Servo brake safety device
The braking system is also equipped with a
power accumulator in order to ensure a certain
number of brakings, also when the engine is
off.
Therefore, press the brake pedal completely
down before moving the vehicle, when the
engine is on, so that the above mentioned safety
accumulator is automatically loaded.
In case of system power lack a warning light
on the warning light block located on the right
side box lights up (see. pag. 17 pos.
L8)
If maintenance and repair work is not carried out correctly there is high
risk of serious personnel injury. If you have any doubts regarding
maintenance procedures contact your
Ahlmann
distributor.
A raised operating arm or driver less machine movement could cause
serious injury. Before carrying out any maintenance work proceed as
follows:
1. Park the vehicle on the flat.
2. Lower the operating arm until it is resting on the ground.
3. Turn off the engine (thermal).
4. Chock the wheel to keep the vehicle in place.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
BASIC MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
Observe the maintenance schedules carefully: read the hour counter every day. When
doing maintenance work position the vehicle on a solid, obstacle-free stretch of ground
and set the bucket down. Unless specifically stated otherwise, all maintenance work
must be carried out with the engine OFF and the ignition keys removed. It is good
practice to let the engine cool down before starting work.
Before lubricating clean the nipples. Clean the outer edges of plugs and filler holes
before pouring in oil. No dirt or dust must get into parts or circuits.
Locking bar working
Locking bar not working
Whenever maintenance work is being done place a sign which says “DO NOT START”
on the dashboard. Never abandon the cab with the engine running.
Never carry out modifications without authorisation. Unauthorised modifications may
cause serious injury.
IMPORTANT:
if the machine is used in a particularly tough environment (dusty, corro-
sive etc.) carry out maintenance work more frequently.
IMPORTANT:
strictly observe all machine filter change schedules. Engine life depends
on filter cleanliness.
The hour counter lets you know when its is
time to carry out maintenance. With the engine
running the counter works as a clock.
Maintenance schedules are clearly stated in
order to make machine operation safe and
efficient.
Note:
A separate manual giving more detailed
diesel engine
maintenance
information will be supplied with every vehicle.
Should maintenance work require the bucket to be in raised position,
position the lock bar (which prevents the loader booms to come down)
against the lift cylinder head.
