 Never perform welding or work that gives off heat
on an assembled tire. The heat would increase the
tire pressure, which could cause the tire to explode.
 If the telescopic handler is equipped with an elec-
tronic control unit, disconnect this before starting
to weld, to avoid the risk of causing permanent
damage to electronic components.
WASHING THE TELESCOPIC HANDLER
 Clean the telescopic handler or at least the area
concerned before any servicing.
 Remember to close and lock all accesses to the
telescopic handler (door, window, …).
 During washing, avoid the pinch points and elec-
trical components and connections.
 If necessary, protect components susceptible to
being damaged, against the penetration of water,
steam or cleaning agents, particularly electrical
components and connections and the injection
pump.
 Clean the telescopic handler of any fuel, oil or
grease and grime.
IMPORTANT: For any service other than regular
maintenance, consult your dealer.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
The following recommendations are intended to pre-
vent the telescopic handler from being damaged when
it is withdrawn from service for an extended period.
IMPORTANT: Procedures to follow if the tele-
scopic handler is not to be used for a long time
and for starting it up again afterward are best per-
formed by a dealer.
