1.12 General Maintenance Information
Before you do maintenance, lubricate, do servicing, clean,
or make adjustments:
•
Park the machine on a solid, level surface.
•
Make sure that all the controls are in the neutral posi-
tion and apply the parking break.
•
Make sure that the machine and the attachments are
lowered to the ground.
•
Stop the engine and take the key with you.
•
Look and Listen! Make sure that all parts have
stopped moving.
•
Put chocks in front of and behind the wheels of the
machine before you do work on or below the ma-
chine.
Stay near the machine when the tractor is in operation.
Know the dimensions and weights of parts when you do the servicing. Do not stand below or near a part while it is
moved with a hoist or other lift equipment.
After you do work on the machine, remove all tools from the machine.
Make sure that electrical connector are clean before you connect them.
Do a check for loose, broken, missing, or damaged parts. Make sure that the machine is in good repair. Make
sure that all guards and shields are in position.
Always lift the machine, stop the tractor engine, apply the parking brake, move to the park position (or neutral)
remove the key and install the cylinder channel stops before you do work around the machine.
Do not go below the machine. If you must go below the machine, make sure that the machine is blocked and the
cylinder lockup channels are in position.
Do not do the servicing, examine or adjust chains or belts
while the engine is in operation.
Do not operate the machine with the drive shaft shields
open or removed. Entanglement in drive shafts that rotate
can cause injury or death.
Stay clear of components that rotate
Make sure that guards that rotate can rotate freely.
A loose yoke can come off a shaft and result in injury to
persons or damage to the machine.
When you install a quick disconnect yoke, the spring activated locking pins must move freely and be in the groove
on the shaft. Pull on the driveline to make sure that the quick disconnect yoke cannot be pulled off of the shaft.
Remove all spilled oil, antifreeze or fuel immediately from the steps, platforms and other access areas.
Keep all access areas clean of unwanted materials.
