WARNING
Risk of crushing.
A raised attachment could fall and cause crushing
injury.
Before leaving the cab, always lower all
attachments to the ground and lock the control
functions.
1 Park the machine on firm, horizontal ground.
2 Park the machine in the parking position as
shown on the picture: open the bucket and lower
it to the ground and lower the dozer blade to the
ground.
If this is not possible, use the bucket and dozer
blade to secure the machine to a fixed object.
3 Check that all switches and controls are in off
position or in neutral.
4 Shut down the engine and pull out the ignition
key.
5 Check that there is enough anti-freeze in the
cooling system (see page

) and in the
windscreen washer reservoir if the temperature
can fall below 0 °C (32 °F) during parking.
6 Close and lock windows, door and covers.
7 Disconnect the battery by turning the battery
disconnect switch to off position and remove the
key.
Keep in mind that the theft and burglary risk can be
minimised by:
- removing the starter key when the machine is left
unattended
- locking doors and covers after working hours
- turning off the current with the battery disconnect
switch and removing the handle of the switch
- parking the machine where the risk of theft,
burglary and damage is minimised
- removing all valuables from the cab such as
cellular phone, computer, radio and bags
- chaining the machine.
