working and local conditions you are working - private or pub-
lic safety regulations of the respective country and the liabil-
ity association must be strictly observed.
The wheel loader is in accordance with the construction and oper-
ating instructions of the motor vehicle construction and use regu-
lation.
Since being awarded with the "type approval" the machine may be
operated on public roads.

presented to authorized persons on request.
The loader may only be operated on public roads with the
equipment specified in the type approval or in the exceptional
