Safety when handling oils and fuel
When changing oil in the engine, hydraulic system or transmission: Remember that the oil may be hot and can
cause burns.
Engine, hydraulic and transmission oils as well as diesel fuel have a corrosive effect on mucous membranes, for
example, in eyes and throat and on skin. Therefore, take special care to keep such oils away from these sensitive
body parts.
When emptying/draining oils or fuel, steps must be taken to avoid unnecessary spills. In places where a container
for collecting the liquid cannot be used, use a pump or connect a hose to ensure safe handling. Oil released or
spilled on the ground will harm the environment and could also cause a fire.
Waste oil/fluids must always be taken care of by a company authorized for such work.
Remember the fire hazard!
