SAFETY Servicing Safety Reminders
ALWAYS wait for the engine to cool before attempting to relieve pressure and remove the radiator cap. Failure to heed this warning could result in severe burns.
 ALWAYS be aware of and avoid pinch-point areas on the machine, such as wheels-to-frame, cylinders-to-frame, boom- and attachment-tool-toframe.
 DO NOT loosen or disconnect any hydraulic lines, hoses or fittings without first relieving hydraulic circuit pressure. Also, be careful not to touch any hydraulic components that have been in recent operation because they can be extremely hot and can burn you!
 NEVER attempt to by-pass the keyswitch to start the engine. ONLY use the jump-starting procedure detailed in the Service and Storage chapter.  NEVER use your hands to search for hydraulic fluid leaks. Instead use a piece of paper or cardboard. Escaping fluid under pressure can be invisible and can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. If any fluid is injected into your skin, see a doctor at once. Injected fluid MUST be surgically removed by a doctor familiar with this type of injury or gangrene may result.
 Avoid lubrication or mechanical adjustments with the machine in motion or the engine running. If the engine must be running to make certain adjustments, place the equipment in a safe position, place the transmission in neutral, apply the parking brake, securely block the wheels and use extreme caution.
 ALWAYS wear safety glasses with side shields when striking metal against metal. In addition, it is also recommended that a softer (chip-resistant) material be used to cushion the blow. Failure to heed could lead to serious injury to the eyes or other parts of the body.
 To ensure continued safe operation, replace damaged or worn-out parts with genuine Mustang service parts before using this equipment.
Modifications, Nameplates, Markings and Capacities
 DO NOT refill the fuel tank when the engine is hot. Allow engine to cool down before refilling to prevent hot engine parts from igniting the fuel if it should spill or splash.
 Modifications and additions that affect capacity or safe operation must never be performed without the manufacturer’s prior written approval. Where such authorization is granted, any applicable markings are to be changed accordingly.
 DO NOT smoke while filling the fuel tank, working on the fuel or hydraulic systems, or working around the battery.
 All attachment tools MUST be marked to identify the attachment tool and the total capacity with the attachment tool at maximum elevation with the load laterally centered.
 DO NOT fill the fuel tank completely. Allow room for expansion. Maintain control of the fuel filler nozzle when filling the tank. Use the correct fuel grade for the operating season.
 ALWAYS be sure all nameplates, warnings and instruction markings are in place and legible. Local government regulations may require specific decals, which are the responsibility of the owner to provide.
 NEVER use fuel for cleaning purposes.  DO NOT remove the radiator cap after the engine has reached operating temperature or if it is overheated. At operating temperatures, the engine coolant will be extremely hot and under pressure.
