General
Electrical Repairs
The machine uses a 48V electrical system. The electrical cables carrying 48V are orange in colour. Never touch
the wire terminals or remove any of the protective covers unless you are trained accordingly and the machine
has been made safe, otherwise you could be electrocuted.
Modifications
Do not modify any part of the electrical system, there is a risk of fire and injury from electrocution. Repairs must
only be carried out trained personnel.
Raised Machine
Never position yourself or any part of your body under a raised machine which is not correctly supported. If the
machine moves unexpectedly you could become trapped and suffer serious injury or be killed.
Compressed Air
Compressed air is dangerous. Wear personal protective equipment. Never point a compressed air jet at yourself
or others.
Springs
Always wear personal protective equipment when dismantling assemblies containing components under
pressure from springs. This will protect against eye injury from components accidentally flying out.
Metal Splinters
You can be injured by flying metal splinters when driving metal pins in or out. Use a soft faced hammer or
copper drift to remove and install metal pins. Always wear personal protective equipment.
Repairs
If your machine does not function correctly in any way, get it repaired straight away. Neglect of necessary
repairs could result in an accident or affect your health. Do not try to do repairs or any other type of maintenance
work you do not understand. To avoid injury and/or damage get the work done by a specialist engineer.
Hydraulic Pressure
Hydraulic fluid at system pressure can injure you. Before connecting or removing any hydraulic hose, residual
hydraulic pressure trapped in the service hose line must be vented. Make sure the hose service line has been
vented before connecting or removing hoses. Make sure the machine cannot be started while the hoses are
open.
'O' rings, Seals and Gaskets
Badly installed, damaged or rotted 'O' rings, seals and gaskets can cause leakages and possible accidents.
Renew whenever disturbed unless otherwise instructed. Do not use Triochloroethane or paint thinners near
'O' rings and seals.
Soft Ground
A machine can sink into soft ground. Never work under a machine on soft ground.
Working Under the Machine
Make the machine safe. Make sure that the machine is fully isolated. Remove the ignition key and disconnect
the battery.
Hydraulic Hoses
Never re-use hydraulic hose end crimps or use reusable hose end crimps.
Personal Protective Equipment
Use the appropriate personal protective equipment before performing maintenance on the machine, otherwise
you could be injured.
Working at Height
Use appropriate access equipment such as ladders or a working platform if it is necessary to work at height
to perform maintenance tasks on the machine. If you do not use suitable access equipment there is a risk of
falling, resulting in personal injury or death.
