3.4 Machine inspection
Before using the machine, a visual check must be carried out by a competent, authorised person to discover any possible problems.
This inspection mainly includes visual and functional checks.
This inspection phase is carried out to ensure that the different elements are in good condition and have not suffered from any damage during transport or
storage.
• Check on protective guards and moulded units (this check is made with the engine at a standstill)
Carry out a visual check to make sure that there are no external defects, deformations, superficial cracks, marks, wear or corrosion.
• Check the fuel level (this check is made with the engine at a standstill)
Check the fuel level and add fuel if required (
• Check operational elements (these checks are made with the engine at a standstill)
- Check that the following elements operate correctly: the accelerator trigger, the accelerator trigger lock and the combined action lever. All these devices
must move freely and not have undergone any modifications.
- Check that the disc rotates freely.
• Check safety devices
- Make sure that the handles are clean and dry.
- Start the engine (
: See §4.3 "Starting up the machine") and check that it stops when the combined action lever is turned to the '0' position.
- Make sure that the disc does not rotate when the accelerator trigger is released (See §5.1.4 "Carburettor" if any adjustments are required)
- On models MTZ 350AS and MTZ 400AS, check that the safety system works correctly for preventing the rail-cutting machine being used without its
guiding vice. To do this, start up the engine (
