Safety Precautions
The vehicle should be properly operated and maintained to keep it in safe,
efficient operating condition. Be sure that all controls are free of mud, grease, or
other matter that might cause slips hazardous to the operator, serviceman, or
other personnel or equipment. Report all malfunctions to those responsible for
maintenance, and, do not operate the equipment until corrected. Normal service
or maintenance performed as required can prevent unexpected and unnecessary
downtime.
This Handbook describes general inspections, servicing and operation with the
normal safety precautions required for normal servicing and operating conditions.
It is not a guide however, for other than normal conditions or situations, and
therefore, servicemen and operators must be safety conscious and alert to
recognize potential servicing or operating safety hazards at all times, and take,
necessary precautions to assure safe servicing and operation of the vehicle.
