Safety instructions
Prerequisite for safe use
• It is forbidden to stay under suspended loads, in the risk zone or under the machine’s
attachment, and near cables when guiding loads.
• The machine operator and the person attaching or securing the load must have visual
contact.
• Persons guiding the load or securing it must stay in visual contact with the machine
operator. Should this not be possible, ask another person to guide.
• The machine operator must guide the load the nearest possible to the ground and
avoid any oscillating or swinging movements.
• Perform smooth, slow movements with the machine.
• Use cables to guide the load.
• Bear in mind the weather conditions (for example wind force, etc.).
• The machine may be driven with a raised load only if the path of the machine is level.
• The machine operator must not raise loads over persons.
• The machine operator may not leave his seat as long as the load is raised.
2.12 Attachments
• Prior to driving on public roads remove all attachments which cannot be secured in
compliance with the legal regulations of your country.
• Attachments and counterweights affect handling and the machine’s steering capability.
• Fit the attachments with the specially required devices only.
• Before uncoupling or coupling hydraulic lines (hydraulic quick couplers)
• Stop the engine.
• Release the pressure in the hydraulic system. In order to do so, move the control
levers of the hydraulic control units back and forth a couple of times.
• Coupling attachments requires special care.
• Secure the attachments against unintentional movement.
• Operate the machine only if all protective facilities have been installed and are
functional, and if all brake, light and hydraulic connections have been connected.
• If optional equipment is installed, all lighting equipment, indicator lights etc. that are
required in addition must be installed and functional.
• Install attachments only if the engine is stopped and the drive is switched off.
• Especially when driving or working with machines equipped with a quickhitch for the
attachments, ensure that the attachment is securely locked in the quickhitch. The lock
pin must be visible on either side of the bores on the attachment. Check again before
starting work.
• Raise the control lever base before installing attachments on the stick.
• Be careful when coupling attachments to the machine: risk of injury due to crushing and
shearing. Ensure that nobody is between the machine and the attachment.
