Safety when lifting and supporting the machine
When lifting or supporting machine parts, use equipment with a lifting capacity that equals at least the weight of
the part in question.
All lifting devices, such as straps, slings, ratchet blocks, must comply with governing national regulations for lifting
devices. We will not accept any responsibility if any lifting devices, tools or work methods are used other than those
described in this publication.
If a jack is to be used, make sure that the ground or floor is even and is sufficiently firm or strong to support the
expected load.
Prevent the machine from rolling by applying the parking brake and placing suitable wedges on both sides of the
wheels which are not to be raised off the ground.
Always use a jack with sufficient lifting capacity and position the jack according to instructions for the work that is
to be done.
Make sure that the jack is correctly positioned and is at the correct angle to the lifting point on the machine.
Take care to position supports under the machine in a safe way.
