WARNING
Risk of fire - Make sure the
battery is secured against
movement.
The insulators of
cables of a moving battery may get
damaged, causing risk of fire,
short-circuit, and sparks. A moving
battery can also short-circuit due to
contact between battery pole and
the frame of the loader. Battery
can get damaged due to
movements. Always ensure that
the battery is securely fastened
from its base flange. Keep the
battery and its surrounding area
clean so that dirt or other material
does not damage the battery.
Check electric cables of the loader
Check other electric cables and their routing and
fastening. If you see signs of damage on electric
cables or components, stop using the loader and
disconnect the battery. Replace the cables and
insulators before you continue to use the loader.
1.
Make sure that the cables in the engine
compartment cannot chafe against any sharp
edges. Correct the routing and fastening of
cables, if necessary. Replace damaged
cables.
2.
Check how the cables are routed through the
articulation joint of the loader. The cables
should not be pinned in between hydraulic
hoses, and the cables should not chafe
against other parts of the loader.
3.
Check cables for signs of aging and wear. If
a cable or its insulation has damaged, worn,
or become brittle, there is an increased risk
of short-circuit and fire.
4.
Check the condition and fastening of the
battery disconnect switch and its cables.
When the battery disconnect switch is in
position OFF, turn the ignition key to test the
disconnect switch. If the disconnect switch is
damaged, disconnect battery cables
immediately and replace the switch.
15.
Check cab air filter
If the loader is equipped with an enclosed cab
A replaceable cab air filter can be changed from
outside the cab, under the door on the left side (see
picture above). The cartridge should be checked and
changed more often when operating the loader in
dusty conditions.
Clean the housing of the filter and make sure dust
and dirt will not enter the air ducts.
Check that the air filter fits tightly and makes a good
seal with its casing. If there are signs of dust entering
the ducts after the filter, the air ducts must be
cleaned, and a new filter must be installed making
sure that its seal makes good contact with its casing.
DANGER
Risk of severe illness from
exposure to dust - Never use the
loader if the cab air filter is
removed.
Make sure that a cab air
filter is correctly installed to reduce
exposure to dust. Consider using a
breathing mask in dusty conditions.
