WARNING
To prevent serious injury from hot, high pressure oil,
never use your hands to check for oil leaks, use paper
or cardboard.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate skin. If 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.

wet hoses or oil spots and replace worn or
damaged hoses and tubes before operating the
machine.

brake and remove key. Place key in a secure
location to prevent unauthorized use of equipment.
