Refueling PrecautionsRefueling Precautions
• Do NOT overll the fuel tank as overow creates a re
hazard when spilled on hot components.
• DO NOT smoke when refueling and never refuel when
the engine is running. Fuel is highly ammable and
should be handled with care. Death or serious injury
can occur due to explosion and/or re.
• DO NOT ll tank to capacity. Allow room for expansion
to reduce the risk of fuel expanding and spilling from
the tank.
• Tighten fuel cap securely. Should fuel cap be lost,
replace it with an original manufacturer’s approved
cap. Pressurization of the tank may result from use of
non-approved cap.
• Prevent res by keeping the machine clean of
accumulated debris, grease, and spilled fuel.
• Use ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) only.
Battery PrecautionsBattery Precautions
• Keep all sparks and ames away from batteries, as
gas given off by electrolytes is explosive.
• Acid propelled by an explosion can cause blindness
if it comes in contact with eyes. Always wear safety
glasses when working near batteries.
• If you come in contact with battery electrolyte solution,
wash off immediately. Chemicals can cause burns.
• Always disconnect the battery ground cable before
working on the electrical system to avoid injury from
spark or short circuit. Electrical shock and burns can
occur.
• To avoid electrolyte loss, DO NOT tip batteries more
than 45 degrees.
• Use jumper cables ONLY as directed in Section
5. Improper use can result in battery explosion or
unexpected paver motion.
Starting and Stopping Starting and Stopping
PrecautionsPrecautions
• Check all around the paver to make sure there are no
people working on the machine or in the path of the
machine before starting. DO NOT start until area is
clear. Death or serious injury can occur to bystanders
from being crushed under a moving machine.
• Check brakes, steering and other control devices in
accordance with instructions before starting. Be sure
both steering levers (joysticks) are in neutral with the
neutral lock engaged.
• DO NOT bypass the paver neutral-start system.
DO NOT operate the engine in an
enclosed area without proper ventillation. Exhaust
gasses are odorless and deadly.
Parking PrecautionsParking Precautions
• Park paver on level ground whenever possible, set
steering levers in neutral and lock. Apply the parking
brake (if this optional comonent is installed). Park the
paver with wheels securely blocked on grades.

1. Place Forward/Reverse handle in neutral and lock
in place.
