SAFETY WORKING
1. Do not operate or service the machine while under
the influence of alcohol, medication, or other
substances.
2. Never wear loose fit clothing and always use safety
equipment appropriate to the job.
3. Never use improvised tools, parts or procedures.
Use only recommended tools appropriate to the
work.
4. Be careful to perform all work safely when servicing
is done by two or more people.
5. Always support the machine by safety stands. Never
work under the machine that is supported solely by
a jack.
6. Do not touch any rotating or hot parts while the en-
gine is running.
7. Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is
running, or immediately after stopping. Only remove
radiator cap when cool enough to touch with bare
hands. Slowly loosen the cap to relieve pressure
before removing completely.
8. Escaping fluid (fuel or hydraulic oil) under pressure
can penetrate the skin causing serious injury.
Relieve pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or
fuel lines. Tighten all connections before applying
pressure.

AVOID FIRES
1. Never smoke or allow flames or sparks in your work-
ing area, as fuel is extremely flammable and explo-
sive under certain conditions.
2. Always disconnect the negative battery cable first
and reconnect it last to avoid sparks from an acci-
dental short circuit.
3. Battery gas will ignite. Keep sparks and open flame
away from the top of battery, especially while
charging.
4. Be careful not to spill fuel on the engine.
