Page 14: Stay Clear Of Moving Parts
Safety—General Precautions Stay Clear of Moving Parts Entanglements in moving parts can cause serious injury. Stop engine before examining, adjusting or maintaining any part of machine with moving parts. Keep guards and shields in place. Replace any guard or shield that has been removed for access as soon as service or repair is complete.
Page 15: Avoid High-Pressure Oils
Safety—General Precautions Avoid High-Pressure Oils This machine uses a high-pressure hydraulic system. Escaping oil under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Never search for leaks with your hands. Protect hands. Use a piece of cardboard to find location of escaping oil. Stop engine and relieve pressure before disconnecting lines or working on hydraulic system.
Page 16: Prevent Fires
Safety—General Precautions Prevent Fires Handle Fuel Safely: Store flammable fluids away from fire hazards. Never refuel machine while smoking or when near sparks or flame. Clean Machine Regularly: Keep trash, debris, grease and oil from accumulating in engine compartment, around fuel lines, hydraulic lines and electrical wiring.
Page 17: Handle Chemical Products Safely
Safety—General Precautions Handle Chemical Products Safely Exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause serious injury. Under certain conditions, lubricants, coolants, paints and adhesives used with this machine may be hazardous. If uncertain about safe handling or use of these chemical products, contact your authorized dealer for a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
Page 18: Safety-Operating Precautions
Safety—Operating Precautions Use Steps and Handholds Correctly Prevent falls by facing the machine when you get on and off. Maintain 3-point contact with steps and handrails. Never use machine controls as handholds. Use extra care when mud, snow, or moisture present slippery conditions.
Page 19: Prevent Unintended Machine Movement
Safety—Operating Precautions Prevent Unintended Machine Movement Be careful not to accidentally actuate control levers when co-workers are present. Pull pilot control shut-off lever to locked position during work interruptions. Pull pilot control shut-off lever to locked position and stop engine before allowing anyone to approach machine.
Page 20: Avoid Work Site Hazards
Safety—Operating Precautions Avoid Work Site Hazards Avoid contact with gas lines, buried cables and water lines. Call utility line location services to identify all underground utilities before you dig. Prepare work site properly. Avoid operating near structures or objects that could fall onto the machine. Clear away debris that could move unexpectedly if run over.
Page 21: Avoid Backover Accidents
Safety—Operating Precautions Avoid Backover Accidents Before moving machine, be sure all persons are clear of both travel and swing paths. Turn around and look directly for best visibility. Use mirrors to assist in checking all around machine. Keep windows and mirrors clean, adjusted, and in good repair.
Page 22: Use Special Care When Lifting Objects
Safety—Operating Precautions Use Special Care When Lifting Objects Never use this machine to lift people. Never lift a load above another person. Keep bystanders clear of all areas where a load might fall if it breaks free. Do not leave the seat when there is a raised load. Do not exceed lift capacity limits posted on machine and in this manual.
Page 23: Keep The Operator Protective Structure (Ops) In Place
Safety—Operating Precautions Keep the Operator Protective Structure (OPS) in Place It is important to keep the operator protective structure (OPS) in place (doors, screens, windows, windshield, etc.) to minimize hazards from whipping or intruding objects. To maintain OPS protection, replace damaged parts immediately.
Page 24: Safety-Maintenance Precautions
Safety—Maintenance Precautions Park and Prepare for Service Safely Warn others of service work. Always park and prepare your machine for service or repair properly. • Park machine on a level surface and lower equipment and attachments to the ground. • Place pilot control shut-off lever in “lock” position. Stop engine and remove key.
Page 25: Remove Paint Before Welding Or Heating
Safety—Maintenance Precautions Remove Paint Before Welding or Heating Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust. Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is heated by welding, soldering, or using a torch. Remove paint before heating: • Remove paint a minimum of 100 mm (4 in.) from area to be affected by heating.
Page 26: Make Welding Repairs Safely
Safety—Maintenance Precautions Make Welding Repairs Safely IMPORTANT: Disable electrical power before welding. Turn off main battery switch or disconnect positive battery cable. Separate harness connectors to engine and vehicle microprocessors. Avoid welding or heating near pressurized fluid lines. Flammable spray may result and cause severe burns if pressurized lines fail as a result of heating.
