Fuel, Oil and Hydraulic Fluid Fire Hazards
Fuel, oil and antifreeze will catch fire if it is brought close to a flame. Fuel
is particularly flammable and can be hazardous.
Always strictly observe the following.
Add fuel, oil, antifreeze and hydraulic fluid to the machine only in a well
ventilated area. The machine must be parked with controls, lights and
switches turned "OFF." The engine must be "OFF" and any flames,
glowing embers, auxiliary heating units or spark causing equipment must
be doused, turned "OFF" and/or kept well clear of the machine.
Static electricity can produce dangerous sparks at the fuel filling nozzle.
In very cold, dry weather or other conditions that could produce a static
discharge, keep the tip of the fuel nozzle in constant contact with the
neck of the fuel filling nozzle, to provide a ground.
Keep fuel and other fluid reservoir caps tight and do not start the
engine until caps have been secured.
Figure 4
15
Precautions When Handling Fluids at High Temperature
Immediately after operations are stopped, the coolant, engine oil,
and hydraulic oil are at high temperature and the radiator and
hydraulic tank are still under pressure. Attempting to remove the
cap, drain the oil or coolant, or replace the filters may lead to serious
burns. Always wait for the temperature to go down, and follow the
specified procedures when carrying out these operations.
Figure 5
To prevent hot coolant from spurting out, shut down engine, wait for the
coolant to cool, then loosen the cap slowly to relieve the pressure.
To prevent hot oil from spurting out, shut down engine, wait for the
oil to cool, then loosen the cap slowly to relieve the pressure.
Figure 6
Asbestos Dust Hazard Prevention
Asbestos dust can be HAZARDOUS to your health if it is inhaled.
Materials containing asbestos fiber can be present on work site.
Breathing air that contains asbestos fiber can ultimately cause serious or
fatal lung damage. To prevent lung damage from asbestos fiber, observe
following precautions:
• Use a respirator that is approved for use in an asbestos-laden
atmosphere.
• Never use compressed air for cleaning.
Figure 7
• Use water for cleaning to keep down the dust.
• Work on the machine or component with the wind at your back
whenever possible.
• Always observe any rules and regulations related to the work site
and working environment.
16
Injury from Work Equipment
Do not enter or put your hand, arm or any other part of your body
between movable parts, such as between the work equipment and
cylinders, or between the machine and work equipment.
If the control levers are operated, the clearance between the machine
and the work equipment will change and this may lead to serious
damage or personal injury.
If going between movable parts is necessary, always position and secure
the work equipment so that it cannot move.
Figure 8
Fire Extinguisher and First Aid Kit
As a precaution if any injury or fire should occur, always do the following.
• Be sure that fire extinguishers have been provided and read the
labels to ensure that you know now to use them. It is
recommended that an appropriately sized multipurpose "A/B/C"
fire extinguisher be mounted in the cabin. Check and service the
fire extinguisher at regular intervals and make sure that all work
site crew members are adequately trained in its use.
• Provide a first aid kit in the storage compartment and keep
another at the work site. Check the kit periodically and make any
additions if necessary.
Figure 9
• Know what to do in case of injury from fire.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance service, hospital
and fire department near your telephone.
If the machine catches fire, it may lead to serious personal injury or
death. If a fire occurs during operation, escape from the machine as
follows:
• Turn the starter switch to the "O" (OFF) position and shut down
engine.
• If there is time, use the fire extinguisher to extinguish as much of
the fire as possible.
• Use the handrails and steps to escape from the machine.
The above is the basic method for escaping from the machine, but
changing the method may be necessary according to the conditions,
so carry out practice skills at the work site.
17
Protection from Falling or Flying Objects
On work sites where there is danger that falling objects or flying
objects may hit the operator selected a guard to match the
operating conditions to protect the operator.
Working in mines, tunnels, deep pits or on loose or wet surfaces
could produce danger of falling rock or hazardous flying objects.
Additional protection for the operator safety could be required.
Never attempt to alter or modify any type of protective structure
reinforcement system, by drilling holes, welding, remounting or
relocating fasteners. Any serious impact or damage to the system
Figure 10
requires a complete integrity reevaluation. Reinstallation,
recertification and/or replacement of the system may be necessary.
Contact your EVERDIGM distributor for available safety guards
and/or recommendations if there is any danger of getting hit by
objects that could strike the operator's cabin. Make sure that all
other work site crew members are kept well away from the drill rig
and safe from possible hazards.
When working in mines or quarries where there is danger of falling
rock, install FOPS (Falling Objects Protective Structure) and apply
a laminated coating sheet to the front glass.
If any glass on the machine is broken, replace it with new
glass immediately.
Figure 11
Accumulator
The pilot control system is equipped with an accumulator. For a brief
period of time after the engine has been shut down, the accumulator
will store a pressure charge that may enable hydraulic controls to be
activated. Activation of any controls may enable the selected function
to operate under force of gravity.
When performing maintenance on the pilot control system, the
hydraulic pressure in the system must be released as describe in
"Handling of Accumulator" in the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
The accumulator is charged with high-pressure nitrogen gas, so it is
extremely dangerous if it is handled in the wrong way. Always observe
the following precautions:
• Do not drill or make any holes in the accumulator or expose it
any flame, fire or heat source.
• Do not weld on the accumulator, or try attaching anything to it.
• When carrying out disassembly or maintenance of the
accumulator, or when disposing of the accumulator, the charged
gas must be properly released. Contact your EVERDIGM
distributor.
• Wear safety goggles and protective gloves when working on an
accumulator. Hydraulic oil under pressure can penetrate the skin
and cause serious injuries
18
Ventilation on closed area
Engine exhaust gases can cause fatal accidents, and unconsciousness,
loss of alertness, judgment and motor control and serious injury.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation before starting the engine in any
enclosed area.
You should also be aware of open windows, doors or ductwork into
which exhaust may be carried, or blown by the wind, exposing others to
danger.
Figure 12
WARNING!
Protect your eyes when breaking the glass.
19
1.10 Before Starting Engine Safety
Work Site Precautions
Before starting operations, thoroughly check the area for any unusual
conditions that could be dangerous.
Check the terrain and condition of the ground at the work site, and
determine the best and safest method of operation.
Make the ground surface as hard and horizontal as possible before
carrying out operations. If there is a lot of dust and sand on the work
site, spray water before starting operations.
If you need to operate on a street, protect pedestrians and cars by
Figure 13
designating a person for work site traffic duty or by erecting fences
and posting "No Entry" signs around the work site.
Erect fences, post "No Entry" signs, and take other steps to prevent
people from coming close to or entering the work site. If people come
close to a moving machine, they may be hit or caught by the machine,
and this may lead to serious personal injury or death.
Water lines, gas lines, phone lines and high voltage electrical lines
may be buried under the work site. Contact each utility and identify
their locations. Be careful not to damage or cut any of these lines.
Any type of object in the vicinity of the boom could represent a
potential hazard, or cause the operator to react suddenly and cause
an accident. Use a spotter or signal person working near bridges,
phone lines, work site scaffolds, or other obstructions.
Minimum levels of insurance coverage, work permits or certification,
physical barriers around the work site or restricted hours of operation
may be mandated by governing authorities. There may also be
Figure 14
regulations, guidelines, standards or restrictions on equipment that
may have to be followed for local requirements. There may also be
regulations related to performing certain kinds of work. If there is any
question about whether your machine and work site complies with the
applicable standards and regulations contact your local authorities
and agencies.
Avoid entering soft ground. It will be difficult for the machine to
escape.
Avoid operating your machine to close to the edge of cliffs, overhangs,
and deep ditches. The ground may be weak in such areas. If the
ground should collapse, the machine could fall or tip over and this
could result in serious injury or death.
Remember that the soil after heavy rain, blasting or after earthquakes,
is weakened in these areas.
Earth laid on the ground and the soil near ditches is loose. It can
collapse under the weight of vibration of your machine and cause your
machine to tip over.
Install the special guards if working in areas where there is danger of
falling rocks.
Figure 15
20
Checks Before Starting Engine
Every day before starting the engine for the first time, carry out the
following checks. If these checks are not carried out properly, there is
danger of serious injury.
Completely remove all wood chips, leaves, grass, paper and other
flammable materials accumulated in the engine compartment and
around the battery. They could cause a fire. Remove any dirt from the
window glass, mirrors, handrails, and steps.
