CAUTION: Hydraulic systems are
highly pressurized. Escaping
hydraulic oil, even an invisible
pinhole leak, can penetrate body
tissues causing serious injury.
Use a piece of wood or cardboard
when looking for leaks— never
use the hands or other parts of the
body.
Relieve hydraulic pressure before
disconnecting circuits. When
reassembling, make absolutely
certain that all connections are
tight
If injured by hydraulic oil escaping
under pressure, see a doctor
immediately. Serious complica-
tions may arise if medical atten-
tion is not given at once.
CAUTION: Too much air pressure
in the tires can cause tire or rim
failure. Never put more air
pressure in a tire than specified in
the operator’s manual or on the
sidewall of the tire. If the tire or rim
explodes because of too much
pressure, injury can result.
CAUTION: When removing a
battery, always disconnect the (-)
negative ground cable first. When
installing the battery, always
connect the (-) negative ground
cable last.
CAUTION: Storage areas for
batteries must be well ventilated to
prevent accumulation of hydrogen
gas from newly recharged
batteries.
DANGER: Batteries produce ex-
plosive charges. Keep sparks,
flame and cigarettes away. Ven-
tilate when charging or using in
enclosed space. Always shield
eyes when working near batteries.
