FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY (California owner’s emissions warranty is covered elsewhere) New Holland warrants that your new 1996 and later heavy-duty off-road diesel engine was designed, built, and equipped to conform to applicable U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations for a period of use of five years or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first.

The new model year, class of diesel engine, and emission application determination for your engine are identified on the emission control information label affixed to the top of your engine’s rocker arm cover. The warranty period begins on the date the new equipment is sold to the first retail purchaser.

Any emission control system parts which are proven defective during normal use will be repaired or replaced during the warranty period. The warranty repairs and service will be performed by any authorized New Holland dealer at the dealer’s place of business, with no charge for parts or labor (including diagnosis).

N

As the engine owner, you are responsible to perform all the required maintenance listed in your owner’s manual. New Holland will not deny an emission warranty claim solely because you have no record of maintenance; however, a claim may be denied if your failure to perform maintenance resulted in the failure of a warranted part. Receipts covering regular maintenance should be retained in the event of questions and these receipts should be passed on to each subsequent owner of the engine.

T IO

It is recommended replacement parts used for maintenance or repairs be New Holland Service Parts to maintain the quality originally designed into your emission certified engine. The use of non-New Holland parts does not invalidate the warranty on other components unless the use of such parts causes damage to warranted parts.

New Holland wishes to assure the emission control systems warranty is being properly administered. If you believe you have not received the service entitled to under this warranty, you should contact the nearest New Holland Branch Office for assistance.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS A careful operator is the best operator. Most accidents can be avoided by observing certain precautions. To help prevent accidents, read the following precautions before operating this equipment. Equipment should be operated only by those who are responsible and instructed to do so.

Carefully review the procedures given in this manual with all operators. It is important that all operators be familiar with and follow safety precautions.

13. Before starting the engine, be sure that all operating controls are in neutral and parking brake is engaged.

2. Drive slowly over rough ground and on slopes; keep alert for holes, ditches and other irregularities that may cause the skid steer to overturn.

14. Never operate the skid steer engine in a closed building without adequate ventilation.

T IO

N

1. Give complete and undivided attention to the job at hand so that complete control of the skid steer is maintained at all times.

C

15. Refuel the skid steer outdoors with the engine shut off. Replace the fuel cap securely. Use an approved fuel container. Do not smoke when handling fuel. Avoid spilling fuel.

D

U

3. Avoid steep hillside operation which could cause the skid steer to overturn.

4. Never transport a loaded bucket at full height.

Operate the skid steer with the load as low as possible until it becomes necessary to raise the boom to discharge the load into a truck, container, etc.

PR

O

16. After operating the engine, never touch the muffler, exhaust pipe, engine or radiator until they have had time to cool.

RE

5. Reduce speed when turning so there is no danger of the skid steer overturning.

R

6. Never drive up or down or back up a hill or incline with a raised boom or the skid steer could overturn.

FO

7. Always look to the sides before turning and to the rear before backing the skid steer.

8. Maintain proper transmission oil level to prevent loss of hydrostatic braking.

17. Dress appropriately - wear relatively tightfitting clothing when operating the skid steer.

Loose or torn clothing can catch in moving parts or controls.

18. Before servicing the skid steer or any of its attached equipment, be sure that the attachments are lowered to the ground or that the boom arms are supported by the boom lock pins.

T

19. Fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin, causing serious personal injury. Always protect the skin and eyes from escaping fluid under pressure.

Before disconnecting lines or fittings, be sure to release all pressure by operating the tractor control valves. Before applying pressure to the system, be sure all connections are tight and that hoses and connections are not damaged. If injured by escaping fluid, obtain medical assistance at once.

Serious infection or reaction can develop if medical treatment is not administered immediately.

N O

9. Do not allow passengers to ride on the skid steer at any time.

10. Do not allow children to operate the skid steer or ride on the skid steer at any time.

11. Do not allow anyone to operate the skid steer without proper instruction.

OSHA requires that all operators be instructed on the proper operation of the machine before they operate the unit.

12. Do not operate the skid steer in any position other than while in the operator’s seat with the seat belt securely fastened.

20. Do not work under overhangs, electric wires, or where there is danger of a slide.

0-6

21. Wear an approved safety hat when operating the machine and while in any work area.

30. Do not allow anyone near the skid steer while the engine is running and the skid steer is operational.

22. Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as earmuffs or earplugs if you are exposed to noise which you feel is uncomfortable.

31. When using the skid steer to crane objects, do not allow any person to ride on objects being craned.

23. When driving the skid steer on a road or highway, use warning lights or warning devices as may be required by local or state government regulations. Headlights, warning lights and SMV signs are available through your New Holland dealer.

32. Do not use the skid steer as a work platform for supporting materials.

24. Keep the skid steer clean. Do not allow trash, debris or other articles to accumulate in the cab, floor or foot control pedal area that may hinder safe machine operation.

34. On some attachments it may appear there are two saddle positions for the skid steer mounting plate. Always use the lower position to insure proper latching of the attachments.

T IO

N

33. Do not lift personnel or allow personnel to work while standing in the bucket or on other attachments. This is not a man-lift.

25. Never operate the skid steer with any of the shielding removed.

C

35. Do not weld on wheels. Welding on wheels may cause high stress and or wheel failure.

U

26. Never operate the skid steer without windows and/or screens in place.

D

36. Do not weld on wheels with a mounted tire.

Welding on wheels with a mounted tire may cause the tire to burst, causing serous injury or death.

O

ECOLOGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT Soil, air, and water are vital factors of agriculture and life in general. When legislation does not yet rule on the treatment of some of the substances which are required by advanced technology, common sense should govern the use and disposal of products of a chemical and petrochemical nature.

3. Modern oils contain additives. Do not burn contaminated fuels and or waste oils in ordinary heating systems.

4. Avoid spillage when draining off used engine coolant mixtures, engine, gearbox and hydraulic oils, brake fluids, etc. Do not mix drained brake fluids or fuels with lubricants.

Store them safely until they can be disposed of in a proper way to comply with local legislation and available resources.

C

T IO

5. Modern coolant mixtures, i.e. antifreeze and other additives, should be replaced every two years. They should not be allowed to get into the soil but should be collected and disposed of safely.

6. Do not open the air-conditioning system yourself. It contains gases which should not be released into the atmosphere. Your dealer or air conditioning specialist has a special extractor for this purpose and will have to recharge the system properly.

O

D

•

Become acquainted with and ensure that you understand the relative legislation applicable to your country.

Where no legislation exists, obtain information from suppliers of oils, filters, batteries, fuels, antifreeze, cleaning agents, etc., with regard to their effect on man and nature and how to safely store, use and dispose of these substances.

Agricultural consultants will, in many cases, be able to help you as well.
