* Shut off engine and use extra caution if engine is hot when refuelling. Ground
the hose spout to prevent sparks when spout is touched to fuel tank filler tube.
* Never smoke while checking or adding fuel or other fluids or handling fluid
containers and lines.
* Use care and do not stand downwind when adding fuel or other flammable fluids
to tanks and reservoirs to avoid fluids being blown or splashed onto clothing.
* Close fuel tank shut-off valves, if used, before servicing fuel system.
* When preparing machines or components for storage, seal and tape all
openings and close containers tightly to seal in all volatile inhibitor fluids and
compounds used.
* Follow manufacturer’s recommendations when handling and using engine-
starting fluids and disposing of spent containers. Do not puncture or burn
empty containers. These fluids are explosive and highly flammable.
Electrical Hazard Precautions
* Never smoke or allow open flames or sparks near batteries.
* Leave battery box open when charging batteries in machine for adequate
ventilation of explosive gas (hydrogen) produced.
* Always disconnect batteries before repairing electrical system to avoid
danger of fire-causing sparks. Disconnect battery ground cable first and
reconnect last.

and body hydraulic joystick before carrying out any welding on the machine.
