When ejected under pressure, hydraulic fluid can penetrate through
clothes or skin and cause severe injuries!
Contact a doctor immediately in the event of injuries caused by hydraulic
fluid!
» Do not adjust overpressure valves.
» Only drain cold hydraulic fluid.
» Under no circumstances may the engine be started or operated manually once the
hydraulic fluid is drained.
» Collect spilt and drained-off hydraulic fluid in a container and dispose of in an
environmentally-friendly manner.
» Always check the hydraulic system for leaks when work of any kind is completed.
Changing hydraulic hoses
» Regularly check the hydraulic hoses.
» Hydraulic hoses should be replaced immediately in the event:
-
that the outer mantle is damaged (e.g. graze marks, cuts, tears),
-
that the outer mantle is brittle (tears in the hose material),
-
that under pressurized or non-pressurized conditions, deformation occurs which is
not due to the original shape of the hose,
-
that deformation occurs where the hose is bent (e.g. pressure points, bending points,
the outer mantle is detaching, bubble formation),
-
of leaks,
-
that a component is not installed according to the guidelines,
-
that the hydraulic hoses get separated from the couplings,
-
corrosion of the couplings which reduces function and solidity,
-
of damaged or deformed couplings reducing function and solidity.
Only original replacement hydraulics hoses from Tennant N.V. guarantee that
the proper hose type is used at the applicable place.
Working on the engine
» Only drain cold engine oil.
» Collect spilt and drained-off engine oil in a container and dispose of in an
environmentally-friendly manner.
» Place used oil filters and other oil-covered materials in a separate, labeled container and
treat them in an environmentally-friendly manner.
Working on electrical parts
» Remove the battery clamps from the battery and cover them with insulating material
before working on the electrical components.
Never use fuses of higher amperage and do not connect fuses with wire.
Fire hazard!
