SAFETY
Prohibit access by unauthorized persons
Do not allow unauthorized personnel in the
work area while working. Be careful when
grinding, welding or using a hammer. You
could be injured by flying debris from the
machine.
PRECAUTIONS ON MAINTENANCE
Prepare work area
• Select a firm, level work area. Make sure
there is adequate light and, if indoors,
ventilation.
• Clear obstacles and dangerous objects.
Eliminate slippery areas.
Always keep the machine clean
• Clean the machine before performing
maintenance.
• Stop the engine before washing the
machine. Cover the electrical parts so that
water cannot enter. Water on electrical
parts could cause short-circuits or
malfunctions. Do not use water or steam to
wash the battery, electronic control
components, sensors, connectors or the
operator’s compartment.

Precautions on working on top of the
work bench
• Before performing maintenance on top of
the work bench, clean the footing and
observe the following precautions to
prevent falling.
· Do not spill oil or grease.
· Do not leave tools scattered around.
· Watch your step when walking.
• Never jump down from the machine or the
work bench. When getting on or off the
machine or work bench, use the steps,
handrails or work bench to support your
body. Your weight should be evenly
distributed among the three contact points
(one hand and two feet or two hands and
one foot).
• Do not stand on the dozer blade and
perform maintenance work. Doing so is
dangerous because of the unsteady
foothold. Use the work bench.
