1.6 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Following are general safety statements to consider before performing maintenance procedures on the telehandler. Additional statements related to specific tasks and procedures are located throughout this manual and are listed prior to any work instructions to provide safety information before the potential of a hazard occurs.
For all safety messages, carefully read, understand and follow the instructions before

1.6.1 Personal Hazards

PERSONAL SAFETY GEAR: Wear all the protective clothing and personal safety gear necessary to perform the job safely. This might include heavy gloves, safety glasses or goggles, filter mask or respirator, safety shoes or a hard hat.
LIFTING: NEVER lift a heavy object without the help of at least one assistant or a suitable sling and hoist.

1.6.2 Equipment Hazards

LIFTING OF EQUIPMENT: Before using any lifting equipment (chains, slings, brackets, hooks, etc.), verify that it is of the proper capacity, in good working order, and is properly attached.
NEVER stand or otherwise become positioned under a suspended load or under raised equipment. The load or equipment could fall or tip.
DO NOT use a hoist, jack or jack stands only to support equipment. Always support equipment with the proper capacity blocks or stands properly rated for the load.

Safety Practices

1.6.3 General Hazards

SOLVENTS: Only use approved solvents that are known to be safe for use.
HOUSEKEEPING: Keep the work area and operator’s cab clean, and remove all hazards (debris, oil, tools, etc.).
FIRST AID: Immediately clean, dress and report all injuries (cuts, abrasions, burns, etc.), no matter how minor the injury may seem. Know the location of a First Aid Kit, and know how to use it.
CLEANLINESS: Wear eye protection, and clean all components with a high-pressure or steam cleaner before attempting service.
When removing hydraulic components, plug hose ends and connections to prevent excess leakage and contamination. Place a suitable catch basin beneath the machine to capture fluid run-off.
Check and obey all Federal, State and/or Local regulations regarding waste storage, disposal and recycling.

1.6.4 Operational Hazards

ENGINE: Stop the engine before performing any service unless specifically instructed otherwise.
VENTILATION: Avoid prolonged engine operation in enclosed areas without adequate ventilation.
SOFT SURFACES AND SLOPES: NEVER work on a machine that is parked on a soft surface or slope. The machine must be on a hard level surface, with the wheels blocked before performing any service.
FLUID TEMPERATURE: NEVER work on a machine when the engine, cooling or hydraulic systems are hot. Hot components and fluids can cause severe burns. Allow systems to cool before proceeding.
FLUID PRESSURE: Before loosening any hydraulic or diesel fuel component, hose or tube, turn the engine OFF. Wear heavy, protective gloves and eye protection. NEVER check for leaks using any part of your body; use a piece of cardboard or wood instead. If injured, seek medical attention immediately. Diesel fluid leaking under pressure can explode. Hydraulic fluid and diesel fuel leaking under pressure can penetrate the skin, cause infection, gangrene and other serious personal injury.
Relieve all pressure before disconnecting any component, part, line or hose. Slowly loosen parts and allow release of residual pressure before removing any part or component. Before starting the engine or applying pressure, use components, parts, hoses and pipes that are in good condition, connected properly and are tightened to the proper torque. Capture fluid in an
appropriate container and dispose of in accordance with prevailing environmental regulations.
RADIATOR CAP: The cooling system is under pressure, and escaping coolant can cause severe burns and eye injury. To prevent personal injury, NEVER remove the radiator cap while the cooling system is hot. Wear safety glasses. Turn the radiator cap to the first stop and allow pressure to escape before removing the cap completely. Failure to follow the safety practices could result in death or serious injury.
FLUID FLAMABILTITY: DO NOT service the fuel or hydraulic systems near an open flame, sparks or smoking materials.
NEVER drain or store fluids in an open container. Engine fuel and hydraulic fluid are flammable and can cause a fire and/or explosion.
DO NOT mix gasoline or alcohol with diesel fuel. The mixture can cause an explosion.
PRESSURE TESTING: When conducting any test, only use test equipment that is correctly calibrated and in good condition. Use the correct equipment in the proper manner, and make changes or repairs as indicated by the test procedure to achieve the desired result.
LEAVING MACHINE: Lower the forks or attachment to the ground before leaving the machine.
TIRES: Always keep tires inflated to the proper pressure to help prevent tipover. DO NOT over-inflate tires.
NEVER use mismatched tire types, sizes or ply ratings. Always use matched sets according to machine specifications.
MAJOR COMPONENTS: Never alter, remove, or substitute any items such as counterweights, tires, batteries or other items that may reduce or affect the overall weight or stability of the machine.
BATTERY: DO NOT charge a frozen battery.Charging a frozen battery may cause it to explode. Allow the battery to thaw before jump-starting or connecting a battery charger.

3.2 BOOM SYSTEM - FOUR SECTION

3.2.1 Boom System Operation

The four section boom consists of the first, second, third and fourth assemblies with double third and fourth section extend chains, a double third section retract chain and a single fourth section retract chain.
As the extend/retract cylinder, which is anchored at the front of the second boom section, and the rear of the first boom section begins to extend, it forces the second boom section out of the first boom section.
The boom sections are connected by extend and retract chains. These chains are routed around sheaves on the second and third boom sections. As the second section is forced out hydraulically, the third and fourth boom sections are pulled out by the extend chains.
As hydraulic pressure is applied to the retract port on the extend/retract cylinder, the second boom section is pulled back into the first boom section, and the retract chain pulls the third and fourth boom sections back into the second boom section.
This mechanical linkage formed by the chains and supporting hardware, extends and retracts the third and fourth boom sections at the same rate.
The boom section lifts and lowers via action of the lift/ lower cylinder.

3.3 BOOM ASSEMBLY MAINTENANCE

These instructions must be completed in sequence. The second, third and fourth boom sections are removed from the first boom section. The third and fourth boom sections are removed from the second boom section. The fourth boom section is removed from the third boom section.
