Safety when servicing
Service position
Before you begin any service work, the machine should be
placed on level ground and prepared for service as shown below:
1 Lock the steering joint with the steering joint lock. Lower the
dump body on the frame.
If service has to be performed with the dump body up,
secure it with the dump body lock or the dump body support,
see page 100. Lock the tipping control with the lock-out control,
see page 48.
2 Let the machine cool.
3 Carefully release the pressure in pressurised lines and
pressure vessels. When working on the brake system, no plugs
or pressure lines may be loosened before the pressure in the
system has been released.
4 Apply the parking brake.
5 A yellow-black warning label or a red flag should be attached to
the steering wheel while service is being done.
6 Stop the engine and take out the ignition (does not apply when
checking the oil in the transmission).
7 Block the wheels in a suitable way (with, for example, wedges).
NOTE! When lifting the machine, the steering joint must be
locked and the eyes intended for lifting must be used.
IMPORTANT! If turn-around wheels are installed they must
always be lowered during service and repair work, but they
may not be used as jacks.
WARNING!
If work has to be carried out on the machine before it has
cooled down, care must be observed with regard to hot
liquids and hot machine parts – risk of burns.
