SR-44 Manual
6. Maintenance & Repair
Only trained and/ or qualified personnel shall perform any maintenance or repair.
High Voltage can cause severe injury or death. Disconnect and lockout
electrical power before performing maintenance or repair.
High pressure fluids can penetrate skin and cause severe injury or
death. Always relieve hydraulic system pressure before performing
maintenance or repair of the hydraulic system. Contact Customer
Service for assistance.
If damage or excessive wear is found, remove the machine from service
until the machine is repaired.
Do not enter within the guardrails unless the machine has been secured
with the maintenance chains and the machine has been de-energized.
Ensure maintenance chains are removed prior to operation.
Before performing maintenance rotate the machine 90° and secure
using the attached chains. Insert chains into the slots in the base of the
side platen. Always use chains on both sides of the machine.
Relieving hydraulic system pressure while the rotator mechanism is
unsecured will allow it to rotate uncontrolled which could lead to injury
and/or damage to the machine. Always secure with maintenance chains
before relieving hydraulic pressure.
Once maintenance/repair is complete and if hydraulic system pressure
has been relieved, the hydraulic system will need to be re-pressurized
before maintenance chains can be removed.
