Komatsu — 2.8.22 PRECAUTIONS FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM TAIL PIPE

PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE 2.8.21 PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN WHEN INFLATING TYRES When being inflated, the tyres may explode and come off, thus causing serious accidents. Before inflating the tyres, always check the conditions of the rims and the outer conditions of the tyres themselves, in order make sure that there are no dents, cuts, torn plies or other de- fects. It is advisable to have these checks and maintenance opera- tions carried out by a specialized technician. RWA01680 Inflate the tyres using a protection structure and a pneumatic inflating gun with extension complete with controlling pressure gauge.

Before starting this operation, make sure that there is no one in the vicinity and position yourself in front of the tread. Do not exceed the inflation pressures prescribed for the single types of tyre and make sure that all the tyres have the same pressure. 2.8.22 PRECAUTIONS FOR THE INSTAL- LATION OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM TAIL PIPE 2 When the machine is stopped at the end of work, the exhaust pipe (1) and the tailpipe (2) are very hot. In these conditions, if any maintenance operation has to be carried out, the operator runs the risk of being burned or injured. Carry out any maintenance operation only when the tempera- ture of these parts is normal and in any case always use thick gloves.

1 Be particularly careful when reassembling the tailpipe (2) on the exhaust pipe (1). The tailpipe (2) must be positioned in the correct direction and respecting the angles indicated in the figure (A). By following the procedure indicated above, you prevent the exhaust gases from being directed towards the cab and there- fore towards the operator. RWA33380 52 A 60˚ 2 1 2 RWA3339
