REMOVE PAINT BEFORE WELDING OR HEAT-
ING
Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust.
Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is
heated by welding, soldering or using a torch. Do all
work outside or in a well-ventilated area. Dispose of
paint and solvent properly.
Remove paint before welding or heating.
• If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust.
Wear an approved respirator.
• Remove solvent or paint stripper containers and
other flammable material from area. Allow fumes to
disperse at least 15 minutes before welding or
heating.
CHECK HOSES FOR DAMAGE
The hydraulic hose fail due to physical damage,
kinks, time and weather exposure. Periodically
check the hoses. Replace damaged hoses.
Prevent high pressure fluids:
Pressurized fluids can escape and penetrate the
skin causing serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before
disconnecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all
connections before applying pressure.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect
hands and body from high pressure fluids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any
fluid injected into the 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
