In the case of extensive work with this machine, long-term vibration-induced damage cannot be ruled

out. For exact values of vibration measurement, refer to the Technical Data section.
Wear suitable clothing. Keep loose clothing, gloves, jewelry, and long hair away from moving/rotating

machine parts. Danger of being pulled!
Ensure that no other individuals are in the danger zone!


Electrical safety

3.7.1 Electric power supply for machinery of class rating I
The internal vibrator must be connected to a plug receptacle with a protective earth contact 15 A/16 A
with the corresponding overload fuse protection.
One of the following protective ground fault interrupters is necessary:
Standard protective ground fault interrupter (pulse current sensitive, type A).

All current sensitive protective ground fault interrupter (type B).

Only connect to electric power supplies if all machine parts are in a technically perfect condition.
The electric power supply must exhibit an intact grounded conductor connection (PE) and a protective
earth contact 15 A/16 A and corresponding overload fuse protection.
When connecting to fixed or mobile power units, at least one of the following safety devices must be
present:
Protective ground fault interrupter (GFI or GFCI).

Insulation monitor.

IT net.

When connecting a job site electrical distributor, it must be grounded!
Observe the respective national safety standards!
3.7.2 Extension cable
Do not operate the machine with damaged extension cables.

Use extension cables with grounded conductors and the correct grounded conductor terminal to plug

and coupling.
Only use tested extension cables! For job site use, Wacker Neuson H07RN-F, H07BQ-F, a SOOW-

cable or a country-specific equivalent design are recommended.
Cable drums and multi-pole plug receptacles must meet the same requirements as extension cables.

Protect extension cable, multi-pole plug receptacles, cable drums and connection couplings from

rain, snow or other forms of moisture.
