SAFETY
INFLATING TIRES
Always bear in mind that tires can burst while being inflated, causing
serious accidents. Before servicing the tires, observe the following
precautions:
•
Before inflating tires, always check the wheel rims, tire walls
and tread for cuts, broken cords, or other damage.
•
Have a tire expert perform checks and tire maintenance.
•
When inflating tires, use a protective cage, and a compressed air
gun with extension hose and pressure gauge.
•
Make sure there is nobody in the vicinity before starting to
inflate a tire. Stand at the tread side of the tire to inflate it.
ACCUMULATOR
This machine is equipped with an accumulator charged with
high-pressure nitrogen gas. Before servicing the accumulator,
observe the following precautions:
•
Do not dissemble the accumulator.
•
Do not expose the accumulator to high heat or an open flame.
•
Do not weld on the accumulator.
•
Do not drill or cut the accumulator.
•
Do not strike or crush the accumulator.
•
When replacing or disposing of the accumulator, always release
the nitrogen pressure from the chamber.
CRITICAL PARTS
Periodically some parts must be replaced due to safety purpose. Even if
these parts seem to be in good condition and operating
properly they may fail at some point causing possible injury to the
operator or pedestrian. Listed are some of the systems
containing these components that may fail under extended use:
•
Seat belts.
•
Fuel supply and delivery hoses.
•
Hydraulic system: main delivery hoses and tubing.
•
Hydraulic hoses: all the hoses that feed and return the hydraulic
fluid to and from the work equipment.
