WARNING! Escaping hydraulic / diesel fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin
causing serious injury. Fluid escaping from a very small hole can be almost
invisible. Use a piece of cardboard or wood, rather than hands to search for
suspected leaks.
Keep unprotected body parts, such as face, eyes, and arms as far away as
possible from a suspected leak. Flesh injected with hydraulic fluid may de
-
velop gangrene or other permanent disabilities. If injured by injected fluid,
see a doctor at once.
Stop the engine and relieve pressure before connecting or disconnecting
lines. Tighten all connections before starting engine or pressurizing lines
