off.
CHECK STATE OF TOOLS
Use only fully functional, reliable
tools.
Select the right tool for the job.
Wrenches of the wrong size, for ex-
ample, may slip and cause injury.
