Accident hazard due to incorrect attachments!
Only use attachments approved for your wheel loader.
Non-approved attachments may overload the wheel loader. This can lead to instability of the wheel loader.
Accident hazard due to wheel loader tipping! The wheel loader's weight distribution alters when the tools are under
load. The approved operating loads may not be exceeded.
Only drive with the lifting frame lowered. When loading, adapt the driving speed to suit the material being loaded
and the environmental conditions! Risk of injury due to hydraulic oil jet escaping under pressure (e.g. damaged
hydraulic hoses)! Seek medical attention immediately if oil gets in the skin or eyes! Accident hazard due to people
remaining in the danger zone! Ensure that no persons are located in the wheel loader's danger zone.
Accident hazard due to the uncoupled attachment tipping. Attachments may only be replaced by personnel with
sufficient expertise – in the absence of expertise, thorough training must be given by experienced personnel!
Risk of injury due to damaged attachments! Do not use damaged attachments.
Before starting work, always inspect the attachments for damage, tight fit and correct locking. Do not work with
damaged attachments/attachment locks. Only perform work on attachments if the wheel loader is secured as
described in section 7. "SECURING THE WHEEL LOADER".
Non-approved attachments may overload the wheel loader. This can lead to damage to the wheel loader.
The wheel loader is equipped with a hydraulic or mechanical quick-change system for the various attachments. This
allows the wheel loader operator to quickly and easily couple and uncouple attachments from the driver's seat!
