SAFETY WHILE SERVICING
The following maintenance section gives suggested guidelines for operational maintenance on
your machine. It is not intended for use as a service manual.
In severe conditions (extreme dust, heat, cold, humidity, etc.) you will need to service your machine
more often. Your experience will dictate a more severe servicing program.
Safety while servicing your machine is your responsibility.
Only qualified and authorized personnel
should be permitted to maintain, repair, adjust and inspect machine.
Read and understand warnings and safety precautions in Safety Summary and elsewhere in this
manual before doing any service on machine.
The following precautions should be used as a reminder
to safe servicing.

Lower boom to ground.
Ÿ
Shut down machine to a zero energy state.
Ÿ
Remove key from ignition.
Ÿ
Disengage servo lever.
Ÿ
Allow machine to cool.
Ÿ
Relieve all hydraulic pressure.
Ÿ
Disconnect battery using battery disconnect
switch.
Ÿ
Remove, block or guard against body contact
with all other sources of hazardous pressure,
temperature, electricity, or machine motion.
Ÿ
Ensure machine, boom or attachment are not
supported on props that may collapse.
Ÿ
Ensure boom and attachment are grounded.
Always shut down the machine and lower the boom
and attachment to the ground before working on the

If necessary to work on a lifted boom or
attachment, securely support the boom and attachment so
that they cannot move or fall in any way.

tiles, or props that may crumble under a load.
Do not
work under a machine that is supported solely by a jack.
Don't leave loose tools and rags on the machine.
Ensure that all walking and climbing surfaces are clean.
Handle fuel carefully.
Do not smoke while filling fuel tank
or working near fuel. Refer to Fluid Specifications
whenever replacing oils, fluids, or filling fuel tank.
Do not weld on any structural member unless
specifically authorized by Barko Hydraulics.
Any
unauthorized welding or welding procedures will void the
warranty, and may cause death, severe injury, property
damage or structural damage to the machine.
Check the Hour Meter regularly to determine when
the machine needs periodic maintenance.
Use the
intervals on the Service Schedule except when operating
in extreme conditions; then shorter intervals must be used.
Under no circumstances should any modifications be
made to Barko machinery without factory
authorization.
Any modification may void the warranty.
This machine was designed to do a specific job and
