grease ttings, or pressure taps while engine is hot.
Add coolant to the radiator and perform other services
only when the engine is stopped and fully cooled.
Hydraulic Systems PrecautionsHydraulic Systems Precautions
• Ensure all components are in good working condition.
Replace any worn, cut, abraded, attened or crimped
hoses and metal lines.
• DO NOT attempt makeshift repairs using tape, clamps
or cements. The hydraulic system operates under
extremely high pressure and such repairs could
cause serious injury.
• Wear proper hand and eye protection when checking
for a high pressure leak. Use a piece of wood or
cardboard as a back stop to isolate and identify leaks.
Hydraulic oil under pressure can
cause serious personal injury. Check for oil leaks
with a piece of cardboard. DO NOT expose hands to
possible high-pressure oil. Turn off engine before
attempting to tighten oil lines and ttings.
