OPERATING MANUAL
2.1.4 Forbidden activities – safety
andguarantee
The following is forbidden
• Using the machine in case of an evident defect of the ma-
chine.
• Using the machine when any of the operating uid levels
is low.
• To repair the engine without authorization – except com-
mon changes of operating uids and lters, only an au-
thorized service organization is allowed to intervene in the
engine, including the peripheral components of the engine
(for example, the alternator, the starter, the thermostat, the
electrical installation of the engine.
• Increasing and decreasing the engine speed rapidly; you
could damage the engine.
• Using the emergency brake for turning o the engine dur-
ing normal operation of the machine.
• Operate the machine in potentially explosive atmospheres
(ATEX) and underground areas.
• Using the machine after ingestion of alcoholic beverages or
drugs.
• Using the machine if its operation might endanger its tech-
nical condition, safety (life, health) of persons, facilities or
objects, or road trac and its continuity.
• Putting the machine into operation and using the machine
when other persons are within its danger zone – the excep-
tion is atraining of adriver by an instructor.
• Putting the machine into operation and using the machine
when a safety device (emergency brake, hydraulic locks,
etc.) has been removed or damaged.
• Travelling and compacting in such slopes where the ma-
chine stability would be broken (overturning). The stated
machine static stability is reduced by dynamic eects of the
drive.
• Travelling and compacting in such gradients of slopes
where there is arisk of soil breaking o (dropping) under
the machine or of loss of adhesion and of uncontrolled slip.
• Controlling the machine in some other way than stated in
the operating manual.
• Travelling and compacting with vibration according to the
bearing capacity of the subsoil in such adistance from the
slope edge or trenches where there is arisk of landslide or
shoulder breaking o (dropping) together with the ma-
chine.
• Travelling and compacting with vibration in such adistance
from walls, cuts and slopes where there is arisk of landslide
and the machine could be covered up with soil.
• Compacting with vibration in such adistance from build-
ings or facilities and equipment within which there is arisk
of damage due to transmission of vibration.
• Moving and transporting persons on the machine.
• Working with the machine if the operator´s stand is not
properly attached.
• Working with the machine when the bonnet, cab or plat-
form is lifted o.
• Working with the machine if there are other machines or
means of transport in its danger zone, except those that op-
erate in mutual cooperation with the machine.
• Working with the machine at aplace that is not seen from
the operator’s stand and where hazard to people or prop-
erty could occur unless the occupational safety is ensured
through some other way, e.g. by aduly instructed signalling
person.
• Working with the machine in a protected zone of electric
lines or substations.
• Crossing electric cables if they are not properly protected
against mechanical damage.
• Working with the machine in reduced visibility or at night
unless the machine’s working area and the workplace are il-
luminated suciently.
• Leaving the seat of the machine operator when the machine
is running.
• Getting in or o on the run, jumping down from the ma-
chine.
• Sitting on the railing or external parts of the machine during
adrive.
• Leaving the machine unattended – moving away from the
machine without having prevented its misuse.
• Disabling safety, protective or locking systems or altering
their parameters.
• Using amachine from which oil, fuel, coolant or other oper-
ating uid is leaking.
• Starting the engine in adierent way than given in the op-
erating manual.
• Placing other items (tools, accessories) than items for per-
sonal use on the operator’s stand.
• Placing materials or other items on the machine.
• Removing dirt while the machine is running.
• Performing maintenance, cleaning or repairs with the ma-
chine not secured against spontaneous movement or acci-
dental start, and if aperson can come in contact with mov-
ing parts of the machine.
• Touching moving parts of the machine with the human
body or items and tools held in hands.
• Smoking or handling open re when checking or pumping
fuels, replacing and relling oils, lubricating the machine
and inspecting the battery and relling the battery.
• Conveying rags saturated with inammable materials and
inammable liquids in loose vessels on the machine (in the
engine compartment).
• Leave the engine running in enclosed, unventilated areas.
Exhaust fumes are dangerous to life.
• Performing modications on the machine without the prior
consent of the manufacturer.
• Travelling with the seat belt not fastened.
• Moving electrical conductors.
• Using other than original spare parts.
• Intervening in electrical and electronic units in any manner.
• Using the pressure washing near the control unit of the ma-
chine.
• Filling the hydraulic circuit during the guarantee period in
adierent way than using the hydraulic unit.
• Working long-term in the vibro stroke mode!
Non-observance of the above provisions can impact on
the assessment of acomplaint and eectiveness of the
engine guarantee period.
