Starting with jump wires

Fig. 40
A wrong connection will cause severe
damage in the electric system�
Bridge the machine only with a 12 Volt auxiliary
•
battery.
When jump starting with an external battery
•
connect both plus poles first.
Then connect the ground cable first to the minus
•
pole of the current supplying auxiliary battery
and then to engine or chassis ground, as far away
from the battery as possible (Fig. 40).
Start as described under "Starting the engine".
•
Once the engine is running switch on a powerful
•
consumer (working light, etc.).
if no powerful consumer is switched
on voltage peaks may occur when
separating the connecting cables
between the batteries, which could
damage electrical components�
After starting disconnect the negative poles
•
(ground cable) first and the positive poles after.
Switch off the consumer

Driving the machine

Danger of accident!
wet and loose soils considerably reduce
the ground adhesion of the machine on
inclinations and slopes�
Soil conditions and weather influences
impair the gradability of the machine�
Do not drive up and down inclinations
exceeding the maximum gradability of
the machine (see technical data)�
Do not drive without wearing your seat
belt�
Always give way to loaded transport
vehicles! Before starting to drive make
sure that the drive range is absolutely
safe�
Always keep the cabin door closed
while driving with the machine� with
the door opened and the machine fully
articulated extreme oscillations of the
machine may damage the door�
