General Safety Precautions
Signal Words
The words DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION are
used with the safety alert symbol. Learn to
recognize the safety alerts, and follow the
recommended precautions and safe practices.
Three words are used in conjunction with the safety-alert symbol:
DANGER
WARNING
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, will cause DEATH OR VERY SERIOUS INJURY.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, could cause DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, may result in MINOR or MODERATE INJURY.
Replace any DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION or
instructional decal that is not readable or is missing.
The location and part number of these
decals is identified later in this section of the
manual.
The words Important and Note are not related to
personal safety but are used to give
additional information and tips for
operating or servicing this equipment.
IMPORTANT: Identifies special instructions or
procedures which, if not strictly
observed could result in damage to, or
destruction of the machine, process or
its surroundings.
NOTE: Indicates points of particular interest for more efficient and convenient repair or operation.
A CAREFUL OPERATOR IS THE BEST INSURANCE AGAINST AN ACCIDENT !

xWings may fall rapidly
causing injury.
xAlways stay clear of wings
when being lowered, raised
or in a elevated state.
xAlways use lockup device
provided when raised.
xEnsure cylinder is completely
filled with hydraulic fluid to
avoid unexpected
movement.
General Safety Precautions
•Do not search for high pressure hydraulic
leaks without hand and face protection. A
tiny, almost invisible leak can penetrate skin,
thereby requiring immediate medical
attention.
• Use cardboard or wood to detect leaks – never
your hands.
• Double check that all is clear before
operating hydraulics.
•Never remove hydraulic hoses or ends
with machine elevated. Relieve hydraulic
pressure before disconnecting hydraulic
hoses or ends.
• Maintain proper hydraulic fluid levels.
• Keep all connectors clean for positive connections.
• Ensure all fittings and hoses are in good condition.
• Do not stand under wings.

pins. At this time you may hang (#21) the depth control rod on the cylinder rod pin
using the same cotter pin.
4. Face ports outward, pin cylinder butts with 1"x1-3/4" pins. Fasten with 1/4"cotter
pins.
5. The depth control rod (#21) should now be hanging off the cylinder rod pin. Slide
the adjustable stop (#20) onto the depth rod (#21). For now, leave it halfway
up the rod. DO NOT LEAVE THE ADJUSTABLE STOP (#20) MORE THAN HALF WAY
TOWARD THE MAST (#1). OTHERWISE, IT CAN BREAK WHEN THE MACHINE IS
RAISED.
