Care and maintenance

Inappropriate care and maintenance puts the
operational safety of the machine at risk. This
can lead to accidents with severe or even fatal
physical injuries.
Conform with prescribed schedules for repeti-
¾
tive tests or inspections.
Service the machine according to the main-
¾
tenance plan, see chapter "Care and main-
tenance".
Only perform the work described in these
¾
operating instructions.
Before starting maintenance and service work
¾
park the machine on level and firm ground and
secure it against rolling away.
De-pressurise the hydraulic system and lower
¾
or support the implement.
Prior to working on the electrical system,
¾
disconnect it from the electric current supply.
Before cleaning the machine with high pres-
¾
sure cleaning equipment cover all openings,
which should stay clear of water, steam or
cleaning agents for reasons of safety or
operation. Do not aim the water jet directly
on electric or electronic components and
bearings.
When cleaning with high pressure or steam
¾
cleaning equipment keep a distance of at least
50 cm to machine components.
After cleaning, check all hydraulic lines for
¾
leaks and loose connections.
Check for chafing and signs of other damage.

Remedy any faults immediately!
Screw connections loosened for the purpose
¾
of care and maintenance work must be

¾
which are not described in the operating
instructions, must only be carried out by
an authorized professional workshop or
by an operator who has been trained by
