Safety instructions
2.4 General conduct and safety instructions
Organisational measures
• The machine has been designed and built in accordance with state-of-the-art standards
and the recognised safety regulations. Nevertheless, its use can constitute a risk to life
and limb of the user or of third parties, or cause damage to the machine and to other
material property
• The machine must only be used in technically perfect condition in accordance with its
designated use and the instructions set forth in the Operator's Manual, and only by
safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of the risks involved in operating the
machine. Any functional disorders, especially those affecting the safety of the machine,
must therefore be rectified immediately!
Basic rule:
Before starting up the machine, inspect the machine for safety in work and road
operation!
• Careful and prudent working is the best way to avoid accidents!
• The Operator's Manual must always be at hand on the machine and must therefore be
stored in the tool kit.
Immediately complete or replace an incomplete or illegible Operator's Manual.
• In addition to the Operator's Manual, observe and instruct the operator in all other
generally applicable legal and other mandatory regulations relevant to accident
prevention and environmental protection.
These compulsory regulations may also deal with handling hazardous substances,
issuing and/or wearing personal protective equipment, or traffic regulations
• With regard to specific operational features, e.g. those relevant to job organisation,
work sequences or the persons entrusted with the work, supplement the Operator's
Manual by corresponding instructions, including those relevant to supervising and
reporting duties
• Persons entrusted with work on the machine must have read and understood the
Operator's Manual and in particular, chapter “Safety Instructions” before beginning
work. This applies especially to persons working only occasionally on the machine,
e.g. set-up or maintenance
• The user/owner must check – at least from time to time – whether the persons
entrusted with operation or maintenance of the machine are working in compliance with
the Operator's Manual and are aware of risks and safety factors
• The user / owner commits himself to operate and keep the machine in perfect
condition, and, if necessary or required by law, to require the operating or servicing
persons to wear protective clothing etc.
• In the event of safety-relevant modifications or changes on the machine or of its
behaviour, stop the machine immediately and report the malfunction to the competent
authority/person. Safety-relevant damage or malfunctions of the machine must be
rectified immediately
• Never make any modifications, additions or conversions to the machine and its
superstructures, as well as to the attachments, which might affect safety without the
approval of Neuson Baumaschinen GmbH! This also applies to the installation and the
adjustment of safety devices and valves, as well as to welding work on load-bearing
elements
• Spare parts must comply with the technical requirements specified by Neuson
Baumaschinen GmbH. Original spare parts can be relied to do so.
• Replace hydraulic hoses within stipulated and appropriate intervals even if no
safety-relevant defects have been detected.
