Prevent Fires

Handle Fluids Safely: All fuels, most lubricants, and
some coolant mixtures are flammable. Store flammable
fluids away from fire hazards. Never refuel machine while
smoking or when near sparks or flame.
Clean Machine Regularly: Keep flammable debris
(trash, leaves, twigs, straw, and other debris) and grease
and oil from accumulating in engine compartment and
away from fuel lines, hydraulic lines, exhaust components,
and electrical wiring. Never store oily rags or flammable
materials inside a machine compartment.
Maintain Hoses, Tubes, and Wiring: Replace hoses
and tubes immediately if they begin to leak. Clean up
any oil spills. Examine electrical wiring and connectors
frequently for damage.
Keep a Fire Extinguisher Available: Always keep a
multipurpose fire extinguisher on or near the machine.
Know how to use an extinguisher properly.
Be Aware of the Operating Environment: Airborne
debris may contain sparks or embers. Do not operate
near any flame.
Lithium-Ion Battery Safety:
• To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not attempt to
open, disassemble, or service the display unit. Servicing
of this unit is to be performed only by an authorized
dealer. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the
display unit. Accessing the inside of the equipment will
void the warranty.
• Do not remove or handle a damaged or leaking
Lithium-Ion Polymer battery.
• Do not crush or puncture battery, short battery contacts,
or dispose of battery in fire or water.
• Do not expose to temperatures above 60°C (140°F).

Prevent Battery Explosions

Keep sparks, lighted matches, and open flame away from
the top of battery. Battery gas can explode.
Never check battery charge by placing a metal object
across the posts. Use a voltmeter or hydrometer.
Do not charge a frozen battery; it may explode. Warm
battery to 16°C (60°F).
Keep battery electrolyte levels properly maintained.
