Stop the engine and allow the machine to
cool down before performing

of the machine are hot immediately after
the engine is stopped. Touching these
parts will cause burns.

Be careful not to touch the hydraulic oil
when loosening the cap or plug.
Working on the machine under these
conditions could result in burns or

metal powder. If it contains large amounts
of metal powder, consult your sales or
service dealer.
