SAFETY
Do not operate this equipment with hydraulic oil or fuel

could present a hazard. Do not check for leaks with your
hand! High-pressure oil streams from breaks in the line
could penetrate the skin and cause tissue damage including
gangrene. To check for a hose leak, SHUT the ENGINE OFF and
remove all hydraulic pressure. Wear oil impenetrable gloves, safety
glasses and use Cardboard to check for evidence of oil leaks. If you
suspect a leak, REMOVE the HOSE and have it tested at a Dealer.
If oil does penetrate the skin, have the injury treated
immediately by a physician knowledgeable and skilled in
this procedure.
