This section is a compilation of safety regulations which must be
followed when checking and servicing the machine.
Volvo CE disclaims any liability if tools, lifting gear or working met-
hods are used other than those described in these operating ins-
tructions.

Service position

Thorough maintenance and care (as well as the immediate rectifi-
cation of possibly occurring faults) are the best prerequisites for a
permanent availability of the machine and low repair requirements.
Before starting maintenance or repair work the machine must be
parked on level ground, the working attachments lowered to the
ground and the hydraulic system depressurized, i.e. shut down the
1012239
engine and actuate the levers for the working hydraulics several
times.
WARNING!
If work has to be carried out on the machine before it has
cooled down, care must be taken with regard to hot liquids
and hot machine parts - risk of burns.
– Pull the ignition key off in order to eliminate the risk of uninten-
ded starting of the machine.
– The stability of the machine is a prerequisite for safe assembly,
maintenance and repair work.
– When replacing spare parts make sure to use genuine Volvo
spare parts. Do not use any spare parts of lower quality.
– Cleanliness is decisive for the operating safety of the complete
machine. Always keep the maintenance location clean and ti-
dy.
