Transport, precautions
WARNING Risk of death due to suspended
loads
When lifting loads these can swing out and fall. This
can result in serious injuries or even death.
►
Never stand underneath or in the swinging range
of suspended loads.
►
Only move loads under supervision.
►
Only use approved lifting equipment and lifting
gear with sufficient load bearing capacity.
►
Do not use worn lifting gear (ropes, belts, chains,
shackles etc.).
►
Do not place lifting gear such as ropes and belts
on sharp edges or corners, do not knot these or
twist them.
►
When leaving the workplace, set down the load.
WARNING Injury due to swivelling load
When transporting the load by crane it can swivel
and cause severe injuries and considerable damage
to property.
►
Ensure that no personnel, objects or obstacles
are located in the swivel range of the load.
Hydraulic installation,
precautions
WARNING Hydraulic pressure too high
If the hydraulic pressure is too high, the parts of the
hydraulic attachment will be exposed to excessively
high loads. Parts can break loose or burst causing
serious injuries.
►
Lay the drain line of the pressure relief valve
directly in the tank to ensure the safe functioning
of the pressure relief valve!
►
The pressure relief valve must be set at the
maximum static pressure.
►
The pressure relief valve setting must be checked
to ensure that the maximum static pressure (see
chapter
Technical specifications
) of the hydraulic
installation is not exceeded at any time. Attach a
lead seal to the pressure relief valve.
►
Prior to their first use, the safety facilities on the
hydraulic installation must be checked by a
professional/authorised monitoring body for their
quality (CE mark etc.), suitability and proper
functioning.
►
If any significant changes are made to the
hydraulic installation, a new acceptance inspection
is to be carried out in accordance with the relevant
national safety provisions.
WARNING Hot hydraulic oil squirting out
The hydraulic system is under high pressure.
Hydraulic lines may spring a leak or burst. Hydraulic
oil squirting out can lead to serious injury.
►
When attaching the hydraulic attachment do not
lay any hydraulic lines through the carrier's cab.
►
Only use hydraulic lines which comply with the
following quality requirements:
●
For the function open and close
Hydraulic hoses with 4 reinforcement steel wires
according to DIN EN 856 4SH,
Hydraulic pipes, seamless cold-drawn steel pipes
according to DIN EN 10305
●
For the function turn
Hydraulic hoses with 2 steel plaitings according
to DIN EN 853 2SN,
Hydraulic pipes, seamless cold-drawn steel pipes
according to DIN EN 10305.
Media/consumables,
precautions
WARNING Hot hydraulic oil under high
pressure
Hydraulic oil will squirt out under high pressure if
there is a leakage. The jet of oil might penetrate
people's skin and cause permanent damage. Hot
hydraulic oil can cause burns.
►
Never use your hands to find leaks.
►
Always keep your face away from a possible leak.
►
If hydraulic oil has penetrated your skin consult a
doctor immediately.
WARNING Hydraulic oil spills
Spilt hydraulic oil can make a floor slippery. If people
slip they can be injured. Hydraulic oil is
environmentally harmful and must not penetrate the
ground or enter the water table or water supplies.
►
Make sure not to spill any hydraulic oil.
►
Immediately clean the floor if you have spilt
hydraulic oil.
►
Observe all safety and environmental protection
provisions when handling hydraulic oil.
