SAFETY
General Precautions
working
in
severe conditions where
large
amounts of combustible debris
are
present. Engine exhaust systems
provide numerous small pockets where
flammable debris
can
gather.
Even
small
accumulations close to hot exhaust
components
can
ignite and smolder.
4. Clean out
all
accumulated debris (twigs,
pine needles, branches, bark, leaves,
saw dust, small wood chips)
and
any
other combustible materials from inside
the machine belly pans or lower machine
structures
as
well
as
from areas
in
proximity to the engine, fuel
and
hydraulic
oil systems no less frequently than at the
completion of each work shift.
5. Inspect the machine regularly for any
signs of diesel
fuel
or hydraulic system
leakage. Check for worn or damaged
fuel
or hydraulic lines before starting up any
equipment.
6. Clean up any grease, diesel
fuel,
hydraulic
and
lubricating
oil
accumulation
and
spillage immediately.

9. Inspect the exhaust system daily for any
signs of leakage. Check for worn, cracked,
broken or damaged pipes or muffler. Also
check for missing or damaged bolts or
clamps. Should

exhaust leaks or
defective parts be found, repairs must
be made immediately. Engine exhaust
leaks can cause fires.

the machine until the exhaust leak
is
repaired.
10. During daily operation of the machine,
the occurrence of exhaust leaks
are
usually accompanied by a change or
11
increase
in
engine exhaust noise levels.
These audible warnings cannot be
ignored. Should any exhaust leaks occur
during operation, the machine must be
shut down immediately and not put back
to work until the necessary repairs have
been completed.

as
welding, the surrounding
area
should be
cleaned
and
