Safety instructions
DANGER
The truck must not be used by unauthorised per-
sons.
As the operator, you must ensure that access to the
truck is only possible for authorised personnel.
DANGER
Safety devices (e.g. the seat switch) are there for
your safety.
Safety devices—of whatever kind—must never be
disabled.
DANGER
When retrofitting a 3rd auxiliary hydraulic system,
using solutions other than those recommended by
the truck manufacturer will render CE conformity
null and void and is therefore expressly forbidden.
Trucks may only be retrofitted with a 3rd auxiliary
hydraulic system with the approval of the truck
manufacturer.
DANGER
It is prohibited to connect any safety critical func-
tions such as a bale clamp or the swivel device for
a fluid container to any third auxiliary hydraulic sys-
tem that may be fitted.
To prevent the clamp or swivel opening inadver-
tently, the additional function should be connected
to the first auxiliary hydraulic system.
DANGER
Any additional drilled holes or welding to the over-
head guard will compromise its secure positioning.
It is therefore strictly forbidden to drill holes in the
overhead guard or to weld to it.
CAUTION
Welding operations on other parts of the vehicle
can cause damage to the electronics.
Therefore, before performing any welding, always
disconnect the battery and all connections to the
electronic control units.
