5 Operation
5.1 Preparing the Machine for First Use
1. Make sure all loose packaging materials have been removed from the machine.
2. Check the machine and its components for damage. If there is visible damage,
do not operate the machine! Contact your Wacker Neuson dealer immediately
for assistance.
3. Take inventory of all items included with the machine and verify that all loose

retardant, and battery acid.
5. Move the machine to its operating location.

5.2 Break-in Period
New engines and hydraulic components require a break-in period to ensure
maximum efficiency. During the break-in period, the internal components of the
engine wear slightly and develop a tight seal.
The engine and hydraulics in this machine have a 50-hour break-in period.
