USE OF THE MACHINE
3.6.5.3 MAXIMUM IMMERSION DEPTH
DANGER
•
If it is necessary to work with the machine immersed in water on on river banks or sea shores, always
check the water depth and the current flow.
•
Make sure that the surface on which you are working is sufficiently firm.
If it is necessary to work with the machine immersed in water, make sure that the maximum depth does not ex-
ceed the upper structure rotation ball-bearing ring and in any case that the engine cooling fan does not touch the
water, since it may get damaged or even break.
CAUTION
•
When working in water or on muddy ground, lubricate the articulations more frequently than usual.
•
After work, remove any dirt or mud and lubricate the articulations.
