Maintenance Precautions
Have a Gehl technician repair
weld cracks or other damage
If welding must be performed, make sure that
it is done by a qualified person in a properly
equipped workplace. To prevent any part
from breaking down or be being damaged
due to overcurrent or sparks, observe the
following.
Disconnect the wiring from the battery
before doing electric welding.
Do not continuously apply 200V or more.
The earth ground must be connected
within one meter from the welding
section. Do not connect the earth ground
near to an electronically controlled device/
instrument or connectors.
Make sure that there are no seals or
bearings between the welding section
and the earth ground.
Do not connect the earth ground around
the pins for working equipment or
hydraulic cylinders.
When welding is to be done on the
machine body, disconnect the connectors
for the electronically controlled devices
before working.
Safety signs
Keep all safety signs clean and legible.
Replace all missing, illegible or damaged
safety and warning signs.
Vibrations to which the operator is
subjected
According to the results of the tests carried
out to determine the vibrations transmitted
to the operator by the machine, the upper
limbs are subjected to vibrations lower than
2.5 m (8.2 ft.) / s
2
, while the seated part of the
body is subjected to vibrations lower than
0.5 m (1.64 ft.) / s
2
.
Checks after maintenance
Gradually raise the engine speed from low
idle to maximum speed and check that
no oil or water is leaking from serviced
parts.
Move the controls and check that the
machine is operating properly.
Disposing of wastes
Pour waste fluids from the machine into
containers. Disposing of fluids improperly
destroys the environment.
Follow the prescribed regulations when
disposing of oil, fuel, engine coolant,
refrigerant, solvents, filters, batteries and
other harmful substances.
Handling of poisonous chemicals
Poisonous chemicals will cause serious
injury if directly contacted.
Poisonous chemistry used in this machine
includes grease, battery solution, coolant,
paint and adhesive agent.
