Please store the Operator’s Manual in the storage bin under the engine cover.
This Operator’s Manual contains important information on how to work safely, correctly
and economically with the machine. Therefore, it aims not only at new operators, but it also
serves as a reference for experienced ones. It helps to avoid hazardous situations and
reduce repair costs and downtimes. Furthermore, the reliability and the service life of the
machine will be increased by following the instructions in the Operator’s Manual. This is
why
the Operator’s Manual must always be kept at hand in the machine.
Your own safety, as well as the safety of others, depends to a great extent on how the
machine is moved and operated. Therefore, carefully read and understand this Operator’s
Manual prior to the first drive. This Operator’s Manual will help to familiarize yourself more
easily with the machine, thereby enabling you to use it more safely and efficiently.
Prior to the first drive, carefully read chapter “Safety Instructions” as well, in order to be
prepared for possible dangerous situations, as it will be too late for it during operation. As a
rule, keep the following in mind:
Careful and prudent working is the best way to avoid accidents!
Operational safety and readiness of the machine do not only depend on your skill, but also
on maintenance and servicing of the machine. This is why regular maintenance and ser-
vicing is absolutely necessary. Extensive maintenance and repair work must always be
performed by an expert with appropriate training. Insist on using original spare parts when
performing maintenance and repair work. This ensures operational safety and readiness of
your machine, and maintains its value.
