Shatter protection (option)
Piercing/penetration hazard by objects from the front!
Causes severe injury or death.
► A shatter protection must be installed on a canopy version if
an attachment (a hammer, for example) causes fragments to
fly around. This shatter protection takes over the function of a
front window.
► Pay attention to the restricted work range (see fig. 99/100)
► Machine operation is prohibited without a shatter protection.
Accident hazard in conditions of restricted visibility due to
rain, snowfall, dust etc.
Can cause severe injury or death.
► Stop machine operation immediately.
Only a Wacker Neuson service center may install the shatter
protection for the first time.
Do not use brushes, steel wool or other abrasive cleaners for
cleaning the polycarbonate disc. Do not wipe dust in a dry state.
The shatter protection (canopy option) protects the operator
against fragments from the front.
► The machine owner must ensure that the hazard situation is
evaluated and that the national regulations are observed.
► The machine owner must ensure that only work is performed
that does not require any higher protection.
► Accidents cannot be fully avoided despite equipping a
machine with protective structures.
The shatter protection cannot be combined with a protective Front Guard
structure.
