Handling of fuel and oil products:
Do not let any oil leak on the ground.
Use oil qualities recommended by the manufacturer. Do not mix different oil
types and/or brands with each other.
When handling oil always wear appropriate protective equipment.
Before refueling always stop the engine/electric motor and disconnect from
mains current.
Only use fuels recommended by the engine manufacturer. Do not mix any
additives with the fuel.
If fuel or oil gets into eyes, mouth or open wound, clean immediately with a lot
of water or designated fluid and call a doctor.
Check hydraulic hoses and components only when the engine is stopped and
with pressure released from the hydraulic system. Do not operate the machine if
you have noticed faults or leaks in hydraulic system. Ejection of hydraulic fluid
can cause burns or penetrate the skin and cause serious injuries. Consult a
doctor immediately if hydraulic fluid penetrates your skin. Wash carefully with
water and soap any body part that has come in contact with hydraulic oil.
Hydraulic oil is also harmful to the environment
– prevent oil leakages. Only use
hydraulic oil type approved by the manufacturer.
Never
handle
pressurized
hydraulic
components, because in case of failure of a
fitting or component ejection of high pressure
hydraulic fluid can cause tipping over of the
machine and serious injuries. Do not operate
the machine if you have noticed a fault in the
hydraulic system.
Check hydraulic hoses for eventual cracks and wear. Follow the wear of the
hoses and stop operation if the outer layer of any hose has worn out. Check
routing of the hoses, adjust the hose clamps if necessary in order to prevent
chafing. Hydraulic hoses have finite service life and the expiration date is marked
on the hoses. After that they have to be changed. If there are signs of oil
leakage, put a piece of cardboard under the probable leakage place in order to
find the leakage.
If you find a fault, operation of the access platform must be stopped immediately
and the hose or the component must be replaced. Contact Leguan service.
