and debris.
Do not store oily rags; they can ignite and burn
spontaneously.
Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy.
Keep emergency numbers for doctors,
ambulanceservice, hospital, andfiredepartment
nearyourtelephone.
USE CARE AROUND HIGH-PRESSURE
FLUID LINES
Escapingfluid under pressure can penetratethe
skin causing serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before
disconnecting hydraulic or other lines.
lighten all line connections before applying
pressure.
Check for leaks with a piece ofcardboard.
Protect hands and body from high-pressure
fluids.
Ifan accident occurs, see a doctor immediately.
Anyfluid injected intothe skin must be surgically
removed within a few hours or gangrene may
result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type
of injury
should reference a knowledgeable medical
source.
AVOID HEATING NEAR PRESSURIZED
FLUID LINES
Flammable spray can be generated by heating
near pressurized fluid lines, resulting in severe
burns to yourself and bystanders.
Do not heat by welding, soldering, or using a
torch near pressurized fluid lines.
Pressurized lines can be accidentally cut or
damagedwhen heatgoesbeyondtheimmediate
flame area.
USE CARE IN HANDLING AND
SERVICING BATTERIES
Prevent Battery Explosions
Keep sparks, lighted matches, and open flame
awayfrom thetop ofthe battery. Battery gas can
explode.
Never check battery charge by placing a metal
object across the posts. Use a voltmeter or
hydrometer.
Do not charge a frozen battery; it may explode.
Warm the battery to 60° F (16° C).
A
WARNING: IF ANY SERVICING OR
ADJUSTMENTS REQUIRE THE BATTERY TO
BE DISCONNECTED, OR WELDING IS
REQUIRED ON THE SKID-STEER LOADER,
DISCONNECT
THE(·) NEGATIVE GROUND
CABLE.
FAILURE TO DISCONNECT THE
BATTERY
MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE
