Sources of danger on the machine
Noise may damage your health
The noise development of the machine during operation may cause health damage such as
hardness of hearing, deafness or tinnitus. When using the machine at high rotational speed, the
noise level also increases.
Before the machine is started up for the first time, assess the danger by noise. Depending
on the ambient conditions, working hours and the working and operating conditions of the
machine, specify and use suitable hearing protection.
Specify rules for the use of hearing protection and for the working time.
During operation keep windows and doors of cabin closed.
Remove hearing protection for road travel.
Liquids under high pressure
The following liquids are under high pressure:
•
Hydraulic oil
Liquids escaping under high pressure may penetrate through the skin and cause severe
injuries.
Shut down and safeguard the machine and contact qualified specialist workshop upon
suspicion of damaged pressure system.
Never detect leaks with bare hands. Even a very pin-sized hole may lead to serious injuries.
When searching for leaks, use suitable aids, e.g. a piece of cardboard to avoid injuries.
Keep body and face away from leaks.
Consult a doctor immediately if liquid has penetrated in the body. The liquid must be
removed from the body as quickly as possible.
Hot liquids
If hot liquids are drained, people may burn and/or scald themselves.
When draining hot consumables, wear personal protective equipment.
Before performing any repair, maintenance or cleaning work, allow liquids and machine
parts to cool off, if necessary.
