2 Safety
2.4 Operation
Preparatory measures
• Operation is only allowed with correctly installed and intact protective
structures.
• Keep the machine clean. This reduces injury, accident and fire
hazards.
• Safely store objects you carry with you in the places provided for this
(for example in the storage compartment, drinks holder).
• Do not carry objects with you that protrude into the operator’s work
space. They can create another danger in case of an accident.
• Observe all safety, warning and information labels.
• Start and operate the machine only with the seat belt fastened and only
from the place provided for this.
• Check the condition and the fastening of the seat belt. Have malfunc-
tioning seat belts and mounting hardware replaced by an authorized
service center.
• Before starting work, adjust the seating position so that all control
elements can be reached and fully operated.
• Perform the personal adjustment at machine standstill only (for
example of the operator seat, steering column).
• Ensure that all safety devices are properly installed and functional
before starting work.
• Before starting work or after interrupting work, ensure that the brake,
steering, signaling and light systems are functional.
• Before putting the machine into operation, ensure that nobody is in the
danger zone.
