Avoid the work of adding hydraulic oil, replacing filters, or repairing the machine in rainy or windy weather, or in
dusty environment.

Plug the removed pipes and the openings of the removed components with the caps, tapes, plastic bags, etc. to
prevent foreign material from entering.
NOTICE
Do not expose the openings or stuff it, otherwise foreign
material may enter or leaked oil may pollute the environ-
ment.
Do not discard the oil inconsiderately. Ask the customer
for disposal or bring it back to dispose it appropriately.

If any dirt or dust sticks the parts of the fuel system, clean it off thoroughly with clean fuel.
