Safety Precautions
SERVICE & MAINTENANCE SAFETY
Maintenance work can be hazardous if not done in a careful manner. All personnel should
realize the hazards and strictly follow safe maintenance practices. Failure to comply with these
safety precautions may result in serious personal injury and/or death.
• Use only BOXER supplied or approved replacement parts. Imitation parts may lead to unit
damage and/or injury to personnel. Warranty may be voided if unauthorized parts and are
used.
• Wear the proper protective clothing and personal safety equipment necessary to perform the
maintenance or service required.
• Keep the machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris build-up.
• Clean up oil or fuel spillage.
Fuel or oil leaks or spills can create a fire or explosion hazard.
• Prior to performing maintenance or service, park the unit in a level area away from
obstructions and/or work site hazards.
• Be sure the area has adequate light and is well ventilated. NEVER operate the machine
inside a closed area.
• Clean-up any oil, grease, mud, water, or snow which might cause the floor surface to become
slippery.
• If the machine requires maintenance, take the machine out of service and attach a "Do Not
Operate" tag at the control panel and remove the ignition key.
• If maintenance or repairs require the boom to be raised, securely support the boom.
• Know where all pinch points and rotating parts on the unit are. These areas must be avoided
to prevent serious injury.
• Remove only those guards or covers on the component being serviced and replace them
immediately upon completion of the work.
• Never attempt to adjust or service engine or machine components while they are hot.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAZARDS
• Prior to working on the electrical system:
– Disconnect battery cables, removing the battery ground cable first.
– When re-connecting the battery, connect the battery ground cable last.
– Never allow battery cables to contact hydraulic lines or rub against sharp edges.
