When removing the main valve guard, always stop the
engine and lock the tilt frame. If the harvester head
suddenly stands up, serious injury may result.
If it is necessary to work on the hydraulic system while it
is under pressure (for example, searching for leaks etc),
always wear gloves and full protective clothing and search
for leaks using a piece of cardboard.
Always wear approved eye protection while checking for
hydraulic leaks. Failure to do so could result in injury or
death.
When under pressure, hydraulic oil can easily penetrate
the skin. In this instance, fluid must be removed
immediately by a physician.
Always reduce the hydraulic system pressure to zero
before attempting to work on any hydraulic component.
Hydraulic oil becomes hot during operation; do not allow
hydraulic oil to come into contact with the skin, as it may
cause severe burns.
Take care when handling valves: the electrical controls
and solenoids are not intended for carrying.
Check the hydraulic oil regularly and add oil when required.
Improper disposal of fluids can cause irreversible harm
to the environment. Learn and follow the proper way to
dispose of waste.
Following maintenance, replace all guards and safety
devices securely before attempting a restart.
Remove Paint before Welding or Heating
Avoid potentially-toxic fumes and dust.
Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is heated
by welding, soldering, or when using a torch.
Remove paint before heating:
•
Remove paint a minimum of 100 mm (4") from the area
affected by heating. If paint cannot be removed, use an
approved respirator before heating and/or welding.
•
If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust;
wear an approved respirator.
•
If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove the stripper
with soap and water before welding. Remove solvent or
paint stripper containers and other flammable material
from the area. Allow fumes to disperse at least 15
minutes before welding or heating.
Do not use a chlorinated solvent in areas where welding
will take place.
