CE SPECIFIC NOTICES
EMERGENCY STOP FUNCTION
To immediately stop the motion of this equipment:
1. Operator is to release joystick button(s).
Additional secondary alternative measures to immediately stop the motion include:
2. Moving wheel loader’s auxiliary hydraulic 3rd spool lever to neutral position
3. And/or turning off the ignition key of the wheel loader to shut off the engine
All three emergency stop options above ultimately stop the flow of hydraulic fluid.
Notice:
Even after emergency stop function is followed, there is residual stored
hydraulic pressure in the system. See following:
THIS EQUIPMENT IS OPERATED BY HIGH PRESSURE HYDRAULICS
Hydraulics are a stored power source and as such must be treated as energized at
all times. Be certain pressure has been relieved prior to handling, inspecting or per-
forming maintenance on this unit. Follow lockout tag out procedures and release all
stored energy before servicing equipment. Failure to release energy or disable hy-
draulic energy can result in serious injury or death. High pressure fluids can also
discharge at great velocity. Be certain to wear safety glasses while inspecting, oper-
ating and maintaining equipment.
STAY CLEAR
•
Do not lift persons with this equipment.
•
People should always stand a safe distance away from this equipment.
•
Do not go near or under this equipment or any object lifted by this equipment.
ENERGY ISOLATION
Follow Refer to
“DISCONNECTION” information within this manual and the ma-
chine’s OEM manual. Stored energy, such as gravity, hydraulics or other sources
pose a risk to anyone near or servicing this equipment. Be sure release and remove
all stored energy sources before servicing.
The symbol at the left indicates hydraulic hose coupling quick release self sealing
. It
is recommended to be installed by the customer at the time this equipment is initially
attached to the wheel loader.
POWER FAILURE
In the event of electrical or hydraulic supply failure from the wheel loader occurs, the
equipment will stop further motion. Under normal circumstances the equipment is
not expected to drop a load.
The symbol at the left indicates the hydraulic controls on
this equipment are normally closed.
Thus without electrical power the gate valves
are closed, in essence halting further movement.
SOUND
This equipment does not emit more than 70dba.
VIBRATIONS
This equipment does not transfer vibrations in excess of 2.5m/s2.
OPERATING TEMPERATURE
This equipment is best suited to operate in temperatures between 30°F to 90°F
with minimum allowable temperature –25°F and maximum temperature 150°F
