2.19 Monitoring and inspections
The machine must be submitted to a general
inspection according to the existing UVV-
regulations (Accident Prevention Regulations).
This inspection must be carried out by an expert
(e.g. machine engineer or machine foreman):
•
before the machine is put into operation for the
first time and before the machine is again put
into operation when essential modifications
have been made
•
at least once a year
•
in the meantime, according to operating
conditions and local environments
The results of this inspection have to be recorded
in writing and this record has to be kept until the
next inspection takes place.
Prior to every work shift, the machine operator
must check the earth-moving machine according to
the inspection and maintenance plan.
Hydraulic hoses must be replaced as soon as the
following damage is recognized:
•
Damage to the outer layer which reaches the
intermediate layer
•
Embrittled patches on the outer layer
•
Deformations when under pressure or without
pressure which differ from the original shape of
the installed hose
•
Leaks
•
Damage to hose fittings or to the connection
between the fitting and the hose
The coolant level shall only be checked after the
engine has cooled down; the cap must be turned
carefully in order to let off excess pressure.
Prior to operations, the machine operator must
check the function of the safety devices.
The machine operator must advise the supervisor
immediately - and his replacement, if there is a
change of operator - with regard to any
shortcomings.
In the event of shortcomings which jeopardize the
operating safety of the earth-moving machine, it
shall not be used until these have been eliminated.
2.20 Fire protection
•
Before refueling the tank of the machine, the
engine must be stopped. Exercise special
caution as long as the engine is hot.
•
Never smoke or handle open flames whilst
refueling the tank of the machine.
The fire extinguisher must be kept in the
cab. The fire extinguisher symbol must be
attached.
2.21 Emergency exit
The right-hand cab door acts as an emergency
exit.
2.22 Other dangers
Failure of the hydraulic system
If the hydraulic system fails because the diesel
engine is not running, the hydraulic pump is
damaged or hydraulic oil has been lost, only the
EMERGENCY function lower work equipment
can be performed.
