• Do not modify the roof grille, as it is part of the FOPS. Modifications invalidate the
FOPS certification and reduce operator protection.
• Machines with a low cab, only for seated operators, are FOPS approved for the seated
operator.
• The FOPS and ROPS data plate is located inside the cab.

5.4 Firefighting Equipment
5.4.1 Fire Prevention Readiness
Fire prevention readiness means that personnel know how to use the fire extinguisher and
the automatic fire suppression system before operating or working on the machine.
It is important to do the following before operating or working on the machine:
• Read the instructions and know the location, function, and use of fire extinguishers and
activating devices.
• Identify if the machine has a main power switch or a battery isolation switch or both.
Be trained on how to turn the switches off in the case of fire.
• Identify if the machine has a fuel supply. Be trained on how to close the fuel supply in
the case of fire.
5.4.2 Automatic Fire Suppression System
The machine can be equipped with an automatic fire suppression system that can be acti-
vated both manually and automatically. The system uses powder, liquid, or gas (such as
carbon dioxide) as a suppression medium. When the system is activated, pressure is cre-
ated in the tanks and the extinguishant is ejected through nozzles to suppress the fire. The
emergency stop is automatically activated if the automatic fire suppression system is trig-
gered.
An authorized service company must inspect the automatic fire suppression system when
instructed to do so during a maintenance interval. Contact the Epiroc local customer center
for information regarding authorized service companies.
If the machine has been modified, an authorized service company must inspect the auto-
matic fire suppression system.
!
NOTE: Disable the automatic fire suppression system when steam-cleaning, hi-pres-
sure washing, welding, battery charging and starting with auxiliary battery.
