7.1 Maintenance
WARNING
Personal injury and machine damage hazard
A poorly maintained machine can malfunction, causing injuries or permanent
damage to the machine.
► Keep the machine in safe operating condition by performing periodic
maintenance and making repairs as needed.
► Do not make unauthorized modifications to the machines. This includes
structural, hydraulic, engine, and electrical systems.
► Before returning the machine to service, ensure all covers and parts are
installed, check for any fluid leaks, check all fluid levels, operate all con-
trols, and test the loader interlock system functionality.
Unless otherwise specified, the operator can perform the maintenance items
listed in this manual. A qualified technician should perform other mainte-
nance and repairs. Repairs can be hazardous if not performed correctly.
Preparing for maintenance work
• Remove all attachments from the machine when service procedures re-
quire raising the lift arm. Always secure the lift arm with the lift arm sup-
port device.
• Prior to performing maintenance work on the machine, make sure that all
interlock devices are engaged to prevent unintended movement on the
machine.
Performing maintenance
• If any operating fluid, such as fuel or hydraulic oil, is spraying or leaking,
avoid skin contact. High-pressure fuel can penetrate your skin and result
in serious injury. If you are exposed to high-pressure fluid spray, seek
prompt medical treatment.
• Disassembling or repairing the fuel system must be done by profession-
als such as the authorized YANMAR distributor or dealer.
• The engine block and exhaust system become very hot during operation
and require cool-down time after the machine is shut off. Avoid contact
with hot parts.
• After cleaning, examine all fuel, lubricant and hydraulic oil lines for leaks,
chafe marks, and damage.
• Do not use the attachment or work equipment as lifting platforms for per-
sons.
