Heed
the
following when removing
or
installing an attachment
or
option:
• Consult
with
a Takeuchi before installing optional attachments.
• Do
not
use attachments
that
have
not
been approved
by
Takeuchi. Doing so
may
compromise safety
or
adversely affect
the
machine's operation
or
service life.
• Takeuchi will
not
be
held responsible
for
any injuries, accidents
or
damage
to
products
caused
by
the
use
of
a non-approved attachment.
• Choose a flat, hard surface
to
perform the operations. Also make sure there is enough
light and
good
ventilation.
• Clean
the
area, remove any articles
that
may
get
in
the
way
or
be dangerous, and
remove any spilled oil
or
grease.
• When removing
or
installing a attachment, place
it
in a stable position
so
that
it
does
not
tip
over.
• Due
to
the
risk
of
loads falling
and/or
hitting people,
do
not
allow
unauthorized
personnel in the
work
area.
• Use a crane
to
carry heavy
objects
[25 kg (55 lb.)
or
greater].
• When removing heavy parts,
be
sure
to
prop
them
up
before removing them. When
lifting
them
with
a crane, be careful
to
balance
them
properly.
• Operating
with
loads suspended
with
the
crane is dangerous. Place loads on a stand
and
check
for
safety.
• When attaching
the
attachments, failure
to
follow
proper
procedures could result in
serious damage. Consult a Takeuchi dealer beforehand.
Precautions on Installing Attachments
After replacing optional attachments or other special attachments, test-run them, then inspect
the hydraulic oil level and add oil if necessary.
In
addition, consult a Takeuchi dealer for details
of
removal and installation procedures.
