Komatsu — 8.2 DURING MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Failure to follow these safety precautions may lead to a serious accident. SAFETY ROTATING FAN AND BELT Keep away from rotating parts and be careful not to let anything get caught in them. If your body or tools touch the fan blades or fan belt, they may be cut off or sent flying, so never touch any rotating parts. TIRE MAINTENANCE Disassembly, repair, and assembly of tires requires special equipment and skill; please ask your tire repair shop to perform the repairs. Failure to carry out inspection and maintenance fully, or failure to check the function of various maintenance items may cause unexpected problems and may even lead to personal injury and/or damage.

Stop the engine and address these questions. Have all the inspection and maintenance locations been checked? Have all inspection and maintenance items been carried out correctly? Have any tools or parts dropped inside the machine (especially dangerous if fallen items disrupt control levers)? Are hydraulic and cooling water systems free of leaks? Are bolts and fasteners tight?
