SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
16. Do not damage wiring during removal operations.
Reinstall the wiring so it is not damaged nor will
be damaged in operation of the machine by con-
tacting sharp corners, or by rubbing against some
object or hot surface. Do not connect wiring to a
line containing fluid.
17. Be sure all protective devices including guards
and shields are properly installed and function-
ing correctly before starting a repair. If a guard
or shield must be removed to perform the repair
work, use extra caution and replace the guard or
shield after repair is completed.
18. The maintenance and repair work while holding
the bucket raised is dangerous due to the possi-
bility of a falling attachment. Don't fail to lower
the attachment and place the bucket to the
ground before starting the work.
19. Loose or damaged fuel, lubricant and hydraulic
lines, tubes and hoses can cause fires. Do not
bend or strike high pressure lines or install ones
which have been bent or damaged. Inspect lines,
tubes and hoses carefully. Do not check for leaks
with your hands. Very small (pinhole) leaks can
result in a high velocity oil stream that will be in-
visible close to the hose. This oil can penetrate
the skin and cause personal injury. Use card-
board or paper to locate pinhole leaks.
20. Tighten connections to the correct torque. Make
sure that all heat shields, clamps and guards are
installed correctly to avoid excessive heat, vibra-
tion or rubbing against other parts during opera-
tion. Shields that protect against oil spray onto
hot exhaust components in event of a line, tube
or seal failure must be installed correctly.
21. Do not operate a machine if any rotating part is
damaged or contacts any other part during op-
eration. Any high speed rotating component that
has been damaged or altered should be checked
for balance before reusing.
22. Be careful when servicing or separating the tracks
(crawlers). Chips can fly when removing or in-
stalling a track (crawlers) pin. Wear safety
glasses and long sleeve protective clothing.
Tracks (crawlers) can unroll very quickly when
separated. Keep away from front and rear of
machine. The machine can move unexpectedly
when both tracks (crawlers) are disengaged from
the sprockets. Block the machine to prevent it
from moving.
