In case of accidental ingestion of electrolyte, drink
copious amounts of water, milk or vegetable oil and
take antacids such as magnesium, bicarbonate,
etc.. and seek medical attention immediately.
16 - Before working on the electrical systems, always
disconnect the battery terminals.
IMPORTANT!
Always disconnect the negative terminal (--) first and
then the positive terminal (+); when re-connecting
the battery on completion of the work, first connect
the positive terminal (+) and then the negative (--).
17 - Before carrying out any arc welding, on the tractor,
always disconnect the battery terminals and unplug
all the connectors of the electronic control units and
the alternator.
18 - When topping up lubricants, always wear suitable
protective gloves.
19 - Do not wear clothing contaminated by engine or hy-
draulic oil; prolonged contact with the skin can be
harmful and may cause allergic reactions.
20 - Used engine oil and hydraulic oil must be disposed
of in a proper manner; recover used lubricants and
dispose of them in accordance with the applicable
regulations.
21 - Before carrying out any work on the hydraulic or
pneumatic systems, discharge all residual pressure
from the circuits.
22 - Before carrying out any work on the hydraulic system
or engine, allow the oil and engine coolant to cool
down.
23 - When removing and refitting certain assemblies, it
will be necessary to support the machine; use
stands, jacks or blocks capable of supporting the
weight and arrange them in a triangular pattern to
prevent the machine from overturning.
24 - To lift heavy components, use a hoist or crane.
Check that wire ropes, chains or fibre slings are not
worn and that hooks are not damaged.
25 - Always use lifting equipment of suitable capacity for
the weight of the components to be removed. Ensure
lifting equipment is attached correctly.
26 - When lifting or supporting an assembly or compo-
nent, manoeuvre the parts slowly and carefully to
avoid oscillation or collision with other components.
27 - Never work on components suspended from a hoist
or crane.
28 - When removing the retaining bolts of a component
that could fall, always leave two opposing bolts in
place for safety; before removing these last two
bolts, attach the component to suitable lifting equip-
ment or position support blocks.
29 - Any oil or fuel spilled during removal or dismantling
operations should be cleaned up as soon as possible
to prevent the risk of slipping and fire.
30 - When refitting electrical cables and wires, ensure
that they are secured with their original retaining
straps or brackets to prevent the possibility of dam-
age caused by vibration.
31 - Never insert your fingers or hands to check the align-
ment between fixing holes in components; always
use a suitable dowel of soft material.
32 - When refitting assemblies or components, always
use the specified tightening torques; the tightening
torques indicated in the paragraphs regarding as-
sembly/refitting operations have been determined
through experimentation and must be scrupulously
adhered to.
33 - When refitting parts that are subject to vibration or
that rotate at high speed, take particular care when
carrying final installation checks.
