2.14.2
Hydraulic system
•
The hydraulic system is under a high pressure.
•
Replace the hydraulic hose line if it is damaged or worn. Only
use original AMAZONE hydraulic hose lines.
•
The hydraulic hose lines should not be used for longer than six
years, including any storage time of maximum two years. Even
with proper storage and approved use, hoses and hose connec-
tions are subject to natural ageing, thus limiting the length of
use. However, it may be possible to specify the length of use
from experience values, in particular when taking the risk poten-
tial into account. In the case of hoses and hose connections
made from thermoplastics, other guide values may be decisive.
•
Never attempt to plug leaks in hydraulic hose lines using your
hand or fingers.
Escaping high pressure fluid (hydraulic fluid) may pass through
the skin and ingress into the body, causing serious injuries!
If you are injured by hydraulic fluid, contact a doctor immediately.
Danger of infection.
•
When searching for leakage points, use suitable aids, to avoid
the serious risk of infection.
2.14.3
Electrical system
•
When working on the electrical system, always disconnect the
battery (negative terminal).
•
Only use the prescribed fuses. If fuses are used that are too
highly rated, the electrical system will be destroyed – risk of fire.
•
Ensure that the battery is connected correctly - firstly connect the
positive terminal and then connect the negative terminal. When
disconnecting the battery, disconnect the negative terminal first,
followed by the positive terminal.
•
Always place the appropriate cover over the positive battery
terminal. If there is accidental earth contact, there is a risk of ex-
plosion.
•
Risk of explosion. Avoid sparking and naked flames in the area
of the battery.
•
The machine can be equipped with electronic components, the
function of which may be influenced by electromagnetic interfer-
ence from other units. Such interference can pose risks to peo-
ple, if the following safety information is not followed.
ο
If retrofitting electrical units and/or components on the ma-
chine with a connection to the on-board power supply, the
user is responsible for checking whether the installation
might cause faults on the vehicle electronics or other com-
ponents.
ο
Ensure that the retrofitted electrical and electronic compo-
nents comply with the EMC directive 2014/30/EEC in the
appropriate version and carry the CE mark.
