3.3 Fire and Explosion Prevention 

The fuel used by the engine of the loader, most lubricant 

and some coolant are combustibles. It is very dangerous when

 Do not leak the fuel on hot surface or electric components; 

otherwise may cause fire.   

 When fill fuel, the engine must be stopped. Do not smoke 

when filling fuel or at the fuel-filling area.     

Explosive gas will be generated around the storage battery; 

keep flames away. Maintain and use storage battery in strict compliance with the instructions in 

the product manual. Do not smoke at places where storage battery is being charged or where 

combustibles are stored.     

 Fasten the lids of containers in which the above stated combustible liquid is stored.   

 Put the combustible liquid in protective containers and keep them at safe place. They shall 

be stored by categories and marked accordingly. Prevent them from being used by non-staff 

people.  

 Put oily cloth and other combustibles in protective containers and keep them at safe place.   

 Remove combustibles accumulated on the machine, such as fuel, lubricant and other 

fragments.  

 Do not conduct welding or flame cutting operation on tubes or boxes containing 

combustible liquid. Before welding or cutting, must clean with fire-resistant fluid when 

these operations have to be done.     

 During the operation of the machine, when the exhaust outlet of the engine muffler is close 

to dry grass, waste paper or other combustibles, special care shall be taken. Do not place 

the machine at places with flames or burning bushes when it is practical.   

 When parking the machine, take care to select parking place and avoid the high temperature 

parts like the engine muffler close to combustibles.   

 Clean and fasten all electrode terminals. Check for loose or worn wires everyday. Before
