WARNING
Replace or repair components only after the affected circuit has been secured, locked
out, and tagged out. Performing replacement with the circuit energized may result in
damaged equipment and serious injury or death to personnel.
Do not allow hydraulic fluid or cleaning solvent to come in contact with unprotected
skin or eyes. Prolonged skin contact can cause illness or injury. Eye contact can cause
serious injury. Always wear chemical protective gloves and goggles when handling
used hydraulic fluid and cleaning solvent. Failure to comply can result in illness, seri-
ous injury, or death.
Hydraulic hoses and lines may be under pressure. Relieve pressure by operating the
appropriate control valve if possible. Loosen fittings on hose lines slowly. Allow oil to
run around threads of fitting, releasing pressure before disconnecting fitting. Releasing
pressurized oil suddenly can cause serious injury or death.

noted, proceed to the next step. If voltage is noted, ensure that the system is properly secured, locked out, and tagged
out.
