SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS ON MAINTENANCE
Be careful with hot and pressurized
components
Stop the engine and allow the machine to
cool down before performing maintenance.
• The engine, muffler, radiator, hydraulic
lines, sliding parts and many other parts of
the machine are hot immediately after the
engine is stopped. Touching these parts
will cause burns.
• The engine coolant, hydraulic oil and other
oils are also hot and under high pressure.
Be careful not to touch the hydraulic oil
when loosening the cap or plug. Working
on the machine under these conditions
could result in burns or injuries due to the
hot oil spurting out.
• The DPF and the exhaust gas emitted from
the exhaust line can be very hot while the
engine is running or the regeneration is
under way, as well as immediately after the
engine is stopped. Be careful not to
accidentally touch them; doing so could
cause burns.
Be careful with hot cooling systems
Do not remove the radiator cap or the drain
plug when the cooling water is hot. Stop the
engine and wait until the engine and the
cooling water cool. Then, slowly loosen the
radiator cap to release the internal pressure
and remove it.
