Safety
Parking
Park on a level surface. If parking on a grade is
necessary, chock machine’s tires.
Move transmission control lever to park.
Before stopping engine, move throttle control lever to
low idle. Run engine at low idle speed for five minutes to
allow turbocharger to cool.
Stop engine.
Turn engine start switch to off and remove key.
Turn battery disconnect switch to off.
Operator Station
Any modifications to inside of operator station should not
project into operator space. The addition of a radio, fire
extinguisher and other equipment must be installed so
defined operator space is maintained.
Any item brought into cab should not project into defined
operator space. A lunchbox or other loose items must be
secured. Objects must not pose an impact hazard in
rough terrain or in the event of a rollover.
Crushing and Cutting Prevention
Ensure proper support when working under machine.
Do not depend on hydraulic cylinders to hold machine
up. An implement can fall if a control lever is moved or if
a hydraulic line breaks.
Never jump across starter solenoid terminals to start
machine, unexpected movement could result.
Never attempt adjustments while machine is moving or
engine is running.
Whenever there are attachment control linkages,
clearance in linkage area changes with movement of
attachment.
Stay clear of all rotating and moving parts.
Keep objects away from moving fan blades. Fan blades
will throw and can cut objects.
Always wear gloves when handling wire cable and never
use a kinked or frayed wire cable.
When striking a retainer pin may cause personal injury.
Make sure there are no personnel in area. To avoid
injury to eyes, wear protective glasses when striking
retainer pins.
Chips or other debris may fly off objects when struck.
Make sure no personnel will be injured by flying debris
before striking.
Hydraulic Safety
Machine uses high-pressure fluids for operation. If
injured by escaping fluid, seek medical attention
immediately.
• Remove hydraulic pressure by operating control
lever(s) to all positions with engine shut off.
• Make sure all components in hydraulic system are
clean and in good condition and connections are
tightened properly.
• Immediately replace any worn, cut, flattened or
crimped hoses and/or steel lines.
• Wear proper hand and eye protection when
searching for a high-pressure leak.
• Use a piece of wood or cardboard to isolate leaks.
• Never use fingers or hands to search for leaks.
• Relieve system before loosening any hydraulic lines
or connections. Use extra care when working on
hydraulic circuits containing accumulators. High
pressure can exist long after machine is shut down.
• Loosen connections slowly, keeping hands and
fingers clear of loosened fittings.
• Tighten connections securely before applying
pressure.
• Escaping fluid under high pressure can be almost
invisible but can penetrate skin.
• Consult a doctor immediately if an escaping fluid
injury is sustained. Serious reactions can result.
• Do not attempt any repairs to hydraulic lines, fittings
or hoses by using tape, clamps or cements. Such
repairs fail suddenly and create hazardous
conditions.
