operation!
Do not start the engine when the wheel loader is upright again! Notify a specialist workshop! The engine must be
inspected by trained personnel and cleared for further operation!

For high ambient temperatures
Take the following precautions at high temperatures to avoid damaging the wheel loader:
• Check the cooling system regularly:
- Keep the water and oil cooler clean
- Always ensure the correct coolant level
- Use the right coolant mixture
- Check the cooling system regularly for leaks
- Check the fan belt regularly for condition and tension
• Use engine lubricating oil of the correct viscosity class

For low ambient temperatures
Accident hazard due to changing ground conditions!
Snow, mud and ice can lead to accidents! Accident hazard due to poor visibility! Free the cab windows of ice before
starting work!
At particularly low temperatures, i.e. –18 °C or less, an additional starting aid may be required. Examples include
