Safety
WARNING
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury. Fluid accidentally injected into the skin 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 hoses and lines are in good condition and all hydraulic connections and fittings are tight before applying pressure to hydraulic system.
•Keep body and hands away from pinhole leaks or nozzles that eject high pressure hydraulic fluid.
•Use cardboard or paper, not your hands, to find hydraulic leaks.
•Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic system by placing the motion control levers in neutral and shutting off the engine before performing any work on the hydraulic system.
