NOTE: The use of the signal words DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION with the safety messages. The
signal word for each message will use the structure that follows:
DANGER: Danger
Shows data on a possible hazard that if you do not prevent death or injury will occur.
WARNING: Warning
Shows data on a possible hazard that if you do not prevent death or injury will occur,
these will include hazards that occur when guards are not in position.
CAUTION: Caution
Shows data on a possible hazard that if you do not prevent can cause small or moderate
injury or component or property damage.
NOTE: This shows more data that can help.
1.1.2 Safety Instructions
YOU are responsible for the SAFE operation and maintenance of your machine.
YOU must make sure that each person who operates or does work on the machine understands all the
SAFETY data in this manual.
YOU are the key to safety. Good safety procedures prevent accidents to you and each person near you.
Make these procedures a set part of your safety sequence.
Make sure that EVERYONE who operates, does maintenance or works near to the machine obeys the
safety precautions.
Follow the safety sequence to prevent the risk of injury or death:
• Owners must complete training with all operators before they operate the machine. This training must
be done a minimum of each year
• The operator must read, understand and obey all safety and operation instructions in the manual
• A person who did not read and understand all safety and operation instructions must not operate the
machine
• Do not change the equipment. Adjustments not approved by the manufacturer can change the function
of the machine and cause damage or personal injury
• Only use approved replacement parts and make sure that only approved technicians do the repair
procedures.
1.1.3 General Safety
• Read and understand the manual and all safety decals, before you operate the machine
• Follow all safety regulations, in this manual and instructions or warnings shown on the machine

remove the radiator cap, electrical plugs, grease fittings or pressure taps.
• Do not open hydraulic connections while the machine operates. Release the hydraulic pressure before
you do maintenance or repairs.
• Tighten all connections before you pressurize the system.
• Examine for leaks with a piece of wood or cardboard to prevent injury to the skin.
• High pressure hydraulic fluid or diesel fuel can cut the skin, burn or cause injury to the eyes.
• If hydraulic fluid or diesel fuel causes injury to personnel, get medical aid quickly.
1.3.15 Do not use heat near pressurized fluid lines
• Do not cause heat by welding, soldering or flames near pressurized fluid lines or other flammable
materials.
• Pressurized lines can easily leak when heat moves from areas where you do work.
• Flammable gases can occur with the use of heat near pressurized fluid lines. If accidental ignition
occurs, it can cause dangerous burns to the skin.
1.3.16 Welding or the use of heat on parts
Welding and the use of heat on parts can make dangerous, poisonous and or flammable fumes. Follow

1.4 Safety Devices
1.4.1 Tailgate Safeguard
The tailgate safeguard is a hydraulic shut-o valve that safely holds an opened tailgate in position and
makes sure that it does not lower.
The shut-o valve is located on the maintenance platform.
Always set the shut-o valve in the 'shut-o' position when you do maintenance with the tailgate open.
If the tailgate is open for a long period of time hold the tailgate with an applicable tool. This will stop
hydraulic pressure reduction and movement of the tailgate.
1.4.2 Set the Tailgate Safeguard
Procedure
1. Open the tailgate.
2. Turn the hydraulic tailgate valve to the shut-
o position.
