Safety instructions
2.12 Working near overhead electric lines
Touching overhead electric lines poses a death hazard!
Death hazard due to electric shock!
☞ During machine operation, maintain a safe distance from overhead electric
lines!
☞ If work must be performed close to overhead lines, the equipment/attach-
ments must be kept well away from them.
• If no sufficient distance can be kept to overhead electric lines, the machine operator
must take other safety measures, for example switching off the current, in agreement
with the owner or operator of the lines.
• If an energized line is touched nevertheless:
• Do not leave the machine
• Drive the machine out of the danger zone
• Warn others against approaching and touching the machine
• Have the live wire de-energized
• The operator must not touch any metallic parts
• Do not leave the machine until the line that has been touched or damaged has been
safely de-energized!
2.13 Safety instructions for maintenance
• Avoid any operational mode that might be prejudicial to safety!
• Operational readiness and the service life of machines are heavily dependent on
maintenance.
• It is therefore in the interest of the machine owner to perform the mandatory maintenance.
• The manufacturer requires the owner to perform maintenance under all circumstances.
Otherwise warranty shall not be given in full.
• Observe the adjustment, maintenance and inspection activities and intervals set forth in the
Operator’s Manual, including information on the replacement of parts/partial equipment! These
activities may only be performed by a Wacker Neuson service center.
• The machine may not be serviced, repaired or test-driven by unauthorized personnel.
• Brief operating personnel/operator before beginning special operations and mainte-
nance! Appoint a person to supervise the activities!
• In any work concerning the operation, conversion or adjustment of the machine and its
safety-oriented devices, or any work related to maintenance, inspection and repair,
observe the start-up and shut-down procedures set forth in the Operator’s Manual, and
the information on maintenance.
• If required, secure the maintenance area appropriately!
