GENERAL
• Lay and install hydraulic and compressed
air lines appropriately. Do not confuse con-
nections. The fittings, the length and the
quality of the hose lines must comply with
the requirements.
Noise
• Sound protection devices at the machine
must be in protection position during oper-
ation.
Fuel, oils, greases and other chemical
substances
• Only appropriate and clean lubricants may
be used. Otherwise the guarantee be-
comes void.
• During the handling of oils, greases and
other chemical substances, observe the
safety regulations applying for the respec-
tive product.
• Do not heat oil above 160 °C (320 °F); oth-
erwise, oil or oil vapours may ignite.
• Prior to filling up fuel, switch off engine and
heating and pull out the ignition key. Do
not fill up fuel in closed rooms. Wipe away
spilled fuel immediately.
• Be extremely careful when handling fuel -
increased fire hazard. Never fill up fuel
near open flames or igniting sparks. Do
not smoke during filling up!
• Be careful during the handling of brake flu-
id and battery acid (noxious and caustic).
• Be careful during the handling of hot oper-
ation and auxiliary materials (danger of

mixed from water and release concentrate
according to the indications of the release
agent manufacturer. The environment pro-
tection regulations must be observed.
Transport and towing
• Only tow, load and transport according to
the operating instructions.
• Only use appropriate transport means and
lifting hoist with sufficient load capacity.
Take into account the weight and the di-
mensions (technical data).
• Only use stable loading ramps with suffi-
cient carrying capacity for loading. Take
care not to endanger persons by tilting or
sliding.
• Prior to loading ensure that the vehicle
(e.g. trailer, flat bed etc.) cannot tilt up-
wards when driving onto the loading area.
• Do not step or rest under suspended loads
(danger of life).
• Do not rest in the danger zone of the ma-
chine during the guidance and loading of
the machine (danger of life).
• Use the specified gantries.
• Drive the machine slowly onto or from the
loading area, respectively.
• Safeguard the machine with square timer,
wedges and tensioning ropes against
shifting. Safeguard the attenuation ele-
ments of the drum suspension against
overload by means of a support.
• Remove square timbers, wedges and ten-
sioning ropes completely before unload-
ing.
• All safety devices removed for transport
purposes (anti-rollover device ROPS, han-
dles, silencers etc.) must be installed to
the machine prior to using it.
