Maintenance
Maintenance instructions 57
– Replace the seat belt immediately if it shows signs of wear,
damage or if it has been under load during an accident.
– Do not leave any tools or other objects in the machine.
– Reinstall all protective covering and guards before starting the
engine.
– Before starting the engine in closed rooms ensure adequate
ventilation.
The battery disconnecting switch must always be switched off for
longer resting periods of the machine and for repair work in the
electric system.
For electric welding the earth terminal must be connected directly
to the part to be welded. Disconnect the battery completely and
pull of or unscrew all plug connections from the central electric
system.
Before welding, grinding and torch cutting paints must be stripped
in an area of at least 10 cm / 4' in around the affected location.
Heated paints emit health threatening vapours which could cause
irritations and highly health damaging effects in case of repetitive
contact.
Apart from the health damaging effects, paint also results in a poor
connection of the weld which could cause a later failure of the com-
ponent. Therefore you should never weld directly on painted
surfaces.
ATTENTION!
When welding, grinding and torch cutting in the vicinity of
spray painted surfaces, rubber or plastic parts extreme
care should be exercised. The heating of paints and poly-
meric materials may generate health affecting and environ-
mentally hazardous substances.
ATTENTION!
For road travel and maintenance work the working hydrau-
lics must be blocked against unintended actuation.
