Operation outside this temperature range requires the express
authorization of the manufacturer. Use under extreme climatic conditions
places special demands on equipment and fuel.
WARNING
Explosion!
Severe injury and death due to burns and moving parts.
■
Do not use aerosol start-up aid (e.g. ether).
■
Do not use any liquids as start-up aid (e.g. alcohol).
■
Adapt operating materials, such as oils and coolant, to the ambient
temperature.
■
Observe the instruction manuals for the battery and diesel engine.
Low ambient temperature
The diesel engine's starting behaviour and the machine's operation
depend on:
■
The fuel used.
■
The viscosity of the motor, gear and hydraulic oil.
■
The battery's charge state.
Please note:
The acceleration and braking behaviour of the machine are influenced
by viscous hydraulic oil. Before starting operation at a low ambient
temperature, adapt the operating materials (coolant, oils etc.) to the low
temperatures.
Please use fuels suitable in winter with temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F)
( page 167 sqq.). Do not charge batteries with temperatures below
0 °C (32 °F).
Extensive ambient temperature, extensive height
At high ambient temperature and/or use of the machine at high altitudes:
■
Do not completely fill the fuel and operating liquid tanks/reservoirs.
■
Adjust the control system to reduce the amount of fuel injected quality