Do not leave tools or spare parts laying around in the operator's
compartment. The vibration of the machine when traveling or during
operations may cause them to fall and damage or break the control
levers or switches. They may also get caught in the gap of the control
levers and cause the work equipment to malfunction or move
dangerously. This may lead to unexpected accidents.
Check the coolant level, fuel level, lubrication oil level and hydraulic
tank oil level, and check for clogged air cleaner and damage to the
electrical wiring.
Check the step condition where operator will stand and it is easy to
operate the machine.
Check the operation of the gauges, operation levers and switches.
If any abnormalities are found in the above checks, carry out repairs
immediately
Engine Starting
Walk around your machine before getting in the operating area. Look
for evidence of leaking fluid, loose fasteners, misaligned assemblies
or any other indications of possible equipment hazard.
All equipment covers and machinery safety guards must be in place,
to protect against injury while the machine is being operated.
Look around the work site area for potential hazards, people or
properly that could be at risk while operation is in progress.
NEVER start the engine if there is any indication that maintenance or
service work is in progress, or if a warning tag is attached to controls
in the cabin.
A machine that has not been used recently, or is being operated in
extremely cold temperatures, could require a warm-up or maintenance
service before start-up.
Check gauges and monitor displays for normal operation before
starting the engine. Listen for unusual noises and remain alert for
other potentially hazardous conditions at the start of the work cycle.
Do not short circuit the starting motor to start the engine. This is not
only dangerous, but may also damage the machine.
When starting the engine, sound the horn as an alert.
Start and operate the machine only while all danger factors are
cleared.
21
Before Operating Machine
If checks are not carried out properly after starting the engine, it may
result in a delay in discovering abnormalities in the machine, and this
may lead to personal injury or damage to the machine.
Carry out the checks in an open area where there are no obstructions.
Do not let anyone near the machine when carrying out the checks.
• Check the operating condition of the equipment, and the
actuation of mast control, travel, and rotation head working
conditions.
• Check the machine for any abnormal noise, vibration, heat,
smell, or abnormality with the gauges. Check also for leakage of
air, oil, and fuel.
• If any abnormality is found, repair the problem immediately. If the
machine is used without repairing the problems, it may lead to
unexpected injury or failure.
• Clear all personnel from directly around machine and from the
area.
• Clear all obstacles from the machine's path. Beware of hazards.
• Make sure that the horn, the travel alarm (if equipped), and all
other warning devices are working properly.
• Warm up the engine and hydraulic oil before operating machine.
• Before moving the machine, check the position of
undercarriage. The normal travel position is with idler wheels to
the front under the cabin and the drive sprockets to the rear.
When the undercarriage is in the reversed position, the travel
controls must be operated in opposite directions.
22
1.11 Machine Operation Safety
When Changing Direction of Travel
Before operating the machine or the work equipment, always observe
the following precautions to prevent serious injury or death.
• Start and operate the machine only while seated.
• When changing the direction of travel from forward to reverse or
from reverse to forward, reduce speed early and stop the
machine before changing the direction of travel.
• Sound the horn to warn people in the area.
• Check that there is no one in the area around the machine. There
are blind spots behind the machine, so if necessary, check all
blind spots that there is no one behind the machine before
traveling in reverse.
• When operating in areas that may be hazardous or have poor
visibility, designate a person to direct work site traffic.
• Ensure that no unauthorized person can come within the turning
radius or direction of travel.
Be sure to observe the above precautions even if a travel alarm or
Figure 16
mirrors are installed.
Travel Precautions
Never turn the starting switch to the "O" (OFF) position when
traveling. It is dangerous if the engine stops when the machine is
traveling. It will be impossible to operate the steering.
Place mast on the bonnet firmly not to move mast freely by vibration
during traveling.
Never travel over obstacles or slopes that will cause the machine to tilt
severely. Travel around any slope or obstacle that causes the
machine to tilt 10 degrees or more to the right or left, or 14 degrees or
Figure 17
more from front to rear.
Do not turn machine suddenly. The work equipment may hit the
ground and cause the machine to lose its balance, and this may
damage the machine or structures in the area.
When traveling on rough ground, travel at low speed, and avoid
sudden changes in direction.
Always keep to the permissible water depth. Permissible water depth
is to the center line of the upper track rollers.
When traveling over bridges or structures on private land, check first that
the bridge or structure can withstand the weight of the machine. When
traveling on public roads, check with the local authorities and follow their
instructions.
