Storing Tires SAFETY Tires for construction equipment are extremely heavy. Mishandling of these tires may lead to serious personal injury or death. To maintain safety, always respect these precautions. As a basic rule, store the tires in a warehouse with restricted access to authorized personnel only. If the tires must be stored outside, always erect a fence and put up “No Entry” signs. Stand the tire on level ground at a 60° - 70° angle, and block it securely so that it cannot roll or fall over if any person should touch it. Do not lay the tire on its side. This will deform the tire and cause it to deteriorate. If the tire should fall over, do not attempt to stop it.
Get out of the way quickly. Using Compressed Air When cleaning with compressed air, there is a danger of serious personal injury caused by flying dust or particles. When using compressed air to clean the filter element or radiator, wear safety glasses, anti-dust mask, gloves, and other protective equipment. Disposal of Waste Materials Never dump waste fluids in a sewer system, on the ground, in rivers, etc. Always drain fluids from your machine into the appropriate containers. Never drain fluids directly onto the ground. Obey appropriate laws and regulations when disposing of harmful objects such as oil, fuel, filters, batteries, coolant, brake fluid, and hydraulic oil.
Critical Parts The material of these components naturally changes over time. Repeated use causes deterioration, wear, and fatigue. As a result, there is a danger that these components may fail and cause serious personal injury or death. It is difficult to judge the remaining life of these components from external inspection or the feeling when operating. These parts must be replaced at the specified interval. WA430-6 1-51
