2.6. STORAGE SAFETY
• Store in an area away from human activity.
• Do not permit children to play on or around the stored machine.
2.7. HYDRAULIC SAFETY
• Always place all hydraulic controls in neutral and relieve system pressure
before disconnecting or working on hydraulic system.
• Keep all components in the hydraulic system tightly secured, clean and in
good condition.
• Replace any worn, cut, abraded, flattened, or crimped hoses.
• Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the hydraulic fittings or hoses with
tape, clamps, or adhesive. The hydraulic system operates under extremely
high pressure; such repairs will fail suddenly and create a hazardous and
unsafe condition.
• Before moving a hydraulic cylinder, ensure that the attached component is
safely secured.
WARNING
Hydraulic fluid can cause serious injury if it
penetrates the skin. If it does, see a doctor
immediately.
• Relieve pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic line.