Figure 18
23
When Changing Direction of Travel
Never jump onto a machine that is running away to stop it. There is
danger of serious injury.
Traveling on slopes could result in the machine tipping over or
slipping.
On hills, banks or slopes, try to balance machine with mast weight
and operation.
Do not travel on grass, fallen leaves, or wet steel plates. Even slight
slopes may cause the machine to slip to the side, so travel at low
speed and make sure that the machine is always traveling directly up
or down the slope.
Avoid changing the direction of travel on a slope. This could result in
tipping or side slipping of the machine.
When possible, operate the machine up slopes and down slopes. Avoid
operating the machine across the slope, when possible.
24
Dangers during Operation
Do not drill the work face under an overhang. This may cause the
overhang to collapse and fall on top of the machine.
Do not place machine on the edge of rock. The ground under the
machine may collapse and cause the machine to fall.
Figure 19
Never relay on lift jacks or other inadequate supports when work is
being done. Block tracks fore and aft to prevent any movement.
When working at the edge of an cliff or on a road shoulder, the machine
could tip over, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. Investigate
the configuration and ground conditions of the work site beforehand to
prevent the machine from falling and to prevent the ground, stockpiles,
or banks from collapsing.
Precautions for Operation
Be careful not to go close to the edge of a cliff by mistake.
Figure 20
Use the machine only for its main purpose. Using it for other purposes
will cause failures.
To ensure an ample view, do as follows:
• When working in dark areas, attach working lights and front lights
to the machine. If necessary, set up lighting at the work site.
• Stop operations when the visibility is poor, such as in fog, mist,
snow, and rain. Wait for the visibility to improve to a level which
causes no problems for the operation.
To avoid hitting the work equipment, always do the following:
• When working in tunnels, on bridges, under electric wires, or
when parking the machine or carrying out other operations in
places with limited height, be extremely careful not to hit the mast
or other parts.
• To prevent collisions, operate the machine at a safe speed when
working in confined spaces, indoors, or in crowded areas.
Figure 21
• Do not pass the mast over the heads of workers or over the
operator's compartment of other machines
25
Avoid High Voltage Cables
Serious injury or death can result from contact or proximity to high
voltage electric lines. The mast does not have to make physical
contact with power lines for current to be transmitted.
Use a spotter and hand signals to stay away from power lines not
clearly visible to the operator.
Voltage
Minimum Safe Distance
6.6 kV
3 m (9' 10")
33.0 kV
4 m (13' 1")
66.0 kV
5 m (16' 5")
Figure 22
154.0 kV
8 m (26' 3")
275.0 kV
10 m (32' 10")
Use these minimum distances as a guideline only. Depending upon
the voltage in the line and atmospheric conditions, strong current
shocks can occur with the boom or mast as far away as 4 - 6 m (13 -
20 ft.) from the power line. Very high voltage and rainy weather could
further decrease that safety margin.
NOTE : Before starting any type of operation near power lines (either
above ground or buried cable type), you should always contact
the power utility directly and work out a safety plan with them.
Parking Machine
In a work site where falling objects or flying objects are expected, be
sure to move machine on the safe place.
In a work site where falling rocks can cause damage and possibly
crush personnel, or in a mining operation, be sure to avoid to danger
situation.
Be sure to put any other additional protective structures required for
work site conditions.
26
Operation on Slopes
When working on slopes. there is danger that the machine may lose
its balance and turn over, when swinging, or when work equipment is
operated. Always carry out these operations carefully.
Do not turn equipment from the uphill side to the downhill side
suddenly. This operation is dangerous.
If the machine has to be used on a slope, pile the soil to make a platform
that will keep the machine as horizontal as possible.
Parking Machine
Figure 23
Avoid making sudden stops, or parking the machine wherever it
happens to be at the end of the work day. Plan ahead so that the drill
rig will be on firm, level ground away from traffic and away from high
walls, cliff edges and any area of potential water accumulation or
runoff.
There should be no possibility of unintended or accidental movement.
When parking on public roads, provide fences, signs, flags, or lights,
and put up any other necessary signs to ensure that passing traffic
can see the machine clearly, and park the machine so that the
machine, flags, and fences do not obstruct traffic.
After retracting the extended boon, putting mast on the firm ground to
an overnight storage position and all switches and operating controls
are in the "OFF" position, the starter key should be removed from the
machine.
