Important information on this Operator's Manual
This Operator's Manual contains important information on how to work safely, correctly
and economically with the machine. Therefore, it aims not only at new operators, but it also
serves as a reference for experienced ones. It helps to avoid dangerous situations and
reduce repair costs and downtimes. Furthermore, the reliability and the service life of the
machine will be increased by following the instructions in the Operator's Manual. This is
why
the Operator's Manual and the service booklet must always be kept at hand in
the machine.
Your own safety, as well as the safety of others, depends to a great extent on how the
machine is moved and operated. Therefore, carefully read and understand this Operator's
Manual before operating the machine for the first time. The Operator's Manual will help to
familiarize yourself more easily with the machine, thereby enabling you to use it more
safely and efficiently.
Before operating the machine, carefully read chapter
“Safety Instructions”
as well, in
order to be prepared for possibly hazardous situations. As a rule, keep the following in
mind:
Careful and prudent working is the best way to avoid accidents!
Operational safety and readiness of the machine do not only depend on your skill, but also
on maintenance and servicing of the machine. This is why regular maintenance and ser-
vice work is absolutely necessary (see service booklet). Always have a technician with
appropriate training or an authorized service center perform the maintenance and repair
work which are not included in this Operator's Manual. Insist on using original spare parts
when performing maintenance and repair work. This ensures operational safety and readi-
ness of your machine, and maintains its value.
Your Wacker Neuson dealer will be pleased to answer any further questions regarding the
machine or the Operator's Manual.
