SAFETY
Think Safety First (Cont.)
Avoid modifications...
Never alter or modify any part unless it is a factory approved procedure.
Avoid unsafe operation...
Always test the safety interlock system after making adjustments or repairs on the machine. Refer to the Electrical
section in this manual for more information.
Avoid electrical shock...
Never touch electrical wires or components while the engine is running. They can be sources of shock. De-
energize the system if you are having to do repairs. If testing electrical components ensure you are working in a
dry environment.
Hydraulic System...
Release all pressure in the hydraulic system before performing any work on the system. Keep your body and
hands away from pin-hole leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Do not use your hands
to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin and
cause serious injury. Seek medical attention right away if hydraulic fluid gets in the skin.
Personal Protective Equipment...
Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for protecting yourself from potential hazards in the
environment in which you will work. Each process outlined in this manual may need different PPE to protect the
service person. Use the proper PPE for the task at hand.
Tools...
All tools should be in proper working order. Do not use tools that are broken or in disrepair. Use the proper tool for
the proper application.
Lifts, Hoists, and Jacks...
All lifts, hoists, and jacks should be used in accordance with the manufacturer information. Inspect lifts, hoists,
and jacks prior to use. Do not over load lifts, hoists, and jacks. Do not work under a suspended load. Ensure
chock blocks are used on equipment that can move. Use lifts or jacks and jack stands that are rated to support
the total weight of the machine and any attachments. Do not rely on jacks to support the machine. If you are
unsure of the operation of any lifts, hoists, and jacks do not use.
