operations
 In maintenance operations only use original AUSA spare parts.
This is the only way to guarantee that your dumper will remain as technically
efficient as when it was purchased.
 In this dumper as with any other, there are parts and system which are subject to
wear and misalignment, which may affect reliability and driver safety, the environment
and the area, for example exhaust fume emissions, etc.
In accordance with Work Group Directives, inspections of these systems must be carried
out periodically and the results recorded on the forms provided by the Work Authorities
of each country. (89/655/CEE and RD1215/97).
Unless work on the engine demands that it be running, perform all repairs and
maintenance on the dumper with the machine parked and unloaded, with the gear stick
in neutral and the wheels blocked to keep the dumper from moving during servicing.
Unless otherwise specified, do not start the engine during maintenance operations.
Disconnect the battery before carrying out any operation on the electrical system with
the disconnector (fig. 1). Never use a flame to check fluid levels.
 Be environmentally friendly.
When changing oils or other fluids, use an appropriate container to collect the fluid and
ensure that you are not harming the environment during the operations and take all
replaced materials (batteries, coolant, tyres, etc.) to the appropriate recycling centres.
In cases of leaks of substances which could be harmful to people or the environment,
urgently take the necessary actions to reduce the impact, e.g. in oil leaks, plug the leak,
place a container underneath to collect the oil, spread absorbent material or dig up and
remove the contaminated ground if necessary.
 Washing the dumper
During the washing process, care must be taken to avoid aiming the pressurised water
jet at the air intake (air filter), battery, instrument panel, alternator and other electrical
equipment since this can damage the components.
 Roadside breakdown
In the case of a breakdown when driving on a road, you must use the warning triangles.
The triangles are offered as optional equipment.
