Accumulator, handling
WARNING
Risk of serious injury.
Accumulators are charged with highly pressured
nitrogen. Improper handling could lead to an
explosion causing serious injury.
Work on an accumulator must only be done by a
qualified service technician.
- Do not hit, drill or weld the accumulator.
- Keep it away from open flame or other highly
heated sources.
- If you operate the operating lever downward just
after the engine stops, the accumulator allows the
attachment to move by its own weight.
- After releasing the pressure in accumulator,
move the control lockout lever down to lock the
system securely, see page

.
