SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL
XXI
–
Alighting from the driving position when the engine is running, al-
though permitted in emergencies, creates a hazardous situation for
which additional precautions must be taken as regards the tractor and
any implements connected to it. In any case, before leaving the driving
position, make sure that all the safety devices are in place, that no-one
is in the vicinity of the tractor, that the tractor is parked on a level sur-
face, that the handbrake is applied and that all the drive control levers
are in neutral position. While alighting from the tractor, keep well clear
of any moving parts.
–
NEVER operate the tractor
inside a building with the
doors closed. It is essential
to ensure that the area is
sufficiently ventilated.
–
Fluids under pressure can
cause severe injury.
NEVER use your hands to
trace an oil or fuel leak. Use
instead a piece of wood or
cardboard for this purpose.
Before disconnecting any
part of a normally pressur-
ised circuit, always make
sure that the circuit is fully
depressurised. If engine oil,
hydraulic fluid or any fluid
from a pressurised circuit
penetrates your skin, seek
medical assistance IMME-
DIATELY.
–
DO NOT use explosive
ether based products to facilitate cold starting. Follow the instructions
given in this manual in the section “Cold starting”.
–
Incorrect connection of the battery terminals or between the battery
and a battery charger could damage the electrical system or even
cause the battery to explode. NEVER connect the battery terminals
together. The acid electrolyte contained in the battery is highly corro-
sive and can cause burns or even blindness if it enters the eyes. When
filling/topping up a battery with electrolyte, NEVER smoke or allow a
naked flame in the vicinity and always wear safety goggles.
