1.
Read and understand the Assembly Manual and all safety signs before starting.
2. Follow good safety practices:
- Keep service area clean and dry.
- Be sure electrical outlets and tools are properly grounded.
- Use adequate light for the job at hand.
3. Use properly sized tools, stands, jacks and hoists at all times.
4. Dont' handle heavy and/or bulky components alone, ask for help.
5. Position in a large open area to allow access from all sides during assembly.
6. Keep the assembly area neat and clean to prevent slipping or tripping.
7. When using lifting equipment, place jack stands under the machine to securely stablize it before
working on, beside or under it during assembly.
8. Stay away from overhead power lines and obstructions when lifting the machine during as-
sembly. Contact with power lines can cause electrocution. Contact with obstructions can
damage components or cause them to fail.
9. Tighten all fasteners to their specified torque, then recheck before using the machine.

Torque figures indicated above are valid for non-greased or non-oiled threads and heads unless oth-
erwise specified. Therefore, do not grease or oil bolts or caps crews unless otherwise specified in this
manual. When using locking elements, increase torque values by 5%.
* Torque value for bolts and capscrews are identified by their head markings.
