SECTION 100 - GENERAL INFORMATION

- The fuel pump nozzle must always remain in contact with the filler. Keep it there until you finish filling so
as to prevent sparks from being created through an accumulation of static electricity.
- Only use the prescribed hitching points when towing. Make the connections with care: make sure that
the provided pins and/or latches are firmly fixed in place before beginning to tow. Keep well away from
tow bars, ropes or chains that are pulling a load.
- If possible, use a trailer or truck with a lowered loading platform when transferring a faulty machine.
- When a machine must be loaded on to or unloaded from the transport vehicle, choose flat ground able
to provide a solid bearing surface for the wheels of the trailer or truck. Fasten the machine to the truck
or trailer platform firmly and block the wheels as required by the haulage contractor.
- Only use auxiliary power sources with grounding circuits able to prevent electric shocks from electric
heaters, battery chargers and similar equipment.
- Use hoists and similar equipment with an adequate carrying capacity if heavy parts must be lifted or
transported.
- Pay particular attention to bystanders.
- Never pour petrol or diesel fuel into wide and shallow open vessels.
- Never use petrol, diesel fuel or other inflammable fluids as detergents: use the non-flammable and non-
toxic solvents available in the shops.
- Protect your eyes by wearing goggles with side guards when using compressed air to clean parts.
- Limit the pressure to 2.1 bars at most, in compliance with the local or national laws in force.
- Do not run the engine in a closed room without adequate ventilation.
- Do not smoke, use naked flames or create sparks in the vicinity when refuelling or handling easily
inflammable materials.
- Do not use flames as a means of lighting when repairing the machine or searching for "leaks".
- Move with the greatest care when working under, on or near the machine. Wear approved safety gar-
ments such as helmets, goggles and safety footwear.
- When the engine must be running in order to make the inspections, ask for help from an operator who
must remain in the driver’s seat and keep the mechanic under visual control at all times.
- If servicing is required away from the workshop, park the machine on flat ground and block it. If work on
slopes is unavoidable, block the machine and move it to a horizontal surface as soon as this can be done
within a certain safety margin.
- Do not use crushed or bent chains or ropes when lifting or towing are required. Always wear suitably
thick gloves to handle them.
- Chains must be firmly fixed in place: make sure that the fastening is sufficiently strong to bear the load
in question. Have all bystanders move well clear of the connection, chains or ropes used for lifting or
towing.
- The area where the servicing operations are carried out must always be kept CLEAN and DRY. Puddles or
water or oil stains must be cleaned up immediately.
- Do not form heaps of rags soaked in grease or oil: they could catch fire very easily. Always put them in a
closed metal container.
Check, regulate and lock the driver’s seat before starting the machine or implements. Make sure that
there are no bystanders within the range of action of the machine or implements.
- Do not carry objects that could drop unseen into the internal mechanisms of the machine, in your pock-
ets.
- Wear goggles with side guards, helmets, special safety footwear and gloves when you could be struck by
metal objects and similar, thrown up during the servicing work.
- Use the necessary safety protections when welding operations are carried out: dark glasses, helmets,
dungarees, special gloves and footwear. Dark glasses should also be worn by the people not actually
doing the work but who are in the vicinity when welding is being carried out. NEVER LOOK AT THE
WELDING ARC WITHOUT ADEQUATE EYE PROTECTION.
- Metal ropes become frayed with wear: always protect yourself in an adequate way when handling them
(wear gloves, goggles, etc.).
