2.10 Measures for avoiding risks
Tires
• Have repair work on the tires only performed by trained technical
personnel.
• Check the tires for correct pressure and visible damage (for example
cracks, cuts).
• Tighten the wheel nuts to the specified tightening torque. (see chapter
7.18 Tires/tracks).
• Use only approved tires.
• The machine must have identical tires (for example profile, revolutions
per mile).
Tracks
• Repair work on tracks may only be performed by trained technicians.
• Check the tracks for correct tension and visible damage (for example
cracks, cuts).
• Proceed with extreme care on slippery ground (for example on steel
plates, ice), increased slipping hazard.
• Use only approved tracks.
Hydraulic and compressed-air system
• Check all lines, hoses and threaded fittings regularly for leaks and
visible damage.
• Splashed oil can cause injury and fire.
• Leaking hydraulic and compressed-air lines can cause the full loss of
the brake effect.
• Have damage and leaks immediately repaired by a Wacker Neuson
service center.
• Have hydraulic hoses replaced by a Wacker Neuson service center
within stipulated intervals even if no visual defects can be detected.
Electrical system
• Use only fuses with the specified current rating.
• In case of damage or malfunction in the electrical system:
- Put the machine out of operation immediately and secure it against restart
- Disconnect the battery or operate the battery master switch
- Have the malfunction repaired
• Ensure that work on the electrical system is only performed by trained
technical personnel.
• Have the electrical system checked regularly and malfunctions repaired
immediately (for example loose connections, scorched cables).
• The operating voltage of machine, the attachment and the trailer must
be the same (for example 12 V).
