OPERATOR SERVICES
Some of the operator services require access to
components located underneath shields, hoods,
covers, and other areas inside of the paver chassis.
Choose a clean, level work area. Make sure you
have sufficient room, clearances, and ventilation.
Clean the walking and working surfaces. Remove
oil, grease, and water to eliminate slippery areas. If
necessary, use sand or oil-absorbing compounds
while servicing the paver.
Before inspecting and repairing the paver, move it
onto a level surface, shut down the engine, and
release all hydraulic pressure. Refer to “Mandatory
Safety Shutdown Procedure” on page 15. Always
lower the hopper to the "full down" position. If the
area under the hopper requires service, raise the
hopper to "full up" and swing up the two safety
props. Place all controls in "neutral."
Disconnect the battery and then remove the
ignition key and take it with you. Only remove
guards or covers that prevent needed access to
components located inside of the superstructure.
Wipe away excess grease and oil. Replace any
worn, cracked, or damaged parts, these parts can
cause injury or death.
Use only genuine Gehl replacement service parts.
Be sure not to damage polished surfaces. Clean or
replace all damaged or painted over plates and
decals that cannot be read.
NOTE: Never leave guards or access covers
removed when the paver is unattended. Keep
bystanders away if access covers are
removed.
Check the work performed after servicing. Re-
install all guards, covers and reconnect the battery.
WARNING
Do not smoke or allow any open flames in the
area while checking or servicing hydraulic,
battery, fuel or propane systems; all contain
highly flammable liquids or explosive gases,
which can cause an explosion or fire if ignited.
Wear a face shield when disassembling spring-
loaded components or work with battery acid.
Wear a helmet or goggles with special lenses
when welding or cutting with a torch.
When working beneath a raised machine,
always use blocks, jack-stands or other rigid
and stable supports. Wear appropriate
protective clothing, gloves, shoes. Keep feet,
clothing, hands and hair away from moving
parts.
Always wear safety glasses or goggles for eye
protection from electric arcs from shorts, fluids
under pressure, and flying debris or loose
material when the engine is running or tools
are used for grinding or pounding.
NEVER weld on hopper, screed or frame
without the consent of the manufacturer.
Special metals may be used, which require
special welding techniques or have a design
that should not have weld repairs. NEVER cut
or weld on fuel lines or tanks.
If repair welding is ever required, be sure to
attach the ground (-) cable from the welder as
close as possible to the area to be repaired.
Remove positive (+) battery terminal connec-
tion before proceeding to weld.
SERVICE EVERY 10 HOURS OR DAILY
