Safety Instructions
Welding Repair
. If a repair or modification requires the welding of certain parts, you must first contact your dealer for necessary
instructions. Improper welding or negligence during welding can cause sudden machine breakdowns.
Working in Extreme Conditions
. The recommended ambient temperature for the operation of this machine is between -20 °C and + 30 °C.
Low or high temperatures result in increased wear and stress on joints and hoses. In addition, steel wears
faster, and cracks can occur.
. When working in extreme conditions, reduce loads to prevent damage. In case of low temperature let the
hydraulic oil circulate freely during several minutes. Then operate each function several times to soften the
joints and hoses before applying full pressure. When it is extremely hot, pay attention to the oil temperature. A
temperature above 80 °C alters the properties of the oil and damages joints and hoses.
Maintenance and Servicing Safety Instructions
. Regular maintenance and service ensure optimal and cost effective operation.
. Note: Failure to follow the instructions in this manual will void all warranties related to this machine. Regular
and proper maintenance are a prerequisite for warranty coverage.
. Read the instructions before servicing the machine. Each maintenance task requires reading and following
instructions. Maintenance and lubrication should be done at the recommended intervals.
. Always use tools suitable for the maintenance / servicing tasks involved. Wear protective clothing and glasses.
. Shut off the tractor engine and remove the ignition key. If the engine has to run during certain maintenance
operations, please stay away from any moving parts of the machine.
. Be extremely careful with pressurized oil. Oil under high pressure easily penetrates the skin. In case of
accident, consult a doctor immediately.
