system
When working on the electrical system, always disconnect the
battery (negative terminal).
Only use the prescribed fuses. If fuses are used that are too
highly rated, the electrical system will be destroyed – risk 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.
Always place the appropriate cover over the positive battery
terminal. If there is accidental earth contact, there is a risk of
explosion
Risk of explosion: avoid the production of sparks or the presence
of naked flames in the vicinity of the battery.
The implement may be equipped with electronic components
whose function is influenced by electromagnetic interference
from other units. Such interference can pose risks to people, if
the following safety information is not followed.
In the case of retrofitting electrical units and/or components
on the implement, with a connection to the on-board power
supply, the operator is responsible for checking whether the
installation might cause faults on the vehicle electronics or
other components.
Ensure that the retrofitted electrical and electronic
components comply with the EMC directive 89/336/EEC in
the appropriate version and carry the CE mark.
