IV. MAINTENANCE
1.
Before servicing the
machine, turn off engine
and allow all moving parts
to stop. To prevent acci-
dental starting, discon-
nect battery cables. Tag
the engine operating area
to show that the machine
is being serviced. Use
lockout/tagout procedure (Occupational Health and
Safety Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.147).
2. Certain
hydroseeding
amendments, when com-
bined with or without the
addition of water or heat or
the element of time, may
react causing harmful or
deadly gasses. Consult
your material suppliers
regarding reactivity infor-
mation. The slurry tank must be flushed and drained
after each day of operation.
3. Your slurry tank may be considered a confined space
by OSHA under 29 CFR 1910.146. Before entering
any confined space, your company must develop a
procedure for safe entry. Make sure your company’s
plan meets all the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.146,
or local legal requirement, including the following:
a) Drain, flush, and ventilate tank interior.
b) Turn off engine, disconnect battery cables, and
perform lockout/tagout procedures (29 CFR
1910.147).
c) Provide continuous ventilation or proper breath-
ing apparatus.
d) If tank must be entered, personnel entering the
tank must be tethered to a lifeline.
e) Provide a stand-by individual outside of tank
who is able to communicate with person inside
and haul him out with the lifeline if necessary.
4.
Before loosening any
clamps or opening any
valves, determine if mate-
rial in the line is hot by feel-
ing the pipe. Do NOT allow
material to come in con-
tact with personnel. Severe
bodily injury could result.
5. On trailer units, perform general maintenance such
as checking the safety chains, hitch and hitch bolts,
tires, and brakes. Repair or replace if worn or bro-
ken. Never operate machine on improperly inflated
or damaged tires. Always use a safety cage or cable
restraints when inflating a repaired tire.
6. Radiator maintenance: Liquid cooling systems build
up pressure as the engine gets hot. Before removing
radiator cap, stop the engine and let the system cool.
Remove radiator cap only after the coolant is cool.
7. Battery maintenance: Lead-acid batteries contain
sulfuric acid, which will damage eyes or skin on con-
tact. Always wear a face shield to avoid getting acid
in the eyes. If acid contacts the eyes, flush imme-
diately with clean water and get medical attention.
Wear rubber gloves and protective clothing to keep
acid off skin. Lead-acid batteries produce flammable
and explosive gasses. Keep arcs, sparks, flames,
and lighted tobacco away.
8. Filling of fuel: Never fill the tank with the engine run-
ning, while smoking, or when near an open flame.
Never smoke while handling fuel or working on the
fuel system. The fumes in an empty fuel container
are explosive. Never cut or weld on fuel lines, tanks,
or containers. Move at least 10 ft (3 m) away from
fueling point before starting engine. Wipe off any
spilled fuel and let dry before starting engine.
IMPORTANT:
Be careful not to allow fuel, lubricant,
hydraulic fluid, or cooling fluids to penetrate into
the ground or be discharged into the water system.
Collect all fluids and dispose of them in accordance
with local municipal regulations.
9. It is recommended that only authorized, genuine
FINN replacement parts be used on the machine.
10. Do not use either cold start fluid, if engine is
equipped with glow plug-type preheater, or other
intake manifold type preheater. It could cause an
explosion or fire and severe injury or death.
11. Diesel fuel or hydraulic fluid under pressure can pen-
etrate the skin or eyes and cause injury, blindness,
or death. Pressure may build up in the hydraulic
system; use caution when removing the cap.
12. Make certain that all decals on the machine are
maintained in good legible condition. Replacement
decals are available through FINN Corporation by
specifying part number shown in the lower right-hand
corner of the decal. See page 5 for the current safety
decals mounted on the unit. See pages 54 and 55 in
the Parts Manual for the location and quantity of all
decals on this unit.
