HAZARD ALERTS
Hydraulic fluids are under high pressure. Fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Relieve all pressure before disconnecting hoses. Do not use your hand to check for hydraulic leaks. If any fluid is injected into the skin, a doctor must surgically remove it within a few hours or gangrene may set in.
Do not attempt to repair or modify the compactor unless you are a qualified service technician. Read and understand your owner's manuals. Failure to follow the instructions or heed the warnings could result in severe personal injury or death. Proper care is your responsibility. Contact your distributor or BTI for replacement parts.
Some compactor components are heavy or awkward, plan carefully how you will handle them when installing, removing, or disassembling.
