Safety Instructions
Danger of hot surface.
Hot surface can cause serious injuries.
Diesel engine, exhaust purifier, coolant tank, rod, shank or
hydraulic components can be hot, thus before starting
any maintenance work, always let them cool off.
Ensure that lifting equipments and pedestals are compatible
with elements’ weight. Before any operation stabilize and
fix steadily all the elements on suitable pedestals.
Crushing hazard : do not stay in dangerous area, for instance:
central articulation, front chassis and rear chassis.
Danger of high pressure oil jets. High pressure oil jets can
cause serious personal injuries. Before any operation on
hydraulic circuit, STOP the power pack and release
remaining pressure in components by operating
hydraulic control levers several times.
Always release the static pressure in cylinders before
disassemble them.

INSTALLING THE INFLATING KIT ON THE NITROGEN RECEIVER
According to the country, select the correct fitting 4 or 5 (or other) which fits
on the
nitrogen receiver.
Note: Only those two fittings are supplied with the inflating box, the
optional pressure
reducer 15 is not supplied with the inflating box .
1. Install fitting 4 or 5 (or other) on the nitrogen receiver.
2. Plug and tighten the connecting hose 7 or the optional pressure reducer 15 to
the
fitting installed on nitrogen receiver.
3. If you are using an optional pressure reducer 15, plug and tighten to it the
connecting
hose 7.

Before installing fittings, always check the
condition of their seal(s). Replace the seal(s)
if needed.
Only use NITROGEN (N2) gas in accumulators.
Never inflate them with another gas, it may
cause explosion.
