Protective structures
Protective structures are additional elements that protect the operator or
user against hazards. These elements can be installed later on or as
standard equipment.
DANGER
Accident hazard due to modified cabin or protective structures!
Modifications (for example drilling) weaken the structure and can cause
serious injury or death.
► No drilling, cutting or grinding.
► Do not install any brackets.
► No welding, straightening or bending.
► Replace the complete protective structure if it is damaged, deformed or
cracked.
► Contact a Wacker Neuson service center in case of doubt.
► Retrofit and repair work may only be performed by a Wacker Neuson
service center.
► Replace self-locking fasteners.
Information
Machine operation is only allowed with a correctly attached and intact
cabin.
For additional protection, only use correctly installed and intact Wacker
Neuson protective structures that have been released for the machine.
Information
Only install protective structures with the help of a crane.
Responsibility for machine equipped with protective structures
The decision regarding the necessary protective structures (type and level
I or II) must be made by the machine owner and depends on the specific
work situation.
The machine owner must observe the national regulations and he must
inform the operator on the protective structure to be used in a specific
work situation.
