Safety 2
2.4 Operation
Preparatory measures
• Operation is only allowed with correctly installed
and intact protective structures.
• Keep the vehicle clean. This reduces injury, accident and fire hazards.
• Safely store objects you carry with you in the places provided for this
(for example, in the storage compartment, drinks holder).
• Do not carry objects with you that protrude into the operator’s work
space. They can create another danger in case of an accident.
• Observe all safety, warning and information labels.
• Before starting up the machine, check to ensure the battery connector
for secure connection.
• Start and operate the machine only with the seat belt fastened and only
from the place provided for this.
• Check the condition and the fastening of the seat belt.
Have malfunctioning seat belts and mounting hardware
replaced by an authorized service center.
• Before starting work, adjust the seating position so that all control
elements can be reached and fully operated.
• Only perform the personal adjustments at machine
standstill (e.g. operator seat, steering column).
• Ensure that all safety devices are properly
installed and functional before starting work.
• Before starting work or after interrupting work, ensure that the brake,
steering, signaling and light systems are functional.
• Before putting the vehicle into operation, ensure that nobody is in the
danger zone.
