Servicing and specific maintenance work on the engine may only be performed by
companies or persons expressly authorised for this purpose by Volvo. Volvo main-
tenance vouchers must be completed by these persons or companies to confirm
completion of the work. Without these maintenance vouchers properly completed,
any warranty or statutory warranty of the engine manufacturer lapses.
We expressly reserve the right to make technical modifications for the purpose of
improving our machines or increasing the safety standards – even without specific
notification.
All information about directions given in this operating manual (front, rear, right,

Please have the machine serviced according to regulations. Comply with the infor-
mation given in this operating manual and have parts subject to wear replaced in
due time respectively ensure timely repairs. Have the machine respectively main-
tained or repaired according to regulations.

leads to loss of performance and therefore to loss of time.

before the machine is operated further, since otherwise heavy damage or costly
repairs to the machine may be caused.
