Decommissioning The Machine - New Holland LW170 Service Manual

LW170-LW190

DECOMMISSIONING THE MACHINE

For the decommissioning of the machine, the
availability of particular tooling (hoists, hydraulic
presses. containers for liquids etc.) is required as
well as specific tools listed in the Repair Manuals,
available from NEW HOLLAND Dealers.
This has the purpose of avoiding that during
disassembly operations, dangerous situations may
arise both for the personnel involved and the
environment.
In the machine are present:
• Fluids under pressure (hydraulic system, cooling
system etc.)
• Gases (air conditioning system and accumulator, if
installed)
• Mechanical devices mounted under pressure
(track tensioner etc.)
• Heavy machine components (frames, blades,
buckets etc.)
Ensure that the attachment is safely resting on to the ground before repairing,adjusting, or servicing
machines fitted with hydraulically, mechanically or cable controlled attachments (such as excavators,
loaders, dozers, scrapers, etc.). Should it be necessary to partially or fully raise the hydraulically,
mechanically, or cable controlled attachment to gain access to certain items, make sure the attachment
is adequately retained in the raised position by means other than the hydraulic lift cylinders, cable and/or
mechanical devices used for controlling it.
Carefully read personal and machine SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (at the beginning of this manual)
SAFETY RULES
