OWNER SERVICE
The information in this section is written for operators
who possess basic mechanical skills. Should you need
help, your dealer has trained service technicians avail-
able. For your protection, read and follow all safety
information in this manual.
Regular preventive maintenance and immediate repair
of broken or worn parts will insure maximum efficiency
and long life.
NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. Never
place any part of the body underneath equipment
or between moveable parts even when the engine
has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak-down,
hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or
movement of control levers can cause equipment
to drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe
injury or death.
• Service work does not require going under-
neath.
• Read Operator's Manual for service instruc-
tions or have service performed by a qualified
dealer.
Before leaving operator's seat, lower lift arms
and put attachment on the ground. Engage brake,
stop engine, remove key, and remove seat belt.
Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper-
ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic-
ing equipment.
Never perform service or maintenance with
engine running.
Make sure shields and guards are properly
installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.
Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by
a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan-
grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and
valves are in good condition and not leaking before
starting power unit or using equipment. Check and
route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses
must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed,
pinched, or come into contact with any moving
parts. Operate moveable components through full
operational range to check clearances. Replace
any damaged hoses immediately.
Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to
modify or alter the equipment or any of its compo-
nents in any way.
Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for
location.)
Your dealer can supply original equipment
hydraulic accessories and repair parts. Substitute
parts may not meet original equipment specifica-
tions and may be dangerous.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Maintenance
