2.10 Explosion and fire,
precautions
DANGER Explosion and fire
Explosions cause serious injury or death.
If the hydraulic attachment encounters explosives in op-
eration, it may cause an explosion.
u Never operate the hydraulic attachment in the direct
vicinity of explosives.
u Make sure that no explosives are hidden in the
ground.
u Check gas line position plans of the complete con-
struction area.
DANGER Explosion and fire
Operating the hydraulic attachment may create sparks
which ignite highly flammable gases.
This may lead to fire or an explosion.
u Never work in an environment with highly flammable
substances.
u Make sure that there are no hidden sources of gas in
the work area.
u Check gas line position plans of the complete con-
struction area.
DANGER Explosion and fire
Dust-rich air can form an explosive atmosphere which
may ignite when operating the hydraulic attachment.
This may lead to fire or an explosion.
u Never operate the hydraulic attachment in an explo-
sion-hazard atmosphere.
u Always provide sufficient ventilation when working in
buildings or in a confined area.
2.11 Electrical shock, precautions
DANGER Electrical shock
Any contact of the hydraulic attachment with electric cir-
cuits or other sources of electricity will lead to an electric
shock, resulting in serious injury or death. The hydraulic
attachment is not electrically insulated.
u Never work in the vicinity of electric circuits or other
sources of electricity.
u Make sure that there are no hidden circuits in the
work area.
u Check wiring diagrams.
2.12 Falling stones, precautions
DANGER Fragments flying around
Fragments of material which come loose while operating
the hydraulic attachment may be flung away and can
cause serious injury if people are hit by them. Small ob-
jects falling from a great height can also cause serious
damage.
During hydraulic attachment operation the danger zone
is considerably greater than during the excavation oper-
ation due to fragments of stone and pieces of steel flying
around, and for this reason the danger zone must, de-
pending on the type of material to be worked on, be en-
larged correspondingly, or secured in a suitable manner
through corresponding measures.
u Secure the danger zone.
u Ensure that no persons are within a distance of 15m
(50ft) during cutting work.
u Ensure that no persons are within a distance of 50m
(165ft) during cutting work on reinforced steel.
u Stop the hydraulic attachment immediately if anyone
enters the danger zone.
u Close the windscreen and the side windows of the
driver's cab.
u The cabin of the hydraulic carrier must be protected
by means of suitable measures (e.g. armoured glass,
min. class P4A according to DINEN356) against
damage due to flying rock.
u Make sure no flying fragments can leave the danger
zone (e.g. safety fence).
