1.3.4 During operation
•
If unusual noises or vibrations occur while operating the leaf blower, stop the motor
immediately and consult a specialist. Checks must be carried out on the fan propeller;
otherwise, serious accidents may occur.
•
If persons or vehicles approach the danger area (25-m radius), the attachment must be
switched off immediately.
•
Never leave the operator console while moving.
•
Only leave the operator console when the tools on the attachment have come to a standstill.
•
Do not make any adjustments to the attachment during operation as this results in a risk of
accidents.
•
Carrying persons or objects is prohibited.
•
If the attachment has taken hold of a foreign body, for example, and is blocked, switch off the
auxiliary power unit, stop the motor and remove the ignition key. The attachment can then be
cleared of foreign bodies with a suitable tool. The work must be carried out with due care and
attention, as the components may be interlocked with one another and could slip abruptly.
•
In case of damage, switch off the attachment and have the damage repaired.
1.3.5 Maintenance, cleaning and repair work
•
Only the work described in this operating manual may be carried out to care for and maintain
the weed brush.
•
Only perform maintenance, cleaning and repair work when the auxiliary drive is switched off
and the motor is stopped.
•
If protective equipment and working tools are subject to wear, check them regularly and
replace if necessary.
•
Only use genuine spare parts from the manufacturer, as these comply with the technical
requirements and therefore minimize the risk of accidents. If genuine spare parts are not used,
the guarantee or warranty claim will become void.
•
Carry out cleaning work with a high-pressure cleaner, ensuring that the water jet is not aimed
directly at bearings, rotating parts, lubricating nipples, shaft sealing rings, wheel hubs, etc.
After every clean with the high-pressure cleaner, the lubricating points must be regreased.
Failure to comply with this requirement voids all warranty entitlements.
•
Check the moving parts for free movement and regrease as required.
•
After maintenance and cleaning work, always re-install the safety equipment and set it to
safety position.
•
Keep the machine clean to reduce the risk of fire.
•
Regularly check that nuts and bolts are tightly fitted and tighten if necessary.
•
For maintenance, cleaning and repair work on a raised unit, always use appropriate supports
to ensure safety.
•
Before repair work, make sure that the hydraulic system is depressurized as pressurized fluid
can penetrate the skin and cause serious injuries. If injuries of this kind occur, seek medical
attention immediately as there is a risk of infection.
•
Repairs may only be carried out by specialist personnel.
•
Inspect hydraulic hoses for damage and aging at regular intervals and replace if necessary.
Replace all hoses after a maximum of 6 years of operation. The date of manufacture is
embossed on the hose.
