CAUTION
Hydraulic fluid and components must be kept
clean. Thoroughly clean exterior of any hydraulic
component before disconnecting hoses or fittings.
Perform all maintenance and repairs in a clean
environment. Do not use cloth or paper towels to
clean components due to possible contamination with
lint or other fiber. Failure to follow these guidelines
will result in premature failure of hydraulic system
components.
WARNING
This section is one section of a complete service
manual. Before starting any procedure, read all
warnings and instructions that are located in the
Service Guidelines chapter.
WARNING
Current Taylor-Dunn® brakes are asbestos free.
However, there is the possibility that the original
brakes were replaced with aftermarket parts
containing asbestos. Since this possibility exists,
all brake parts should be handled as if they contain
asbestos. Refer to Appendix C for recommended
handling precautions.
WARNING
• Only use DOT 3 brake fluid from a new sealed
container.
• DOT 3 brake fluid is corrosive and will damage
paint finishes.
• Dispose of brake fluid in accordance with local
state and federal regulations.
• Read and follow all warnings on the brake fluid
container.
