Perform Maintenance Safely
Prepare The Work Area
— Position the compact excavator in a level area out of
the way of other working equipment.
— Make sure there is adequate light, ventilation and
clearance.
— Remove oil, grease, ice and snow or water to
eliminate any slippery surfaces.
— Clean around the machine and work area to minimize
contamination. Clean up oil or fuel spills promptly
and dispose of the material properly.
Prepare The Machine
— Attach a “DO NOT OPERATE” warning tag to the
control levers and remove the ignition key if the
machine should not be started.
— Block the tracks.
— Release all hydraulic, water and air pressure. Lower,
lock or block all hydraulically supported components.
WARNING!
Disconnecting or loosening any hydraulic
component or a part failure can cause unsupported
equipment to drop.
Do not go under or near raised
equipment unless supported by a manufacturer-
approved support device(s).
Death or serious injury
could result from falling equipment.

the area being serviced. Replace all guards and
