PREVENT FIRES
Check for Oil Leaks:
•
Fuel, hydraulic oil and lubricant leaks can lead to fires.
• Check for missing or loose clamps, kinked hoses,
lines or hoses that rub against each other, damage to
the oil-cooler, and loose oil-cooler flange bolts, for oil
leaks.
• Tighten, repair or replace any missing, loose or
damaged clamps, lines, hoses, oil-cooler and
oil-cooler flange bolts.
• Do not bend or strike high-pressure lines.
• Never install bent or damaged lines, pipes or hoses.
Check for Shorts:
•
Short circuits can cause fires.
• Clean and tighten all electrical connections.
• Check before each shift or after eight (8) to ten (10)
hours operation for loose, kinked, hardened or frayed
electrical cables and wires.
• Check before each shift or after eight (8) to ten (10)
hours operation for missing or damaged terminal
caps.
• DO NOT OPERATE MACHINE if cable or wires are
loose, kinked, etc..
Clean up Flammables:
•
Spilled fuel and oil, and trash, grease, debris,
accumulated coal dust, and other flammables may
cause fires.
• Prevent fires by inspecting and cleaning the machine
daily, and by removing spilled or accumulated
flammables immediately.
Check Key Switch:
•
If fire breaks out, failure to stop the engine will escalate
fire, hampering fire fighting.
• Always check key switch function before operating the
machine every day:
1. Start the engine and run it at slow idle.
2. Turn the key switch to the OFF position to confirm
that the engine stops.
• If any abnormalities are found, be sure to repair them
before operating the machine.
