OM2034 General Safety PRECAUTIONS WITH BATTERY When repairing the electrical system or when carrying out electrical welding, remove the negative (-) terminal of the battery to stop the flow of current. HANDLING HIGH-PRESSURE HOSES Do not bend high-pressure hoses or hit them with hard objects. Do not use any bent or cracked piping, tubes or hoses. They may burst during use. Always repair any loose or broken fuel hoses or oil hoses. If fuel or oil leaks, it may cause a fire. PRECAUTIONS WITH HIGH PRESSURE OIL Do not forget that the work equipment circuits are always under pressure. In addition, the steering and brake circuits may be pressurized even thought the engine is stopped.
Do not add oil, drain oil, or carry out maintenance or inspection before completely releasing the internal pressure. If oil is leaking under high pressure from small holes, it is dangerous if the jet of high-pressure oil hits the skin or enters the eyes. Always wear safety glasses and thick gloves, and use a piece of cardboard or a sheet of wood to check for oil leakage. If you are hit by a jet of high-pressure oil, consult a doctor immediately for medical attention. ety Safety - Section 20 Page 20-13 WATER LEVEL ecessary to add water to the radiator, stop the engine and allow the nd radiator to cool down before adding the water. oosen the cap to relieve pressure before removing the cap.
