2.8.13 RULES TO BE FOLLOWED WHEN
REFUELLING OR ADDING OIL
q
Keep away from naked flames while refuelling or adding oil.
q
Spilled fuel or oil make the ground slippery and may cause acci-
dents; clean any dirty area immediately and carefully.
q
Always tighten the safety caps of the fuel tank and of the hy-
draulic oil tank securely.
q
Do not use fuel to clean any part of the machine that is dirty with
oil or dust.
q
Always top up the fuel and oil tanks in properly ventilated areas
and refrain from smoking.
q
When refuelling, hold the fuel gun firmly and keep it constantly
in contact with the filler until you have finished, in order to avoid
sparks due to static electricity.
q
Do not fill the tank completely, in order to leave room for the fuel
to expand.
2.8.14 CHECKING THE COOLANT LEVEL IN
THE RADIATOR
q
Let the engine and the radiator cool down before checking the
coolant level.
q
If it is necessary to remove the cap with hot engine, wear suita-
ble clothes and protections and loosen the cap slowly, in order
to release the pressure gradually.
2.8.15 USING LAMPS
q
When checking the fuel, oil, coolant or battery electrolyte level,
always use homologated explosion-proof lamps.
If such lamps are not used, there is danger of fire or explosion.
