Safety Work in a ventilated area. If it is necessary to run an engine in an enclosed area, use an exhaust pipe extension to remove toxic exhaust fumes.
SERVICING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS continued
If you don't have an exhaust pipe extension, either work outside, or open the shop doors.
Keep your hands, feet, head, and loose clothing away from power driven parts. Tie long hair behind your head. Remove rings and other jewellery to prevent electrical shorts and entanglement in moving parts.
Dispose of all fluids properly according to all applicable laws and regulations for the region.
Always be aware of machine pinch points that could cause injury. Never place body parts within the range of motion of the working parts of the machine.
Do not pour fluids into the ground, stream, pond or lake. Before draining any fluids, know the proper way to dispose of them.
Never stand under an object supported with hydraulics. Always use safety stands or a locking device. Never leave the cab partially tilted. It should always be either fully forward or fully closed. Before performing work on the grapple or boom, ensure they are firmly supported.
If the engine is running inside a building, ensure that sufficient ventilation is available to prevent a buildup of toxic exhaust fumes. Run the engine only when it is necessary for testing or adjustments.
