• The fuel nozzle should always be in contact with the filling aperture: Maintain this contact until the fuel stops flowing
into the tank to avoid possible sparks due to static electricity buildup.
• Only use specified towing points for towing the vehicle. Connect parts carefully. Make sure that all pins and/or
locks are secured in position before applying traction. Never remain near the towing bars, cables or chains that are
operating under load.
• Transport vehicles that cannot be driven using a trailer or a low-loading platform trolley, if available.
• When loading or unloading the vehicle from the trailer (or other means of transport), select a flat area capable of
sustaining the trailer or truck wheels. Firmly secure the vehicle to the truck or trailer and lock the wheels in the
position used by the carrier.
• Electric heaters, battery-chargers and similar equipment must only be powered by auxiliary power supplies with
efficient ground insulation to avoid electrical shock hazards.
• Always use suitable hoisting or lifting devices when raising or moving heavy parts.
• Take extra care if bystanders are present.
• Never pour petrol or diesel oil into open, wide or low containers.
• Never use gasoline, diesel oil or other inflammable liquids as cleaning agents. Use non-inflammable, non-toxic
commercially available solvents.
• Wear safety goggles with side guards when cleaning parts with compressed air.
• Limit the air pressure to a maximum of 2.1 bar, according to local regulations.
• Do not run the engine in confined spaces without suitable ventilation.
• Do not smoke, use naked flames, or cause sparks in the area when fuel filling or handling highly inflammable liquids.
• All movements must be carried out carefully when working under, on or near the vehicle. Wear suitable safety
clothing, i.e., hard hat, safety goggles and special shoes.
• When carrying out checks with the engine running, request the assistance of an operator in the driver's seat. The
operator must maintain visual contact with the service technician at all times.
• If operating outside the workshop, position the vehicle on a flat surface and lock in position. If working on a slope,
lock the vehicle in position. Move to a flat area as soon as is safely possible.
• If operating outside the workshop, position the vehicle on a flat surface and lock in position. If working on a slope,
lock the vehicle in position.
Move to a flat area as soon as is safely possible.
• Damaged or bent chains or cables are unreliable. Do not use them for lifting or towing. Always use suitable pro-
tective gloves when handling chains or cables.
• Chains should always be safely secured. Make sure that the hitch-up point is capable of sustaining the load in
question. Keep the area near the hitch-up point, chains or cables free of all bystanders.
• Maintenance and repair operations must be carried out in a CLEAN and DRY area. Eliminate any water or oil
spillage immediately.
• Do not create piles of oil or grease-soaked rags as they represent a serious fire hazard. Always place them into a
metal container.
Before starting the tractor or its attachments, check, adjust and block the operator's seat. Also check that there are
no persons within the vehicle or implement range of action.
• Empty pockets of all objects that may fall unobserved into the vehicle parts.
• In the presence of protruding metal parts, use protective goggles or goggles with side guards, helmets, special
footwear and gloves.
• When welding, use protective safety devices: tinted safety goggles, helmets, special overalls, gloves and footwear.
All persons present in the area where welding is taking place must wear tinted goggles. NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY
AT THE WELDING ARC WITHOUT SUITABLE EYE PROTECTION.
• Metal cables tend to fray with repeated use. Always use suitable protective devices (gloves, goggles, etc.) when
handling cables.
• Handle all parts with great care. Do not put your hands or fingers between moving parts. Always wear suitable
safety clothing-safety goggles, gloves and shoes.
