5. MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
5.1 PRECAUTIONS BEFORE MAINTENANCE
Execution of a maintenance not described in our manual may cause unexpected failures.
Ask us or our sales service agency for repair.
PRECAUTIONS FOR WARNING TAG
• Always attach the “Do NOT operate” warning tag to the work
equipment control lever in the operator’s cab to alert others that you
are performing service or maintenance on the machine. Attach
additional warning tags around the machine if necessary.
Warning tag Part No. 09963- 03001
Keep this warning tag in the tool box while it is not used. If there is
no tool box, keep the tag in the operation manual pocket.
• If others start the engine, or touch or operate the work equipment
control lever while you are performing service or maintenance, you
could suffer serious injury or property damage.
Do NOT operate
When this tag is not being used, keep it in the storage
compartment. When there is no storage compartment; keep it in
the operation manual case.
KEEP WORK PLACE CLEAN AND TIDY
• Do not leave hammers or other tools lying around in the work place. Wipe up all grease, oil, or other
substances that will cause you to slip. Always keep the work place clean and tidy to enable you to carry
out operation safety.
If the work place is not kept clean and tidy, there is the danger that you will trip, slip, or fall over and
injure yourself.
• When cleaning the ceiling window which is made of organic glass (polycarbonate), use tap water and
avoid use of organic solvents for cleaning. An organic solvent like benzene, toluene or methanol can
invite a chemical reaction like dissolution and decomposition on the window glass, deteriorating
polycarbonate in use.
• Stop the machine on firm, level ground.
• Select a place where there is no hazard of falling rocks or landsides, or flooding if the land is low.
Only authorized personnel can service and repair the machine. Do not allow unauthorized personnel
into the area. If necessary, employ an observer.
FOLLOW SUPERVISOR INSTRUCTION DURING TEAMWORK
Appoint a person who supervises the work and follow his/her instructions in case of Machine repair or
installing/uninstalling a work device.
Unexpected accidents due to misunderstood communication between workers may occur during
teamwork.
