Never do any welding near a tire. The tire MUST be removed before
doing any welding.
Machine structure complies with FOPS and ROPS safety standards. Any
modifications (drilling, welding etc.) may annul compliance with such
standards.
Stickers
An illegible or missing sticker could have serious consequences. Check
them every day.
Ensure that all stickers are perfectly legible. Replace them with new ones
if ruined, missing or faded. Should a sticker-carrying part be replaced
make sure you put a new sticker on the new part.
A spark or naked flame could cause the hydrogen in one of the batteries to
explode. To prevent explosions always observe the following rules:
-When disconnecting the battery cables always detach the negative cable
(-) first.
-When reconnecting the battery cables always connect the negative cable
(-) last.
-Never short circuit the battery terminals with two pieces of metal.
-Never weld, carry out adjustments or smoke near the battery.
Engine electric and/or exhaust systems may give off sparks. If operating in
an area which might contain inflammable vapours ventilate it properly
before utilising the machine.
Always keep a fire extinguisher within reach in the cab. Make sure that it
is serviced regularly in compliance with the maker’s instructions.
Periodically clean the vehicle. Remove all possibly inflammable deposits.
Inspect for leaks, replace damaged hoses, piping and connecting pieces.
After repair work has been completed clean the vehicle before using it.
Before carrying out maintenance work on the vehicle still warm, pay special
attention to hot fluids and components which may cause burns.
When checking tire pressure or inflating the tire always position yourself
in line with tire tread, not in front of the tire wall. When removing a wheel
from the vehicle always use an inflation cage. Keep all personnel well
away from the area.
Preventing fire and explosions
Engine fuel could provoke an explosion or a fire.
- Never fill up the fuel tank with the engine running.
- Never smoke during refuelling.
- Take all necessary safety precautions during welding and adjustment
work or in the presence of naked flames.
E’ assolutamente vietato l’avviamento e l’utilizzo della macchina in am-
bienti a rischio di incendi o di eplosioni.
Always use a non-flammable solvent when cleaning parts.
