SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Never leave the ignition key in the machine during the operator's absence.
- When the machine is stationary, or if the operator has to leave his cab (even for a moment), place the forks or attachment
on the ground, apply the parking brake and place the forward/reverse selector in neutral.
- Make sure that the machine is not stopped in any position that will interfere with the traffic flow and at less than one
meter from the track of a railway.
- In the event of prolonged parking on a site, protect the machine from bad weather, particularly from frost (check the
level of antifreeze), and close and lock all the machine accesses (doors, windows, cowls, etc.).
INSTRUCTIONS
- Park the machine on flat ground or on an incline lower than 15%.
- Set the forward/reverse selector to neutral.
- Apply the parking brake.

- When using an attachment with a grab or jaws, or a bucket with hydraulic opening, close the attachment fully.
- Before stopping the machine after intensive work, leave the engine idling for a few moments to allow the coolant and oil
to lower the temperature of the engine and transmission. Do not forget this precaution, in the event of frequent stops
or warm stalling of the engine, or else the temperature of certain parts will rise significantly due to the stopping of the
cooling system, with the risk of badly damaging such parts.
