Loading and unloading the machine

WARNING
・Close the fuel valve when transporting. If fuel is spilled it may cause fire.
・Do not tilt the machine. The fuel may leak.
・Use a vehicle/trailer of appropriate size to transport the machine.
・Park on a flat surface for loading and unloading.
・Always walk behind the machine when loading and unloading. Do not stand on the machine
when loading and unloading.
・Use a ramp designed for the job. Be sure it is wide and sturdy enough and that the machine
stays in the middle of the ramp. Always use the lowest speed to load and unload. Do not turn or
change speeds for safety.
・Make sure to engage the parking brake and secure the machine with strong straps while
transporting.
・Never strap the cables or any plastic parts. Instead, use steady parts on frame to secure the
machine.
1.5 Inspection, Maintenance
Periodic inspection is necessary for keeping the optimal quality and performance of the machine.
Please perform an inspection before every operation and ask your retailer for an annual inspection.
Orec America will bear no responsibilities for any accidents or problems caused by
neglecting any inspections.
WARNING
To avoid injury, accident, and damage to the machine, be sure to follow all instructions
below.
・To keep the machine safe and in good condition, perform the daily and annual inspections, and
the recommended maintenance.
・When you inspect, adjust or maintain the machine, make sure all parts have cooled down. Wear
appropriate protective gear and use appropriate tools. Work on a flat and open area and keep
the machine balanced to prevent machine tipping or falling off.
・Make sure all parts are at the correct position and are securely tightened after an inspection,
maintenance or replacing. When replacing the plow blade or driving wheel and tracks, replace
mounting bolt at the same time for safety.
・Do not operate the machine if it feels abnormal and have it inspected.
・Be sure to check that all the covers are refitted correctly in their original positions after being
removed.
・Do not modify the machine or attach anything unless OREC authorized.
・When fuel lines become old, they can split and dangerous fuel leaks can occur. Change parts if
they split or every 3 years regardless of damage as a safety precaution. At this time, also
change the fastening bands for the new parts.
CAUTION
To avoid machine damage, keep these instructions.
・When you wash the machine, do not get the engine or the battery wet. Do not power wash
warning labels.
・Inspect and adjust the clutch, throttle and gear shift lever carefully.
・To avoid burns and fire, cover the machine only after making sure that the engine has cooled
down completely.
・When storing, set the blade height the highest position to protect the piston rod of the hydraulic
actuator from rust and dust that may cause damage on the oil seal.
