MAINTENANCE
REPLACE BUCKET TEETH
Replace the teeth before the wear reaches the adapter.
It is dangerous if the work equipment moves by mis-
take when the teeth are being replaced. Set the work
equipment in a stable condition, then stop the engine
and apply the locks securely to the levers.
If the locking pin is knocked out with excessive force,
there is a hazard that the pin may fly out. Check that
there is no one in the surrounding area.
Pieces will often fly during the replacement operation,
so always wear safety glasses, gloves, and other pro-
tective equipment.
