DO NOT run the engine in an enclosed area with-
out providing proper ventilation for the exhaust.
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an odor-
less and deadly gas. Internal combustion engines
deplete the oxygen supply within enclosed spaces
and may create a serious hazard unless the oxygen
is replaced. This includes the atmosphere within
the cab when provided.
 DO NOT leave the operator’s station with the
boom and attachment tool raised. ALWAYS lower
the boom and attachment tool to the ground, shut
off the engine and engage the parking brake
BEFORE leaving the operator’s station.
 DO NOT refill the fuel tank when the engine is
hot. Allow engine to cool down BEFORE refilling
to prevent hot engine from igniting the fuel if it
should spill or splash.
 DO NOT smoke while filling the fuel tank, while
working on the fuel or hydraulic systems, or while
working around the battery.
 DO NOT drive too close to an excavation or ditch.
BE SURE that the surrounding ground has ade-
quate strength to support the weight of the machine
and the load it is carrying.
 DO NOT turn quickly while traveling on a slope or
operate the machine beyond the grade and slope
limits noted in the OPERATION & ADJUST-
MENT chapter of the Operator’s Manual.
 If necessary to park on a grade, park across the
slope and block the wheels.
 DO NOT fill the fuel tank to capacity. Allow room
for expansion. Maintain control of the fuel filler
nozzle when filling the tank. Use the correct fuel
grade for the operating season.
 NEVER use fuel for cleaning purposes.
 DO NOT remove the radiator cap after the engine
has reached operating temperature or if it is over-
heated. At operating temperatures, the engine
coolant will be extremely hot and under pressure.
ALWAYS wait for the engine to cool down before
attempting to relieve pressure and remove the radi-
ator cap. Failure to heed this warning could result
in severe burns.
 DO NOT loosen or disconnect any hydraulic lines,
hoses or fittings without first relieving hydraulic
circuit pressure. Also, be careful not to touch any
hydraulic components that have been in recent
operation because they can be extremely hot and
can burn you!
 Avoid lubrication or mechanical adjustments with
the machine in motion or the engine operating. If
the engine must be in operation to make certain
adjustments, place the transmission in neutral,
apply the parking brake, place the equipment in a
safe position, securely block the wheels and use
extreme caution.
 NEVER allow any riders on this machine or use as
a lift for personnel. This is strictly a single seat,
NO passenger machine!
 To insure continued safe operation, replace dam-
aged or worn-out parts with genuine GEHL service
parts, BEFORE using this equipment.
