MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN

servicing this unit:
1. Stop machine on a level surface. (AVOID parking
on a slope, but if necessary, park across the
slope and block the tires.)
2. Fully retract the boom and lower the attachment
tool to the ground. Idle engine for gradual
cooling.
3. Place controls in neutral and apply parking
brake.
4. Shut off the engine and remove the key.
ONLY when you have taken these precautions
can you be sure it is safe to proceed. Failure to
follow the above procedure could lead to death or
serious injury.
RELIEVE HYDRAULIC OIL PRESSURE:

2. Lower equipment to the ground. Return the
engine to idle for 30 seconds then shut down the
engine.
3. Turn the key switch on. Operate the joystick in
each direction. Confirm that there is no
attachment or unit movement. This should
ensure there is no residual pressure trapped in
the control circuit.
