4. SAFE LOADING AND TRANSPORT
OF THE EXCAVATOR
1.
Observe all regulations concerning the
transport of excavators on public roads.
2.
Use adequately long and robust ramps
when loading on a truck. (for details see
"TRANSPORTING THE EXCAVATOR ON
ATRUCK")
3.
Do not change the
and to avoid a tipping over, do not try to
swing the attachment crosswise to the
loading ramps.
4.
After loading of the excavator on a truck,
engage the swing lock pin.
Lower the attachment on the loading
plane and release the pressure from the
hydraulic system.
Block the tracks with blocks and wire
down the excavator. After loading the
excavator on a truck, tie down the
undercarriage of the excavator with a
strong steel wire on the truck.

5.
Do not brake abruptly with the excavator
loaded. Mortal accidents could happen.
6.
If the excavator is used to tow another
machine, the load must be smaller than
the strength of the hook.
7.
Do not use hooks on the roof of canopy
for lifting the excavator.
Max. drawbar pull at
coupling hook
Max. vertical load at
coupling hook
5. MAINTENANCE
Before doing maintenance work on the
excavator, place the machine on a firm, flat
and level surface, Iower the attachments on
the ground, stop the engine then remove
the key and release the cylinder pressure
by actuating the levers. When dismantling
hydraulic parts, make sure that the hydraulic
oil has cooled down sufficiently to avoid
burns.
Start maintenance work carefully, e.g. loosen
screws slowly so that oil will not squirt out.
1.
Before doing work on the engine, the
exhaust system, the radiator and the
hydraulics, let the excavator cool down
sufficiently.
2.
Turn off the engine at all times when
filling with fuel. Avoid spilling and over-
filling of fuel.
3.
Smoking is prohibited while tanking
and handling the battery! Keep sparks
and fire away from the fuel tank and
battery. Flammable gases escape from
the battery, especially during charging.
4.
Do not use or
type battery if the fluid level is below
the LOWER (lower limit level) mark.
Otherwise, the battery component parts
may prematurely deteriorate, which
may shorten the battery's service life
or cause an explosion. Check the fluid
level regularly and add distilled water as
required so that the fluid level is between
the UPPER and LOWER levels.
5.
Read and follow "STARTING WITH AN
AUXILIARY BATTERY" in "OPERATION
OF THE ENGINE", when starting with an
auxiliary battery.
