The Dynapac "Guideline for the correct and proper use of feeders" is included in the
scope of delivery of this device. The guidelines are part of the present operating in-
structions and must always be heeded. National regulations are fully applicable.
The vehicle described in these operating instructions is a feeder which is used as a
transportation and conveyor system for paving materials for paver finishers and which
forwards material accepted from transport vehicles to paver finishers.
Roll-down or lean-mixed concrete, track-laying ballast and unbound mineral aggregates
for paving foundations are suitable paving materials.
The feeder must be used, operated and maintained according to the specifications in
these operating instructions. Any other use is regarded as improper and can cause
injury to persons or damage to the feeder or other assets.
Any use going beyond the range of applications described above is regarded as im-
proper use and is expressly forbidden! Especially in those cases where the feeder is
to be operated on inclines or where it is to be used for special purposes (construction
of dumps, dams), it is absolutely necessary to contact the manufacturer.
Duties of the operator:
An operator within the meaning of these operating instruc-
tions is defined as any natural or legal person who either uses the feeder himself or
on whose behalf it is used. In special cases (e.g. leasing or renting), the operator is
considered to be the person who, in accordance with existing contractual agreements
between the owner and the user of the feeder, is charged with the observance of the
operating duties.
The operator must ensure that the feeder is only used in the proper manner and that
all danger to the life and limb of the user or third parties is avoided. In addition to this,
it must be ensured that the relevant accident prevention regulations and other safety-
related provisions as well as the operating, servicing and maintenance guidelines are
observed. The operator must also ensure that all persons operating the feeder have
read and understood the present operating instructions.
Mounting of attachments:
The feeder can only be operated with paver finishers and
paving materials that have been approved by the manufacturer. Mounting or installa-
tion of additional facilities that interfere with or supplement the functions of the feeder
are only permissible after written approval has been obtained from the manufacturer.
If necessary, approval must be obtained from local authorities.
Any approval obtained from local authorities does not, however, make approval by
the manufacturer unnecessary.
