1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
MAINTENANCE
1. Stop the engine before performing any service on the machine.
2. Never refuel the machine while smoking or with the engine hot or running.
3. Replace all missing, illegible or damaged safety and warning decals. See
section 1.2.
4. Do not modify or alter, or permit anyone to modify or alter this machine or any
of its components or machine functions.
5. Do not bypass the safety systems. Consult your Thomas Equipment Dealer if
your safety system is malfunctioning.
6. Do not make mechanical adjustments while the machine is in motion or when
the engine is running.
7. Do not attempt to repair or tighten hydraulic lines when the system is under
pressure. Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin and cause
serious injury or death.
8. Whenever replacing pivot pins, always use a brass drift and hammer. Failure to
do so could result in injury from flying metal fragments.
9. The cooling system operates under pressure which is controlled by the radiator
cap. It is dangerous to remove the cap while the system is hot. Allow the
engine to cool before removing the radiator cap.
10. Wear protective clothing such as safety eye wear, hearing protection, steel toe
foot wear, gloves and hard hats.
11. The engine RPM (speed), is preset from the factory. Changing the preset speed
may cause severe damage to the shaker components, and will void your
warranty.
12. Battery gas can explode. Keep sparks and flames away from batteries. Never
short the battery terminals to check charge. Use a voltage meter or hydrometer.
13. Sulfuric acid in battery electrolyte is poisonous. Fill batteries in a well
ventilated area. Wear eye protection and rubber gloves. Avoid breathing fumes
when charging or electrolyte is added.
14. For securing and towing instructions, refer to sections 3.6.
15. Dispose of waste responsibly. Improper disposal of waste can harm the
environment and ecology. Contact your local environmental agency for proper
waste disposal procedures.
