8 Operation
8.1 Before commissioning
8.1.1 Control procedures before commissioning
 Check the machine and components for damage. In the event of visible damage, do not operate the
machine and immediately contact Wacker Neuson service.
 Ensure that loose packaging material has been removed from the machine.
 Check the fuel level.
 Check the engine oil level.
 Check the fuel lines for leak tightness.
 Check to ensure the screwed connections are firmly seated.
8.2 Notes about operation
Operation on sloped surfaces
 Always stand above the machine in a sloped area.
 Only approach gradients from below (a gradient that can be easily driven up can also be driven down
without any risk).
 Do not stand in the direction of descent of the machine.
 Do not exceed the maximum permissible slanting position. See chapter Technical Data.
 Only operate the machine in the maximum permissible slanting position for a short time.
WARNING
Improper handling can lead to injuries or serious material damage.
 Read and observe all safety instructions in this operator's manual.
NOTE
Perform control procedures according to the Maintenance chapter. If necessary, top off
missing fuel, lubricants and coolants, see chapterTechnical Data.
WARNING
Danger of tipping
There is a serious risk of injury due to the machine slipping or tipping over.
Near edges, at least 2/3 of the machine must be on a load-bearing surface.
 Turn off the machine and lift it back onto a load-bearing surface.
WARNING
Health hazard from exhaust fumes
 The exhaust fumes of this engine contain chemicals, which the state of California
knows can cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive damage.
NOTE
If the maximum permissible slanting position is exceeded, this results in a failure of the
engine lubrication and therefore inevitably causes a defect of important engine parts.
