Operation
Introduction
The aim of this part of the handbook is to guide the operator step-by-step through the task of
learning how to operate the machine efficiently and safely. Read the OPERATION section
through from beginning to end.
Before starting the machine, sit in the drivers seat and familiarize yourself with the layout of
the cab. Use your handbook to identify each control lever, switch, gauge, button and pedal. Do
not guess. If there is anything you do not understand, ask your KNEGT distributor.
When you have familiarized yourself with the operating controls, gauges and switches, practice
using them. Drive the machine in an open space, clear of people. Get to know the 'feel' of the
machine and its driving controls.
Finally, do not rush the job of learning, make sure you fully understand everything in the
OPERATION section. Take your time and work efficiently and safely
Remember
-
BE CAREFUL
- BE ALERT
- BE SAFE
The following checks should be made each time you return to the machine after leaving it for
any period of time. We advise you to also stop the machine occasionally during long work
sessions and do the checks again.
All these checks concern the serviceability of the machine. Some concern your safety. Get your
service engineer to check and correct any defects.
1. Check for cleanliness.
a .Clean the light lenses.