Always close the door of the operator's compartment.
Figure 24
27
1.12 Maintenance Safety
Warning Tag
Alert others that service or maintenance is being performed and tag
operator's cabin controls - and other machine areas if required - with a
warning notice.
Figure 25
Clean Before Inspection or Maintenance
Clean the machine before carrying out inspection and maintenance.
This prevents dirt from getting into the machine and also ensures
safety during maintenance.
If inspection and maintenance are carried out when the machine is
dirty, it will become more difficult to locate the problems, and also
there is danger that you may get dirt or mud in your eyes or that you
may slip and injure yourself.
When washing the machine, do the following:
• Wear shoes with nonslip soles to prevent yourself from slipping
and falling on wet places.
• Wear safety glasses and protective clothing when washing the
machine with high-pressure steam.
• Take action to prevent touching high-pressure water and cutting
Figure 26
your skin or having mud fly into your eyes.
• Do not spray water directly on electrical components (sensors,
connector). If water gets into the electrical system, there is
danger that it will cause defective operation and malfunction.
Pick up any tools or hammers that are laying in the work place, wipe up
any grease or oil or any other slippery substances, and clean the area to
make it possible to carry out the operation in safety. If the work place is
left untidy, you may trip or slip and suffer injury.
28
Proper Tools
Use only tools suited to the task. Using damaged, low qualify, faulty, or
makeshift tools could cause personal injury. There is danger that pieces
from, chisels with crushed heads, or hammers, may get into your eyes
and cause blindness.
Figure 27
Use of Lighting
When checking fuel, oil, battery electrolyte, or window washing fluid,
always use lighting with antiexplosion specifications. If such lighting
equipment is not used, there is danger of an explosion.
If work is carried out in dark places without using lighting, it may lead
to injury, so always use proper lighting.
Even if the place is dark, never use a lighter or flame instead of lighting.
There is danger of fire. There is also danger that the battery gas may
catch fire and cause and explosion.
Figure 28
Fire Prevention and Explosion Prevention
All fuels, most lubricants and some coolant mixtures are flammable.
Leaking fuel or fuel that is spilled onto hot surfaces or onto electrical
components can cause a fire.
Store all fuels and all lubricants in properly marked containers and
away from all unauthorized persons.
Store oily rags and other flammable material in a protective container.
Do not smoke while you refuel the machine or while you are in a
refueling area.
Do not smoke in battery charging areas or in areas the contain
flammable material.
Clean all electrical connections and tighten all electrical connections.
Check the electrical wires daily for wires that are loose of frayed.
Figure 29
Tighten all lose electrical wires before you operate the machine.
Repair all frayed electrical wires before you operate the machine.
Remove all flammable materials before they accumulate on the
machine.
Do not weld on pipes or on tubes that contain flammable fluids.
Do not flame cut on pipes or on tubes that contain flammable fluids.
Before you weld on pipes or on tubes or before you flame cut on pipes or
on tubes, clean the pipes or tubes thoroughly with a nonflammable
solvent.
29
Burn Prevention
When checking the radiator coolant level, shut down engine, let the
engine and radiator cool down, then check the coolant recovery tank.
If the coolant level in the coolant recovery tank is near the upper limit,
there is enough coolant in the radiator.
Loosen the radiator cap gradually to release the internal pressure
before removing the radiator cap.
If the coolant level in the coolant recovery tank is below the lower limit,
add coolant.
Cooling system conditioner contains alkali. Alkali can cause personal
injury. Do not allow alkali to contact the skin, the eyes, or the mouth.
Allow cooling system components to cool before you drain the cooling
system.
Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow
hot oil or hot components to contact the skin.
Remove the hydraulic tank filter plug only after the engine has been
stopped. Make sure that the hydraulic tank filter plug is cool before
you remove it with your bare hand. Remove the hydraulic tank filter
plug slowly to relieve pressure.
Relieve all pressure in the hydraulic oil system, in the fuel system, or
in the cooling system before you disconnect any lines, fittings, or
related items.
Batteries give off flammable fumes that can explode.
Figure 30
Do not smoke while you are checking the battery electrolyte levels.
Electrolyte is an acid. Electrolyte can cause personal injury. Do not
allow electrolyte to contact the skin or the eyes.
