GENERAL

1.1. Importance of regular maintenance

The TORO 007 is designed for hard work in difficult and demanding mine conditions. To
ensure trouble--free and economical operation, it is extremely important to adhere to the
schedule for regular maintenance. By following this schedule closely, you can easily
detect possible defects in the machine which can be repaired before they become serious.
This will ensure low repair costs and minimize production disturbances.
The pages that follow give information on servicing various TORO 007 components and
the corresponding service intervals. We urge all end users to review the Detroit Operator's
Guide for additional information regarding servicing.

1.2. General safety precautions during operation

We recommend that records be kept on servicing and wearing part replacements. Regular
maintenance procedures at the correct intervals increase productivity, reliability,
economy, and the safety of the equipment.
Even maintenance work can be dangerous, unless caution is observed. Everybody
involved in maintenance work should understand the possible hazards and use safe
working methods. Before starting any maintenance or repair work, read the
manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to follow them.
The personnel must not wear long, loose hair or loose clothing, nor should they wear
jewelry, including rings, because of the risk of injury.
Use personal protection suits and other protective equipment as far as is necessary or
mandatory.
Do not perform any modifications, extensions, or rebuilding of the machine that would
affect safety. Consult the supplier or manufacturer. This also includes the built--in and
adjustment of safety devices and valves, as well as the welding of frame structures.
Spare parts must meet the manufacturer's technical specifications. Conformity to these
standards is guaranteed only when genuine spare parts are used.
Notify the location and use of fire extinguishers!
It is absolutely necessary to have suitable specialized workshop equipment to ensure
high--quality maintenance work.
Any maintenance or repair work on the TORO loader must be performed by properly
trained or instructed personnel only. Work must be performed on electrical appliances by
electricians and on hydraulic appliances by mechanical technicians with knowledge and
experience particular to the work to be done.
Carry out any activity specified in this manual with respect to adjustment, maintenance,
and inspection times, in addition to heeding any indications for replacement of parts.
Clean and wash the equipment regularly, and always before and after maintenance and
repair work. Before cleaning the machine with water, or by steam jet or with other
cleansers, cover the alternator, connection boxes, and major connections. Remove the
covers after cleaning!
Never attempt to clean, adjust, repair, or lubricate the TORO loader while it is in
motion or the engine is running.
