Electrical system
•
When working on the electrical system, always disconnect the
battery (negative terminal).

Only use the prescribed fuses. If fuses are used with too high a
rating, the electrical system will be destroyed – danger of fire.

Ensure that the battery is connected correctly - firstly connect the
positive terminal and then connect the negative terminal. When
disconnecting the battery, disconnect the negative terminal first,
followed by the positive terminal.

•
Risk of explosion: avoid the production of sparks or the presence
of naked flames in the vicinity of the battery.

The machine can be equipped with electronic components, the
function of which may be influenced by electromagnetic interfer-
ence from other units. Such interference can pose risks to peo-

In the case of retrofitting of electrical units and/or compo-
nents on the machine, with a connection to the on-board

Ensure that the retrofitted electrical and electronic compo-
nents comply with the EMC directive 2004/108/EEC in the
appropriate version and carry the CE label.
