Safety instructions
• Have loads fastened and crane operators instructed by experienced persons only!
The person giving the instructions to the operator must be within sight or sound of him!
• Always use specially designed or otherwise safety-oriented ladders and working
platforms to carry out overhead assembly work.
Never use machine parts or attachments/superstructures as a climbing aid!
Wear a safety harness when carrying out maintenance work at greater heights!
Keep all handles, steps, handrails, platforms, landings and ladders free from dirt, snow
and ice!
• Clean the machine, especially connections and threaded unions, of any traces of oil,
fuel or preservatives before carrying out maintenance/repair work!
Do not use aggressive detergents!
Use lint-free cleaning rags!
• Before cleaning the machine with water, steam jet (high-pressure cleaner) or deter-
gents, cover or tape up all openings which – for safety and functional reasons – must
be protected against water, steam or detergent penetration. Special care must be taken
with the electrical system!
• After cleaning, remove all covers and tapes applied for that purpose!
• After cleaning, examine all fuel, lubricant and hydraulic oil lines for leaks, chafe marks
and damage!
Rectify all defects without delay!
• Always tighten any screwed connections that have been loosened during maintenance
and repair!
• Any safety devices removed for set-up, maintenance or repair purposes must be
refitted and checked immediately upon completion of the maintenance and repair work!
• Make sure all consumables and replaced parts are disposed of safely and with
minimum environmental impact!
• Do not use the work equipment as lifting platforms for persons!
• Before taking up work on machine parts dangerous for life and limb (bruising, cutting),
always ensure safe blocking/support of these areas!
• Carry out maintenance and repair work beneath a raised machine, work equipment/
attachments or additional equipment only if a safe and secure support has been
provided for (the sole use of hydraulic rams, jacks etc. does not sufficiently secure
raised machines or equipment/attachments)!
• Avoid contact with hot parts, such as the engine block or the exhaust system during the
operation of the machine and for some time afterwards – danger of burns!
• Retainer pins can fly out or splinter when struck with force – danger of personal injury!
• Do not use starting fuel! This especially applies to those cases in which a heater plug
(intake-air preheating) is used at the same time – danger of explosions!
• Apply special care when working on the fuel system – increased danger of fire!
