OM2231 Safety - Section 22
Warnings and Cautions Page 22-3
A warning plate is mounted on top of the radiator
surge tank cover near the radiator cap. The engine
cooling system is pressurized when the engine is on
and/or when the system is hot. Turn the engine off
and allow the engine to cool before removing the
radiator cap. Release the internal pressure by
depressing the pressure relief. Unless the pressure
is first released, removing the radiator cap will result
in the hot coolant being expelled from the radiator.
Serious scalding and burning can result.
A caution decal is attached below the hydraulic tank
oil level sight gauge. Check the oil level with the body
down, engine stopped, and the key switch OFF.
Refer to the filling instructions outlined in Section 40,
Lubrication and Service. Instructions are also out-
lined on the following decal.
A plate on the side of the hydraulic tank provides
instructions for filling the hydraulic tank.
Keep the system open to the atmosphere only as
long as necessary to lessen the chances of system
contamination. Service the tank with clean type C-4
hydraulic oil. All oil being put into the hydraulic tank
must be filtered to three microns.
This danger plate is attached to each suspension
and steering accumulator. These plates warn that the
suspension and accumulators are charged with high-
pressure nitrogen. Read the service manual, and fol-
low the safety procedures when performing service
on these components.
