23. Replacing Essential Parts Periodically
For safe operation, the machine must be serviced periodically. To increase safety, be sure to periodically
replace the parts listed in the table of safety parts on the next page. A fire could result if they deteriorate
or are damaged.
These parts are vulnerable to aging and wear or deterioration and it is difficult to determine the degree
to which they have deteriorated on the occasion of periodic service. To maintain their proper function at
all times, therefore, replace them with new ones after using them for a specific period of time even if no
abnormality is found with the parts.
If you find abnormalities in these parts before their scheduled replacement time is reached, repair or re-
place them immediately.
If a hose clamp is deformed or cracked, replace it immediately.
Check the hydraulic hoses, which are not periodic replacement parts. If any abnormality is found in them,
retighten them or replace them immediately.
When replacing the hydraulic hoses, replace the O-rings and seals at the same time.
For further information about replacing the safety parts, ask your dealer.
Check the fuel and hydraulic hoses according to the periodic schedule described below.
