Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or hot components to contact skin. |
Pressurized System. Hydraulic oil escaping under pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious injury or death. Do not operate the power pack with leaking or damaged hydraulic components. Open the breather filter slowly to release the pressure inside the reservoir. Wear protective equipment. If oil contacts the eye, flush immediately with clean water and seek medical treatment. Malfunctioning or leaking threaded fittings, hose connections, and pressure lines must be immediately repaired by a Cat dealer (search for hydraulic leaks with a piece of cardboard). |
