OPERATION RP850G / RP850D
Starting in enclosed spaces, tunnels, mines or deep
ditches
Engine exhaust fumes are highly dangerous!
For this reason, when operating the machine in
enclosed spaces, tunnels, mines or deep ditches, it is
important to ensure that there is sufficient air to breathe
(see UVV “Construction Work”, VBG 37, paragraphs
40 and 41).
MACHINE CONTROL
Operating devices that adjust themselves automatically
when released in normal use must be locked.
Check protective devices and brakes for proper
functioning prior to operation.
When reversing, particularly on the edges and banks of
ditches, as well as in front of obstacles, the machine
operator can fall or be crushed.
Always keep a safe distance away from the edges and
banks of ditches and refrain from any actions that could
cause the machine to topple over.
Always control the machine so that hand injuries
through hard objects are avoided.
Always ascend slopes carefully in a direct path.
Reverse up steep slopes to prevent the machine from
toppling over onto the machine operator.
If faults on the safety devices or other faults
detrimental to the safe operation of the machine are
notices, operation of the machine must be stopped
immediately and the faults remedied.
When undertaking compaction work in the vicinity of
buildings or above pipelines and similar, check the
effect of the vibrations on the buildings and pipes and
stop compaction work if necessary.
PARKING THE MACHINE
Park the machine on a firm, level surface.
Shut down the drive and secure it to prevent accidental
movement and unauthorized use. If available, close the
fuel valve. Do not place or store equipment with
integrated moving gear on the chassis. The moving
gear is intended only for transportation purposes.
FILLING FUEL
Only fill fuel with the engine shut down. No open fire,
do not smoke. Do not spill any fuel, collect
discharging fuel in a suitable container and prevent fuel
from seeping into the soil. Ensure that the filler cap is
tight. Leaky fuel tanks constitute an explosion hazard
and must therefore be replaced immediately.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
Observe the maintenance, inspection and adjustments
and intervals specified in the operating instructions, as
well as the information for part replacement.
Maintenance work must be undertaken only by
qualified and authorized persons.
Maintenance and repairs must only be undertaken with
the drive stationary.
Only carry out maintenance and repairs when the
machine is parked on a firm and even surface and is
secured to prevent it from rolling.
When changing larger assemblies and individual
components, only use suitable and perfectly
functioning hoisting and lifting gear with suitable
bearing capacity. Attach and secure parts to lifting gear
carefully!
Spare parts must comply with the technical
requirements of the manufacturer. Therefore only use
original spare parts.
Before working on hydraulic lines, these must
previously be rendered pressureless. Hydraulic oil
discharging under pressure can cause serious injuries.
Work on hydraulic devices must be undertaken only by
persons with a special knowledge of hydraulics and the
necessary experience.
