Keep body and hands away from pin holes or nozzles
that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard and not hands to search for leaks.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under high pressure may
have sufficient force to penetrate skin and cause serious injury. If foreign fluid is injected into the skin, it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result.
Make sure all hydraulic fluid connections are tight and
all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before starting the machine.
Hydraulic fluid is under high pressure. If you need
service on your hydraulic system, please see your authorized Scag dealer.
