• Safely lock/support vehicle components before starting
work.
• Apply special care when working on the fuel system
due to the increased fire hazard.
Preparatory measures
• Attach a warning label to the control elements (for
example, “Machine being serviced, do not start”).
• Before performing assembly work on the vehicle,
support the areas to be serviced and use suitable
lifting and supporting equipment for the replacement of
parts over 9 kg (20 lbs.).
• Perform maintenance only if:
- the vehicle is positioned on firm and level ground
- the machine is secured to prevent it from rolling
away (for example, with the parking brake, wheel
chocks), and if all attachments/the work equipment
is lowered to the ground
- the engine is stopped
- the starting key has been removed
- the pressure in the operating hydraulics has been
released
• If maintenance has to be performed under a raised
machine/attachment, support the machine/attachment
(for example, with a lift platform, trestles) ensuring
safety and stability.
• Hydraulic cylinders or jacks alone do not sufficiently
secure a raised vehicle/attachment.
