SAFETY
• Use only the specied uids and lubricants. Substitute only products known to be equivalent
from reputable manufacturers.
• Disconnect the battery cables when working on the electrical system
or when welding on the compactor.
• Be sure the battery area is well ventilated (clear of fumes) should it be
necessary to connect a jumper cable or battery charger. Fumes can
ignite from a spark and may explode.
• Be sure battery charger is OFF when making connections if charging is required.
• Use only original fuses with the specied rating. Switch off the machine immediately if
trouble occurs in the electrical system.
• Work on the electrical system may only be carried out by a qualied electrician or by a
specially trained person according to electrical engineering principles.
• Inspect the electrical equipment of the machine at regular intervals. Defects such as loose
connections or burnt or scorched wires must be repaired or replaced immediately.
• Do not weld, ame cut or perform grinding on the machine unless expressly authorized,
as there may be a risk of re or explosion. Disconnect the battery when welding on the
machine.
• Clean the machine and its surrounding from dust or other ammable substances and make
sure the area is adequately ventilated before beginning welding, ame cutting or grinding
operations.
• Observe all product safety regulations when handling fuel, oils, grease, engine coolant and
other chemical substances. Be careful especially when these items are hot as there is a risk
of burning or scalding.
• Operate internal combustion engines and fuel operated heating systems
only in adequately ventilated premises. Before starting the engine in an
enclosed area, make sure there is sufcient ventilation.
1-11. Transporting the Machine
• Load and unload the machine in/from a transporting vehicle with two persons in order to
avoid an accidental drop of the machine.
• Drain fuel from the fuel tank, the carburetor, and the fuel strainer before transporting it on a
long distance or on a rough road.
