gine is running, be sure to stop the engine prior to
the work.

for industrial use (avoid using gasoline so to pre-
vent environmental pollution). For the hydraulic
parts, apply designated hydraulic oil in washing.

draulic apparatus, pay special attention not to al-
low dust or foreign substance to be attached or

tently in a height of 3 ~ 5 mm (0.12 ~ 0.2 in.) on the
