1 Safety regulations for maintenance
Always comply with Health & Safety and Fire Prevention regulations when carrying
out maintenance work. Always wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment.
If not otherwise stated, always switch of the engine before carrying out maintenance
work.
Carry out all maintenance work on flat, firm ground.
When working in confined spaces, ensure that exhaust gases are vented to atmos-
phere. Provide adequate ventilation.
Before starting maintenance work, secure the machine to prevent accidental starting,
rolling or lowering. To do this, take the following precautions:
- Move drive lever into neutral centre position then set machine feed to „Zero“ using
the preselector.
- Remove ignition key and main battery isolator.
- Attach „DO NOT START“ panel to control panel in clearly visible location.
- When working below the machine, always secure the frame to prevent it from low-
ering accidentally and always wear a safety hat.
- If necessary, fit chocks under wheels to prevent machine from starting to roll
away.
If safety and guards need to be removed for maintenance work, always ensure that
they are reinstalled before the machine goes back into service.
Never use highly flammable substances for cleaning work.
Keep ladders and (access) steps free of grease and in non-slip condition at all times.
When using a high pressure cleaner or a steam jetter to spray down the machine,
never subject electrical components, electronic assemblies, insulation materials and
fans to a direct jet of water or steam and cover them up whenever and wherever pos-
sible.
