NOTICE
With certain attachment combinations there is a risk
that the attachment may strike the cab. Avoid
damage by being careful when working close to the
machine.
Never swing the bucket or load above people.
Never use the bucket for chopping.
If uncontrolled movements should occur, first
release levers and pedals, then shut off the
engine immediately by turning the ignition switch
to the stop position.
If red warning lamps light up and/or the buzzer is
sounding, the engine must be stopped
immediately and the cause investigated.
The machine must not be equipped with a larger
bucket/attachment than permitted.
When using equipment which generate knocks or
vibrations, for example hammer, the hydraulic
cylinders must not be operated closer than 10 cm
(4 in) from their end-of -stroke positions.
In case of fire, the battery disconnect switch
should be turned off.
Loading on to a vehicle
WARNING
Risk of crushing.
Material may fall off when loading a vehicle.
Make sure that no persons are standing near the
vehicle while loading.
If possible, position the machine higher than the
vehicle to be loaded.
Place the vehicle to be loaded so that the
machine does not have to swing and lift more than
necessary.
Make sure that the driver of the vehicle to be
loaded stays outside the working area of the
machine and never swing the bucket over the cab
of the vehicle to be loaded.
Do not load the vehicle unevenly and avoid
unnecessary spillage when loading. Do not make
the load so high that earth and stones fall over the
platform sides.
Release the load carefully.
