SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
F156.6 / F156.6A
Carefully read personal and machine SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (at the beginning of this manual)
CLEANING JOBS
Clean the units within the working
range before starting work.
Select the cleaning agent according
to the material constituting the parts
to be cleaned.
Example: Never clean rubber or elec-
trical parts with solvents or steam
jets.
Use lint-free cleaning rags when
working on the hydraulic system or
the engine.
Cleaning agents and solvents may
give off harmful, readily flammable
vapours.
Never work with such agents except
on well ventilated premises; never in-
hale the vapours and never smoke.
Prevent solvents and cleaning
agents from coming into contact with
the skin.
Wear solvent-resistant gloves.
Observe the instructions on the
packaging.
HANDLING FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS
When handling flammable liquids:
- never smoke;
- keep away from unshielded light
sources and naked flames.
Fuel and other consumables often
have low flash points and are readily
ignited.
Never attempt to extinguish burning
liquids with water. Use:
- dry powder,
- carbon dioxide or
- foam extinguishers.
Wa t er u s ed f or ext in g u i sh in g
p u r p o s e s w o u l d v a p o u r i z e
instantaneously on contact with
burning substances and spread
burning oil, for example, over a wide
area. Water generates short circuits
in the electrical system, possibly
producing new hazards.
Notify the fire brigade.
FASTENING AND SECURING
ELEMENTS
Check fastening and securing ele-
ments, e.g. bolts, nuts, washers, be-
fore using them again.
Replace any damaged parts.
HANDLING OILS AND GREASES
Ho t lub rican t or hydraulic oil
emerging uncontrolled from the
system may result in severe burns.
Cool any burns immediately with
running water and apply a dry
dressing.
Never set foot within reach of the
emerging oil jet.
Avoid contact with the skin. Wear
gloves and firm protective clothing.
Used oil may be harmful to the skin.
Clean soiled skin thoroughly with
warm soapy water and apply a barrier
cream. Never use fuels or solvents
for cleaning the skin.
If you have swallowed any oil, avoid
vomiting but consult a doctor or a
hospital immediately.
VISIBLE LOSS OF OIL
Have any visible leakage repaired im-
mediately.
Escaping oil is an environmental
hazard.
Soak up any oil that has escaped with
a binding agent. Sweep up binding
agent and dispose of it separately
from other waste.
