T2-025_4
The following checks should be made each time you return
to the machine after leaving it for any period of time. We
advise you also to stop the machine occasionally during
long work sessions and do the checks again.
All these checks concern the serviceability of the machine.
Some concern your safety. Get your service engineer to
check and correct any defects.
!MWARNING
Walking or working under raised attachments can be
hazardous. You could be crushed by the attachments
or get caught in the linkages.
Lower the attachments to the ground before doing
these checks. If you are new to this machine, get an
experienced operator to lower them for you.
If there is nobody to help you, study this manual until
you have learned how to lower the attachments. Also
make sure that the park brake is engaged before doing
these checks.
