SAFETY Running the Machine During Maintenance To prevent personal injury, do not carry out maintenance with the engine running. If maintenance must be carried out with the engine running, carry out the operation with at least two workers and follow these precautions. If during maintenance you must run the engine, have someone remain in the operator’s seat while the engine is running. One worker must be ready to stop the engine at all times. Instruct the person sitting in the cab not to operate any controls unless instructed to do so. If the control levers must be operated, always give a signal to the worker and have him/her withdraw to a safe place.
For machines equipped with ECSS (Electronically Controlled Suspension System), be sure the system is OFF before proceeding with any maintenance procedures. Lower the work equipment to the ground. Set work equipment lock lever (1) to LOCK position (L). Set parking brake switch (2) to the ON position (A). Put blocks under the tires to prevent the machine from moving. Be aware of rotating parts while the engine is running. Never drop or insert tools or other objects into the fan, fan belt, or other rotating parts. There is danger that these objects may contact the rotating parts and break, or be sent flying. 1-38 WA380-6
