GENERAL
Cautions on working on the machine
• When performing maintenance on the machine,
clean up the foot area and strictly observe the fol-
lowing so as not to fall:
• Do not spill oil or grease.
• Do not leave tools laying around.
• When walking, watch your step.
• Never jump off the machine. Use the steps and
handrails when climbing on and off the machine,
and always support your body at three points with
your hands and feet.
• Use protective equipment as required by job con-
ditions.
Use caution when fueling
• Do not smoke or permit open flames while fuel-
ing or near fueling operations.
• Never remove the fuel cap or refuel with the en-
gine running or hot. Never allow fuel to spill on
hot machine components.
• Maintain control of the fuel filler nozzle when
filling the tank.
• Do not fill the fuel tank to capacity. Allow room
for expansion.
• Clean up spilled fuel immediately.
• Tighten the fuel tank cap securely. Should the
fuel cap be lost, replace it only with the original
manufacturer
·
s approved cap. Use of a non-ap-
proved cap without proper venting may result in
pressurization of the tank.
• Never use fuel for cleaning purposes.
• Use the correct fuel grade for the operating sea-
son.
Handling of hoses
Fuel, oil or hydraulic fluid leaks can cause a fire.
• Do not twist, bend or hit the hoses.
• Never use twisted, bent or cracked hoses, tubes
and pipes. They may burst.
• Retighten loose connections.
Be careful with hot and pressurized
components
Stop the engine and allow the machine to cool down
before performing inspection and maintenance.
• The engine, muffler, radiator, hydraulic lines,
sliding parts and many other parts of the machine
are hot directly after the engine is stopped. Touch-
ing these parts will cause burns.
• The engine coolant, oil and hydraulic fluid are
also hot and under high pressure.
Be careful when loosening caps and plugs. Work-
ing on the machine under these conditions could
result in burns or injuries due to the hot oil spurt-
ing out.
Be careful with hot cooling systems
Do not remove the radiator cap or drain plugs when
the coolant is hot. Stop the engine, let the engine
and radiator cool and loosen the radiator cap or drain
plugs slowly.
