General Hazard Information
Attach a "DO NOT OPERATE" or similar warning tag to start switch or controls before servicing or repairing the machine. These tags, Form SEHS7332, are available from your Caterpillar dealer.Wear a hard hat, protective glasses and other protective equipment as required by job conditions.Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that can catch on controls or other parts of the machine.Make certain all protective guards and covers are secured in place on the machine.Secure all loose items such as lunch boxes, tools and other items which are not part of the engine.Never put maintenance fluids into glass containers.Use all cleaning solutions with care.Report all needed repairs.Do not allow unauthorized personnel close to the engine when the engine is being serviced.* The engine stopped.* The disconnect switch off.* Disconnect the batteries, before servicing the electrical system.* Use proper tools and replace or repair broken or damaged equipment.* Do not attempt repairs you do not understand.* When starting an engine after repairs have been made to the fuel system, make provisions for shutting off the engine's intake air supply, to stop the engine, in case there is an overspeed on start-up.Pressure Air
Pressure air can cause personal injury. When using pressure air for cleaning, wear a protective face shield, protective clothing and protective shoes.The maximum air pressure must be below 205 kPa (30 psi) for cleaning purposes.Fluid Penetration
Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak. Escaping fluid under pressure, even a pin-hole size leak, can penetrate body tissue, causing serious injury, and possible death. If fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated by a doctor familiar with this type of injury immediately.Asbestos Information
Caution should be used to avoid breathing dust that may be generated when handling components containing asbestos fibers. If this dust is inhaled, it can be hazardous to your health. Components in Caterpillar products that may contain asbestos fibers are brake pads, brake band and lining assemblies, clutch plates and some gaskets. The asbestos used in these components is usually bound in a resin or sealed in some way. Normal handling is not hazardous as long as airborne dust which contains asbestos is not generated.If dust which may contain asbestos is present, there are several common sense guidelines that should be followed.1. Never use compressed air for cleaning.2. Avoid brushing or grinding of asbestos containing materials.3. For clean up, use wet methods or a vacuum equipped with a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter.4. Use exhaust ventilation on permanent machining jobs.5. Wear an approved respirator if there is no other way to control the dust.6. Comply with applicable rules and regulations for the work place (for example in the U.S.A., OSHA requirements as set forth in 29 CFR 1910.1001).7. Follow environmental rules and regulations for disposal of asbestos.8. Avoid areas where asbestos particles may be in the air.Crushing or Cutting Prevention
Support equipment and attachments properly when working beneath them. Do not depend on hydraulic cylinders to hold it up. Any attachment can fall if a control is moved, or if a hydraulic line breaks.Never attempt adjustments while the machine is moving or the engine is running unless otherwise specified.Stay clear of all rotating and moving parts.Keep objects away from moving fan blades. They will throw or cut any object or tool that falls or is pushed into them.Do not use a kinked or frayed wire rope cable. Wear gloves when handling the wire rope cable.Retainer pins, when struck with force, can fly out and injure nearby persons. Make sure the area is clear of people when driving retainer pins.Wear protective glasses when striking a retainer pin to avoid injury to your eyes.Chips or other debris can fly off objects when struck. Make sure no one can be injured by flying debris before striking any object.Burn Prevention
Coolant
At operating temperature, the engine coolant is hot and under pressure. The radiator and all lines to heaters or the engine contain hot water or steam. Any contact can cause severe burns.Steam can cause personal injury.Check the coolant level only after the engine has been stopped and the filler cap is cool enough to remove with your bare hand.Remove the cooling system filler cap slowly to relieve pressure.Cooling system conditioner contains alkali that can cause personal injury. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and do not drink.Allow cooling system components to cool before draining.Oils
Hot oil and components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or components to contact the skin.Relieve all pressure in air, oil, fuel or cooling systems before any lines, fittings or related items are disconnected or removed.Batteries
Batteries give off flammable fumes which can explode.Do not smoke when observing the battery electrolyte levels.Electrolyte is an acid and can cause personal injury if it contacts skin or eyes.Always wear protective glasses when working with batteries.Fire or Explosion Prevention
All fuels, most lubricants and some coolant mixtures are flammable.Fuel leaked or spilled onto hot surfaces or electrical components can cause a fire.Do not smoke while refueling or in a refueling area.Do not smoke in areas where batteries are charged, or where flammable materials are stored.Batteries in series may be located in separate compartments. When using jumper cables always connect positive (+) cable to positive (+) terminal of battery connected to starter solenoid and negative (-) cable from external source to starter negative (-) terminal. (If not equipped with starter negative terminal, connect to engine block.)See the "Operation Section" of this manual for specific instructions.Clean and tighten all electrical connections. Check daily for loose or frayed electrical wires. Have all loose or frayed electrical wires tightened, repaired or replaced before operating the machine.Keep all fuels and lubricants stored in properly marked containers and away from all unauthorized persons.Store all oily rags or other flammable material in a protective container, in a safe place.Do not weld or flame cut or pipes or tubes that contain flammable fluids. Clean them thoroughly with nonflammable solvent before welding or flame cutting on them.Remove all flammable materials such as fuel,
