Tire Safety
Tire changing can be dangerous and
should be performed by trained per-
sonnel using correct tools and equip-
ment.
▲ When inflating tires, use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose long
enough to allow you to stand to
one side–not in front of or over tire
assembly. Use a safety cage if
available.
▲ When removing and installing
wheels, use wheel-handling
equipment adequate for weight
involved.
Wear
Protective Equipment
▲ Wear protective clothing and
equipment.
▲ Wear clothing and equipment
appropriate for the job. Avoid
loose-fitting clothing.
▲ Because prolonged exposure to
loud noise can cause hearing
impairment or hearing loss, wear
suitable hearing protection such
as earmuffs or earplugs.
▲ Because operating equipment
safely requires your full attention,
avoid wearing radio headphones
while operating machinery.
Avoid High
Pressure Fluids Hazard
Escaping fluid under pressure can
penetrate
skin, causing serious
injury.
▲ Avoid the hazard by relieving
pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic lines.
▲ Use a piece of paper or card-
board, NOT BODY PARTS, to
check for suspected leaks.
▲ Wear protective gloves and safety
glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems.
▲ If an accident occurs, see a doc-
tor immediately. Any fluid injected
into the skin must be surgically
removed within a few hours or
gangrene may result.

manual before operating implement.
Refer to Safety Decals, page 4. Read
all instructions noted on decals.

functions.

ing area.
