Page 13: Hydraulic, Maintenance
SAFETY HyDRAuLIC SAFETy • Make sure that all components in the hydraulic system are kept in good condition and are clean. • Replace any worn, cut, abraded, flattened, or crimped hoses or metal lines immediately. • Relieve pressure before working on hydraulic systems. • Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the hydraulic fittings or hoses by using tape, clamps, or cements. The hydraulic system operates under extremely high pressure. Such repairs will fail suddenly and create a hazardous and unsafe condition. • Wear proper hand and eye protection when searching for a high-pressure hydraulic leak. Use a piece of wood or cardboard as a backstop instead of hands to isolate and identify a leak. • If injured by a concentrated high-pressure stream of hydraulic fluid, seek medical attention immediately.
Page 14: Tire Safety, Before Operation
SAFETY TIRE SAFETy • Failure to follow proper procedures when mounting a tire on a rim can produce an explosion which may result in a serious injury or death. • Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have proper equipment and experience to do job. • Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel should be called to service and/or mount tires. • Always order and install tires and wheels with appropriate type and load capacity to meet or exceed anticipated weight to be placed on the equipment. bEFORE OPERATION: • Carefully study and understand this manual. • Do not wear loose-fitting clothing which may catch in moving parts. • Always wear protective clothing and substantial shoes. • It is recommended that suitable hearing and eye protection be worn. • Operator may come in contact with certain materials which may require specific safety equipment relative to handling of such materials.
Page 15: During Operation
SAFETY DuRING OPERATION • Beware of bystanders, PARTICULARLY CHILDREN! Always look around to make sure that it is safe to start the engine or move the unit. This is particularly important with higher noise levels and quiet cabs, as you may not hear people shouting. • NO PASSENGERS ALLOWED- Do not carry passengers anywhere on or in the equipment. • Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts. • Do not clean, lubricate, or adjust your equipment while it is moving. • When halting operation, even periodically, set the vehicle’s brakes, disengage hydraulic pumps, shut off engine, and remove ignition key. • Be especially observant of operating area and terrain. Watch for holes, rocks, or other hidden hazards. Always inspect area prior to operation.
