WARNING
Diesel motor: Chemical burns due to battery acid!
The batteries are filled with an acidic solution. Contact with the acidic solution leads
to chemical burns! Always close batteries properly. When working on the battery,
wear acid-resistant protective gloves!
WARNING
Diesel motor: Environmental damage due to leaking operating fluids!
Systems with diesel motors use the following operating fluids: Motor oil, diesel fuel
and battery acid. These operating fluids are harmful to the environment and must
not be released into the soil or waters. Attach a suitable protective device (collecting
tank, oil mat...) during transport.
Risk numbers:
• Diesel fuel: R 40, R 65, R 66, R 51/53
• Battery acid: R 35
CAUTION
Material damage due to incorrect attachment!
Do not attach lifting gear on the pressure-side pipework. The pipework is not de-
signed for these loads.
Ensure during attachment that the lifting gear does not impact the pipework. The
high bending stress may damage the pipework and lead to leakage!
