WARNING
Risk of fatal accidents.
Using attachments for lifting or transporting persons
may lead to fatal accidents with serious crushing
injury or death.
Never use attachments for lifting or transporting
persons.
Using the correct attachment for a particular job is
a deciding factor when it comes to the capacity of
the machine. The machine has either direct-
mounted attachments or attachments mounted in a
hydraulically controlled quick coupler which allows
rapid changes of attachments.
Always follow Volvo CE recommendations when
choosing attachments. If other attachments are
used, follow the operator’s manuals from the
respective supplier.
EU Machine Safety Directive is stated on the
product plate of the machine by the way of a CE
marking. Therefore, this marking also covers
attachments which are designed and marked by
Volvo CE, as they are an integrated part of the
machine and adapted to the machine. Volvo CE is
not responsible for attachments manufactured by
other companies. Such attachments must be CE
marked and accompanied by a Declaration of
Conformity and user instructions.
It is the responsibility of the machine owner to make
sure that the attachments are approved for
mounting on the machine. The machine owner is
responsible for the safety of the combination
machine – attachment.
For more detailed information regarding the choice
of attachments, contact a Volvo CE dealer.
The machine is prepared for various different
attachments, e.g. hammer and clamshell bucket. In
order to be able to connect these hydraulically to
the machine, the pressure in the hydraulics must be
released by moving the control levers in all
directions.
NOTE!
Depending on the attachments the stability of the
machine may vary.
