2.8 PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE
2.8.1 WARNING PLATES
q Before starting any maintenance operation, position the
machine on a firm and level surface, lower the equipment to the
ground, engage the safety locks of the equipment and the
controls, and stop the engine.
q If another person starts the engine and operates the control
levers while the operator is servicing the machine, this may
result in serious injury or even death.
q To avoid these risks, always attach warning plates to the control
levers and to the ignition key before performing any
maintenance operation; if necessary, attach additional warning
tags also around the machine and in particular to the cab door
handles.
2.8.2 TOOLS
q Use only the tools supplied together with the machine and high-
quality tools suitable for the tasks to be performed.
q Do not use worn, damaged, low-quality tools or tools that are
not suitable for the tasks to be performed, in order to avoid any
personal injury.
2.8.3 MAINTENANCE STAFF
q Any maintenance operation must be carried out exclusively by authorized and duly trained staff; specific and
personal protection measures must be adopted when grinding, welding and when using sledges or heavy
hammers.
q When assembling the equipment or cylinder connection pins, use wooden, plastic or in any case not excessively
hard tools to check the centering of the holes.
Avoid using your fingers, since the may be injured or even cut off.