Always wear protective glasses when you work on batteries.
Welding Repairs
WARNING!
When you connect or disconnect connectors between
ECU and Engine or connector between ECU and the
machine, always disconnect the source power to protect
damage of the ECU.
If you don't observe this procedure, the ECU would be
damaged or the engine would operate abnormally.
When carrying out welding repairs, carry out the welding in a properly
equipped place. The welding should be performed by a qualified worker.
During welding operations, there is the danger of, generation of gas, fire,
or electric shock, so never let an unqualified worker do welding.
30
The qualified welder must do the following:
Figure 11
• To prevent explosion of the battery, disconnect the battery
terminals and remove batteries.
• To prevent generation of gas, remove the paint from the
location of the weld.
• If hydraulic equipment, piping or places close to them are
heated, a flammable gas or mist will be generated and there is
danger of it catching fire. To avoid this, never subject these
places to heat.
• Do not weld on pipes or on tubes that contain flammable
fluids. Do not flame cut on pipes or on tubes that contain
flammable fluids. Before you weld on pipes or on tubes or
before you flame cut on pipes or on tubes, clean the pipes or
tubes thoroughly with a nonflammable solvent.
• If heat is applied directly to rubber hoses or piping under
pressure, they may suddenly break so cover them with a
fireproof covering.
• Wear protective clothing.
• Make sure there is good ventilation.
• Remove all flammable objects and provide a fire extinguisher.
Treatment for Electrical Welding to the Body Structure
To prevent damage to electrical components by electrical welding,
please observe the following procedures:
1. Turn off the master switch
2. Open the door of the battery cover.
3. Detach the cover after loosening the bolts on the battery.
4. Detach the positive and negative terminal cables from the
battery.
5. Proceed with welding.
6. After welding, carefully reassemble the connector.
7. Connect the battery terminal cables.
8. Reassemble the cover over the battery.
10. Turn on the master switch.

Precautions for Removal, Installation of Heavy
Components
Before starting removal and installation of heavy components, decide
the team leader.
Do not allow anyone except the authorized workers close to the
machine.
Place components that have been removed from the machine in a safe
place so that they do not fall. Put up a fence around the components and
take other measures to prevent unauthorized persons from entering.
Figure 32
Precautions When Working on Machine
When carrying out maintenance operations on the machine, keep the
area around your feet clean and tidy to prevent you from falling.
Always do the following:
• Do not spill oil or grease.
• Do not leave tools laying about.
• Watch your step when walking.
Never jump down from the machine. When getting on or off the
machine, use the steps and handrails, and maintain a three point
contact (both feet and one hand or both hands and one foot) to
support yourself securely.
If the job requires it, wear protective clothing.
Figure 33
To prevent injury from slipping or falling, when working on the hood or
covers, never use any part except the inspection passage fitted with
nonslip pads.
Lock Inspection Covers
When carrying out maintenance with the inspection cover open, lock
the cover securely in position with the lock bar.
If maintenance work is carried out with the inspection cover open but
not locked, there is danger that it may suddenly close and cause injury
if there is a gust of wind.
32
Crushing Prevention and Cutting Prevention
You should always have at least two people working together if the
engine must be run during service. One person needs to remain in the
operator's seat, ready to work the controls or stop the machine and
shut off the engine.
Unless you are instructed otherwise, never attempt adjustments while
the machine is moving or while the engine is running.
Stay clear of all rotating parts and moving parts.
Keep objects away from moving fan blades. The fan blades will throw
objects and the fan blades can cut objects.
Do not use a wire rope cable that is kinked or flayed. Wear gloves
when you handle a wire rope cable.
When you strike a retainer pin, the retainer pin might fly out. The loose
Figure 34
retainer pin can injure personnel. Make sure that the area is clear of
people when you strike a retainer pin. To avoid injury to your eyes,
wear protective glasses when you strike a retainer pin.
Track Tension Adjustments Require Caution
Never turn out the track tension grease fitting nut. To release pressure
from the core frame track tension assembly, you should NEVER
attempt to disassemble the track adjuster or attempt to remove the
grease fitting or valve assembly.
Keep your face and body away from the valve. Refer to the track
adjustment procedure in the Operator and Maintenance Manual or Shop
Manual.
Supports and Blocking for Work Equipment
Do not allow weight or equipment loads to remain suspended.
