INTRODUCTION Safety rules Personal safety This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible death or injury. Throughout this manual you will find the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION followed by special in- structions.
INTRODUCTION Personal safety Carefully read this Manual before proceeding with main- tenance, repairs, refuelling or other machine operations. Repairs have to be carried out only by authorized and in- structed staff; specific precautions have to be taken when grinding, welding or when using mallets or heavy ham- mers.

INTRODUCTION Pay attention to rotating components and do not allow to anyone to approach these areas to avoid becoming entangled. Hands, clothing or tools getting caught in the fan blades or transmission belts, can cause amputations, violent hemorrages and generate conditions of grave danger. For this reason avoid touching or approaching all rotating or moving parts.

INTRODUCTION When hydraulic oil has been swallowed, avoid vomiting, but consult a doctor or go to a hospital. If an accident occurs, see a doctor familiar with this type of injury immediately. Any fluid penetrating the skin must be removed within few hours to avoid serious infections.
Page 16
INTRODUCTION Hoses and tubes Always replace hoses and tubes if the cone end or the end connections on the hose are damaged. When installing a new hose, loosely connect each end and make sure the hose takes up the correct position be- fore tightening the connections.
Page 17
INTRODUCTION Battery Batteries give off explosive gases. Never handle naked flames and unshielded light sources near batteries. (No smoking is addressed in next instruc- tion). To prevent any risk of explosion, observe the following instructions: • When disconnecting the battery cables, always discon- nect the negative (-) cable first.
Page 18
INTRODUCTION Flammable liquids When handling flammable liquids: • Do not smoke. • Keep away from unshielded light sources and naked flames. Fuels often have a low flash point and are readily ignited. Never attempt to extinguish burning liquids with water. Use: •...

INTRODUCTION Tires Before inflating the tires, always check the condition of rims and the outer condition of tires to find out the pres- ence of dents, cuts, tears of reinforcement plies or other faults. Before inflating a tire, make sure that there are no nearby persons, then position yourself at tread side.

INTRODUCTION Waste disposal Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environ- ment. Each country has its own Regulations on this subject. It is therefore advisable to prepare suitable containers to collect and store momentarily all solid and fluid materials that must not be scattered in the environment to avoid pollution.
INTRODUCTION Torque Bolt types NOTICE: Use tools appropriate for the work to be done. Makeshift tools and procedures can create safety haz- ards. For loosening and tightening nuts and bolts, use the correct tools. Avoid bodily injury caused by slipping wrenches.
Page 22
INTRODUCTION Bolt tightening order When tightening two or more bolts, tighten them alternately, as shown, to ensure even tightening. SMIL13CEX0149EA A Equally tighten upper and lower alternately B Tighten diagonally C Tighten from center and diagonally 48005326 27/04/2016...

INTRODUCTION Service recommendations for split flange 1. Be sure to clean and inspect sealing surfaces. Scratches/roughness cause leaks and seal wear. Unevenness causes seal extrusion. If defects cannot be polished out, replace the component. 2. Be sure to use only specified O-rings. Inspect O-rings for any damage.
Page 24
INTRODUCTION Nut and bolt lockings Lock plate NOTICE: Do not reuse lock plates. Do not try to bend the same point twice. Cotter pin NOTICE: Do not reuse cotter pins. Match the holes in the bolt and nut while tightening, not while loosening. Lock wire NOTICE: Apply wire to bolts in the bolt tightening direc- tion, not in the bolt-loosening direction.

INTRODUCTION Piping joint Pipe thread connection/Union joint tighten- ing torque specifications Union joint Metal sealing faces (4) and (5) of adaptor (1) and hose (2) fit together to seal pressure oil. Union joints are used to join small-diameter lines. 1. Do not over tighten union nut (3). Excessive force will be applied to metal sealing surfaces (4) and (5), possibly cracking adaptor (1).
Page 26
INTRODUCTION O-ring seal joint O-ring (6) seats against the end face of adaptor (7) to seal pressure oil. O-ring procedures: 1. Be sure to replace O-ring (6) with a new one when reconnecting. 2. Before tightening union nut (9), confirm that O-ring (6) is seated correctly in O-ring groove (8).

INTRODUCTION Low-pressure-hose clamp tightening torque Low-pressure-hose clamp tightening torque differs de- pending on the type of clamp. See below for correct tightening torque of each type of low-pressure-hose clamp. T-bolt type band clamp: 4.4 N·m (3.25 lb ft) Worm gear type band clamp: 5.9 - 6.9 N·m (4.4 - 5.1 lb ft) SMIL13CEX0159AA A - T-Bolt Type SMIL13CEX0160AA...

INTRODUCTION Connecting hose 1. When replacing hoses, be sure to use only genuine parts. Using hoses other than genuine hoses may cause oil leakage, hose rupture or separation of fitting, possibly resulting in a fire on the machine. 2. Do not install hoses kinked. Application of high oil pressure, vibration, or an impact to a kinked hose may result in oil leakage, hose rupture or separation of fit- ting.
Only use CNH Original Parts or CASE CONSTRUCTION Original Parts. Only genuine spare parts guarantee the same quality, duration, and safety as original parts, as they are the same parts that are assembled during standard production. Only CNH Original Parts or CASE CONSTRUCTION Original Parts can offer this guarantee.

INTRODUCTION PARTS REQUIRING REGULAR REPLACEMENT Out of critical hoses that are necessary to secure safety, we designate Very Important Parts (V.I.P) and recommend that they should be replaced regularly. INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT OF OILS AND GREASES In performing maintenance, it is necessary for the user to familiarize himself with how to handle the machine safely, cautions to be exercised and inspection/lubrication procedures.
INTRODUCTION Basic instructions - Precaution for disassembly and assembly Preparations for disassembly • Thoroughly wash the machine before bringing it into the shop. Bringing a dirty machine into the shop may cause machine components to be contaminated during disassembling/assembling, resulting in damage to machine com- ponents, as well as decreased efficiency in service work.
