    Precautions Precautions 2.1. General safety regulations Work on the hydraulics control electronics may only be carried out by trained personnel who are well-acquainted with the control system, the machine and its safety regulations. ARNING Mounting, modification, repair and maintenance must be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's regulations.
  • Page 6: Construction Regulations

    Precautions 2.1.1. Construction regulations AUTION The vehicle must be equipped with an emergency stop which disconnects the supply voltage to the control system's electrical units. The emergency stop must be easily accessible to the operator. The machine must be built if possible, so that the supply voltage to the control system's electrical units is disconnected when the operator leaves the operator’s station.
