SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
MAINTENANCE
Your dealer can supply original equipment hydraulic accessories and repair parts. Substitute parts may not meet original equipment specifica- tions and may be dangerous.
To prevent contamination during maintenance and storage, clean and then cover hose ends, fit- tings, and hydraulic ports with tape.
Do not operate the pump with pressure over 3000 psi. Higher pressures can rupture hydraulic components and can cause personal injury.
Adjustment of system relief pressure must be done by a qualified, experienced dealer. Incorrect adjustment can result in system failures and seri- ous personal injury.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy,
Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper- ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic- ing equipment.

Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and secured. Never place any part of the body under- neath equipment or between moveable parts even when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or movement of control levers
