5. During operation, listen for abnormal sounds which might indicate loose parts or other damage. AFTER EACH USE 1. Clean all debris from machine, especially cylinder rods and affixed safety decals. Replace any missing or illegible decals. 2. Inspect loader for worn or damaged components. Repair or replace before next use. Any replace- ment components installed during repair shall include the components’ current safety decals specified by the manufacturer to be affixed to the component. 3. Store loader in a dry place. To keep mounting kit hardware from loosening during operation, periodically check that all loader mounting kit hardware is torqued to specifications noted in torque chart, Page 33. To aid in mounting and dismounting loader, apply a small amount of grease to areas shown in Figure 4-1. THE LOADER CAN FALL FROM HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FAILURE. TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, SECURELY SUPPORT LOADER BEFORE WORKING UNDERNEATH. BEFORE EACH USE 1. Pivot Pins -Apply multi-purpose grease to each fitting. 2. Hydraulic Oil - Cycle boom and bucket cylinders 2 or 3 times before each use, then check hydraulic oil level in tractor reservoir. USE A PIECE OF CARDBOARD OR WOOD RATHER THAN HANDS AND WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN SEARCHING FOR HYDRAULIC LEAKS. ESCAPING HYDRAULIC OIL UNDER PRESSURE CAN PENETRATE SKIN. IF OIL IS INJECTED INTO SKIN, IT MUST BE SURGICALLY REMOVED WITHIN A FEW HOURS BY A DOCTOR OR GANGRENE MAY RESULT. WARNING CAUTION 4-2 LUBRICATION (Figure 4-2) NOTE The multi-purpose grease referenced in this section is an NLGI grade 2 type grease.