Lower everything to the ground before leaving the operator's seat.
Do not use hollow, cracked or unsteady wobbling supports.
Do not work under any equipment supported only by a lifting jack.
Figure 35
33
Action When Abnormality Is Found During Inspection
If any abnormality is found during inspection, always carry out repairs.
In particular, if the machine is used when there are still problems with
the brake or work equipment systems, it may lead to serious injury.
If necessary depending on the type of failure, please contact your
EVERDIGM distributor for repairs.
Precautions with High-pressure Lines, Tubes and Hoses
When inspecting or replacing high-pressure piping or hoses, check
that the pressure has been released from the circuit. Failure to release
the pressure may lead to serious injury.
Always do the following:
• Wear protective glasses and leather gloves.
• Fluid leaks from hydraulic hoses or pressurized components can
be difficult to see but pressurized oil has enough force to pierce
the skin and cause
serious injury. Always use a piece of wood or cardboard to check
for suspected hydraulic leaks. Never use your hands or expose
your fingers.
• Do not bend high-pressure lines. Do not strike high pressure
lines. Do not install lines, tubes or hoses that are bent or
damaged.
• Make sure that all clamps, guards and heat shields are installed
correctly to prevent vibration, rubbing against other parts, and
excessive heat during operation.
- If any of the following conditions are found, replace the part.
- Damage or leakage from hose end.
- Wear, damage, cutting of covering, or exposure of
strengthening wire layer.
- Cover portion is swollen in places.
Figure 36
- There is twisting or crushing at movable parts of hose.
- Foreign material is embedded in the covering.
- Hose end is deformed.
NOTE: Refer to "Hose In-service Lifetime Limit (European Standard ISO
8331 and EN982 CEN)" in the Operation and Maintenance
Manual, for additional European regulations.

Waste Materials
Physical contact with used motor oil may pose a health risk.
Wipe oil from your hands promptly and wash off any remaining
residue.
Used motor oil is an environmental contaminant and may only be
disposed of at approved collection facilities. To prevent pollution of the
environment, always do the following:
• Never dump waste oil in a sewer system, rivers, etc.
• Always put oil drained from your machine in containers. Never
drain oil directly onto the ground.
• Obey appropriate laws and regulations when disposing of
harmful materials such as oil, fuel, solvent, filters, and batteries.

1.13 Battery
Battery Hazard Prevention
Battery electrolyte contains diluted sulfuric acid and batteries generate
hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is highly explosive, and mistakes in
handling them can cause serious injury or fire. To prevent problems,
always do the following:
• Do not smoke or bring any flame near the battery.
• When working with batteries, ALWAYS wear safety glasses and
rubber gloves.
• If you spill battery electrolyte on yourself or your clothes,
immediately flush the area with water.
• If battery electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush them immediately
with large quantities of water and see a doctor at once.
• If you accidentally drink battery electrolyte, drink a large quantity
of water or milk, raw egg or vegetable oil. Call a doctor or poison
prevention center immediately.
• When cleaning the top surface of the battery, wipe it with a clean,
damp cloth. Never use gasoline, thinner, or any other organic
solvent or detergent.
• Tighten the battery caps securely.
• If the battery electrolyte is frozen, do not charge the battery or
start the engine with power from another source. There is danger
that the battery may catch fire.

Boost Starting or Charging Engine Batteries
If any mistake is made in the method of connecting the booster
cables, it may cause an explosion or fire. Always do the following:
• Turn off all electrical equipment before connecting leads to the
battery. This includes electrical switches on the battery charger
or boost starting equipment.
• When boost starting from another machine or vehicle do not
allow the two machines to touch. Wear safety glasses or
goggles while required battery connections are made.
•
24 volt battery units consisting of two series connected twelve
volt batteries have a cable connecting one positive terminal on
one of the 12 volt batteries to a negative terminal on the other
battery. Booster or charger cable connections must be made
between the nonseries connected positive terminals and
between the negative terminal of the booster battery and the
metal frame of the machine being boosted or charged. Refer to
the procedure and illustration in "Starting Engine With a Booster
Cable" in the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
• Connect positive cable first when installing cables and
disconnect the negative cable first when removing them. The
Figure 39
final cable connection, at the metal frame of the machine being
charged or boost started, should be as far away from the
batteries as possible.
