FS 130 /FS170
In any work concerning the operation, conversion or adjustment of the machine and its safety-oriented
devices or any work related to maintenance, inspection and repair, always observe the start-up and shut-
down procedures set out in the operating instructions and the information on maintenance work.
Ensure that the maintenance area is adequately secured.
If the machine is completely shut down for maintenance and repair work, it must be secured against inadvertent
starting by:
- locking the principal control elements and removing the ignition key and/or
- attaching a warning sign to the main switch.
To avoid the risk of accidents, individual parts and large assemblies being moved for re place ment purposes
should be carefully attached to lifting tackle and se cured. Use only suitable and technically perfect lifting gear
and suspension sys tems with adequate lifting capacity. Never work or stand under suspended loads.
The fastening of loads and the instructing of crane operators should be en trust ed to ex pe ri enced persons only.
The marshaller giving the instructions must be with in sight or sound of the operator.
Clean the machine, especially connections and threaded unions, of any traces of oil, fuel or preservatives
before carrying out maintenance/repair. Never use ag gres sive detergents. Use lint-free cleaning rags.
Before cleaning the machine with water, steam jet (high-pressure cleaning) or detergents, cover or tape up
all openings which - for safety and functional rea sons - must be protected against water, steam or detergent
penetration. Special care must be taken with electric mo tors and switchgear cabinets.
After cleaning, remove all covers and tapes applied for that purpose.
After cleaning, examine all fuel, lubricant, and hydraulic fl uid lines for leaks, loose con nec tions, chafe marks
and damage. Any defects found must be rectifi ed with out delay.
Always tighten any screwed connections that have been loosened during main te nance and repair.
Any safety devices removed for set-up, maintenance or repair purposes must be refi tted and checked imme-
diately upon completion of the maintenance and re pair work.
Ensure that all consumables and replaced parts are disposed of safely and with minimum environmental im-
pact.
Electric energy
Use only original fuses with the specifi ed current rating. Switch off the machine immediately if trouble
occurs in the electrical system.
Work on the electrical system or equipment may only be carried out by a skilled electrician himself or by
specially instructed personnel under the control and supervision of such elec tri cian and in accordance
with the applicable electrical engineering rules.
The electrical equipment of machines is to be inspected and checked at reg u lar in ter vals. Defects such
as loose connections or scorched cables must be rec ti fi ed immediately.
Necessary work on live parts and elements must be carried out only in the pres ence of a second person
who can cut off the power supply in case of danger by actuating the emer gen cy shut-off or main power
switch. Secure the working area with a red-and-white safety chain and a warning sign. Use insulated
tools only.
2.6 Warning of special dangers
Gas, dust, steam, smoke
Carry out welding, fl ame-cutting and grinding work on the machine only if this has been expressly au-
thorized, as there may be a risk of explosion and fi re.
Before carrying out welding, fl ame-cutting and grinding operations, clean the machine and its surroundings
from dust and other infl ammable sub stanc es and make sure that the premises are adequately ventilated
(risk of explosion).
Operate internal combustion engines and fueloperated heating systems only on adequately ventilated
premises. Before starting the machine on enclosed premis es, make sure that there is suffi cient ventilation.
Observe the regulations in force at the respective site.
