Prevent Fires
Check for Oil Leaks:
Fuel, hydraulic oil and lubricant leaks can lead to fires,
possibly resulting in personal injury or death.
Check for missing or loose clamps, kinked hoses, lines or
hoses that rub against each other, damage to the oil-
cooler, and loose oil-cooler flange bolts, for oil leaks.
Tighten, repair or replace any missing, loose or damaged
clamps, lines, hoses, oil-cooler and oil-cooler flange bolts.
Do not bend or strike high-pressure lines.
Never install bent or damaged lines, pipes or hoses.
Check for Shorts:
Short circuits can cause fires.
Clean and tighten all electrical connections.
Check before each shift or after eight (8) to ten (10) hours
operation for loose, kinked, hardened or frayed electrical
cables and wires.
Check before each shift or after eight (8) to ten (10) hours
operation for missing or damaged terminal caps.
DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE if cable or wires are loose,
kinked, etc.
Precautions for Handling Flammable Materials
Spilled fuel and oil, and trash, grease, debris, accumulated
coal dust, and other flammable materials may cause fires.
Prevent fires by inspecting and cleaning the machine
daily, and by removing spilled or accumulated flammable
materials immediately.
Do not store flammable fluid near open flames.
Do not burn or crush a pressurized container.
Do not store oily cloths. They are liable to catch fire.
Do not wind easy-to-absorb-oil material around high-
temperature parts such as a muffler or exhaust pipe.
