SERVICING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS continued
Explosive release of fluids from the pressurized cooling system can cause serious burns. Shut off engine. Only remove engine radiator filler cap when cool enough to touch with bare hands. Slowly loosen cap to first stop to relieve pressure before removing completely.
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.
Do not change any pressure or relief setting unless authorized instruction has been obtained.
If you don't have an exhaust pipe extension, either work outside, or open the shop doors.
Use the proper tool for the job. Repair or replace worn or damaged tools including lifting equipment immediately.
Dispose of all fluids properly according to all applicable laws and regulations for the region. Do not pour fluids into the ground, stream, pond or lake.
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.
Before draining any fluids, know the proper way to dispose of them.
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. Never stand under an object supported with hydraulics. Always use safety stands or a locking device. Before performing work on the grapple or boom, ensure they are firmly supported.
