Terex MHL360 E - Safe Maintenance of the Machine

2 SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION
2.18 MHL360 E
2.5.11 Residual risk
Even when used as intended in compliance
with all instructions provided, a residual risk
cannot be ruled out. As such, misuse or tech-
nical defects may cause substantial damage
to property and a risk of personal injury, in-
cluding severe injuries or even death. These
residual risks can be kept to a minimum by
handling the machine carefully and compe-
tently. They cannot, however, be fully elimi-
nated.
2.6 Safe maintenance of the machine
2.6.1 General safety
 Maintenance and repair work may only be
performed by trained specialist personnel.
 The prescribed intervals or the intervals
specified in the operating instructions for
periodic checks/inspections must be ob-
served. A suitably equipped workshop is
absolutely essential for performing mainte-
nance tasks.
 The maintenance and inspection plan pre-
cisely defines who must or may perform
which tasks. Specific jobs may be per-
formed by the machine operator (or operat-
ing personnel).Other tasks may only be
performed by specialist personnel with the
appropriate training.
 Spare parts have to meet the technical re-
quirements set out by the manufacturer.
This is always ensured if you use original
spare parts.
 Wear protective work clothing when per-
forming maintenance work. In addition to a
safety helmet and safety boots, certain jobs
also require protective goggles and protec-
tive gloves.
 Keep unauthorized persons well away from
the machine during maintenance.
 If necessary, cordon off ample space for the
maintenance area.
 Inform operating staff before starting to per-
form special and maintenance tasks. Ap-
point supervisors.
 If nothing is indicated to the contrary in the
operating instructions, all maintenance work
on the machine must be carried out on a
solid and level surface with the loading
equipment set down and the diesel engine
turned off.
 For all maintenance work, especially when
working under the machine, hang a warning
sign "Do not turn on" by the ignition key
lock, ensuring that it is clearly visible. Re-
move the ignition key and turn off the bat-
tery isolator switch.
 Always tighten screws that were loosened
during maintenance and repair tasks.
 If disassembly of safety equipment is re-
quired, the safety equipment must be re-
connected and checked immediately upon
completion of the relevant tasks.
2.6.2 Safety instructions for replacing
the (optional) XENON lamp
 Always switch the headlamp off and isolate
it from the supply voltage before changing
the lamp.
 Never touch the inside of the bulb.
 The electrical connection between head-
lamp and ballast conducts high voltage and
must not be disconnected.
 The ballast (electronic component in the
headlight housing) must never be operated
without a lamp, as dangerous voltage flash-
overs can occur on the socket which may
cause damage.
 Let the lamp cool down first.
 Wear safety goggles and safety gloves
when changing the lamp.
