Â
Never perform welding or work that gives off heat
on an assembled tire. The heat would increase the
tire pressure, which could cause the tire to explode.
Â
If the telescopic handler is equipped with an elec-
tronic control unit, disconnect this before starting
to weld, to avoid the risk of causing permanent
damage to electronic components.
WASHING THE TELESCOPIC HANDLER
Â
Clean the telescopic handler or at least the area
concerned before any servicing.
Â
Remember to close and lock all accesses to the
telescopic handler (door, window, …).
Â
During washing, avoid the pinch points and elec-
trical components and connections.
Â
If necessary, protect components susceptible to
being damaged, against the penetration of water,
steam or cleaning agents, particularly electrical
components and connections and the injection
pump.
Â
Clean the telescopic handler of any fuel, oil or
grease and grime.
IMPORTANT:
For any service other than regular
maintenance, consult your dealer.
