Fluid Under Pressure
Fine jets of fluid at high pressure can penetrate the
skin. Keep face and hands well clear of fluid under
pressure and wear protective glasses and gloves.
Hold a piece of cardboard close to suspected leaks
and then inspect the cardboard for signs of fluid. If
fluid penetrates your skin, get medical help
immediately.

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 engine cannot be started while
the hoses are open.

!MCAUTION
Do not allow dirt to enter the system. Before
disconnecting any part of the system, thoroughly
clean around the connection. When a component has
been disconnected, always fit protective caps and
plugs to prevent dirt ingress.
Failure to follow these instructions will lead to dirt
entering the system. Dirt in the system will seriously
damage the systems components and could be
expensive to repair.
