Safety Practices

13

Model 944E

Origin 3/04

DO NOT use ether or any
other high energy
starting aids during cold
starting. An engine
explosion can result in
death or serious personal
injury.

D. Hydraulic Fluid

DO NOT attempt to repair or tighten any hydraulic hoses or fittings while
the engine is running or when the hydraulic system is under pressure. Fluid
in the hydraulic system is under enough pressure that it can penetrate the
skin causing death or serious personal injuries.

HOT HYDRAULIC FLUID WILL CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. Wait for fluid to
cool down before disconnecting lines.

DO NOT use your hand to check for leaks. Use a piece of cardboard or
paper to search for leaks. Wear gloves to protect hands from spraying fluid.

Hydraulic fluid can cause permanent eye injury. Wear appropriate eye
protection and stop engine. Relieve pressure before disconnecting lines.
Pressure can typically be relieved by slowly and cautiously loosening one
end of a hose at the swivel connection.

If anyone is injured by or if any hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin, obtain
medical attention immediately or gangrene may result.

E. Batteries

The following WARNING is intended to
supplement and does not replace the
warnings and information provided on
the battery by the battery
manufacturer.

When jump starting the vehicle,
carefully follow instructions found
under ìJump Startingî on page 87.

Keep sparks, flames and lit smoking
materials away from the battery at all
times. Lead acid batteries generate
explosive gases. Severe chemical
burns can result from improper
handling of battery electrolyte. Wear
safety glasses and proper protective
gear when handling batteries to
prevent electrolyte from coming in
contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
