Safety remarks :
3.4 Safety signs applied to the machine :
Keep all safety plates and labels in good legible order and ensure their observance.
Damaged and illegible safety plates and labels must be renewed without delay.
Spares of all plates and labels are available, see the spare parts list.
3.5 Loading the machine for transport:
- Only use stable loading ramps with sufficient load-bearing capacity. The ramp incline must not be
any steeper than the specified climbing ability (see Specifications) of the machine.
- Safeguard the machine against tilting or slipping.
- Safeguard the machine on transport vehicles against rolling, slipping and tipping over.
- When suspended, the machine may only be permitted a minimal rocking motion.
The following situations represent a danger to life and limb:
• Walking or standing under suspended loads.
• Remaining within the driving area of the machine while it is being guided into position and loaded.
3.6 Towing the machine :
Always use a tow rod for all towing operations !
The maximum towing speed of 1 kph must not be exceeded. Never tow the machine further than 200 mm.
When mechanically releasing the disk brake, safeguard the machine against unintentional rolling away.
3.7 Checking the rollover bar (ROPS)
The machine frame must not be damaged, distorted or demonstrate any cracks in the area of the ROPS roof
fixture.
Neither must the ROPS roof itself demonstrate any hairline cracks, rusting or open breakages.
Marked vibrations or rattling of the ROPS roof is an indication of inadequate fixture. All screw connections
must be tightened in accordance with the stipulated values (note tightening torque levels). All fastening
screws must be free of damage, bends or deformations.
No supplementary parts may be welded or screwed on without the agreement of the manufacturer, as this can
impair the strength and represent a safety hazard for the machine operator. The drilling of holes or flame
cutting of recesses are not admissible in the area of the ROPS roof, as these can also impair strength.
