THERMAL RISK

5.2.1

JETS OF HOT FLUIDS

After switching the engine off, its mass remains very hot for a certain amount of
time depending on the room temperature. To avoid the discharge of jets of hot
fluid and vapour, do not remove the radiator plug until the engine is cold. To
open, unscrew the plug until it stops and lift it.
5.2.2

FLUIDS AND HOT SURFACES

The engine oil, the reducers and the hydraulic system heat up when using the machine. Before touching the
machine and the parts of its hydraulic circuit, wait for the ambient temperature to be reached.
5.3

PRESSURISED LIQUIDS

Splashes of fuel or hydraulic oil can penetrate the skin or enter eyes
with serious consequences.
Release the pressure of the circuits before disconnecting the pipes.
Before starting up the engine, make sure that all connections
are closed correctly.
Look for any liquid leakages using a piece of cardboard as a
shield.
Protect eyes using a facial mask or glasses.
In case of injury caused by oil or fuel, immediately seek medical help to
remove all traces and prevent infection.
