This Operators Manual is a comprehensive formulation of the directives and obligations
necessary to be undertaken before and after any operation is performed, including
maintenance and storage. It is important that each operator reads and understands this
manual completely before trying to use the associated machine. This will reduce the chance
of injury to both the user and persons around the machine, as well as reducing the likelihood
of machine misuse which could result in part failure and/or significantly reduce the service
life of the machine. Sumo will not accept liability for any injuries or damage caused from
negligence, use in extreme conditions, or failing to comply with the instructions within this
manual.
These machines have been designed to take Sumo manufactured spares; non-genuine
parts/accessories/modifications may damage the machine as they are untested and not
recommended for use with the Sumo machine. Sumo will not honour warranty claims if
deemed to be caused using non-genuine parts or accessories. Conversions of/ or
modifications to the machine may only be carried out after consultation with Sumo.
As well as reading the instructions of operation contained within this manual, a trained technician
or dealer should also instruct you on the correct and safe use of the machine and maintenance of
the machine to ensure a long service life.
Training by Sumo is required for the following operations; loading for truck transportation,
commissioning of new machines, advanced troubleshooting and repair. Any repair work to
structural components of the machine must be carried out by Sumo or a workshop approved
by Sumo, otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
Please note, specifications, descriptions and illustrations in this manual are accurate, at the
time of publication but may be subject to change. If you notice any discrepancy and are in
need of clarification, please contact us using the details given previously.
