WARNING
Entanglement and severing hazard - Never go near a running attachment.
The
powerful rotating shaft can cause serious injuries to anyone too close to it. Always stop
the attachment following the safe stopping procedure before going near the attachment. If
being near a running attachment is absolutely necessary to determine the condition of the
attachment watching from a distance, or fault finding operation, never wear loose
clothing, long scarves, jewellery, or other items that might become entangled with rotating
parts. If needed, also wear a hat to prevent long hair from coming into contact with the
rotating parts. Before maintenance and service stop the attachment following the safe
stopping procedure.
WARNING
Beware of entanglement and crushing hazards especially
when removing blockages.
If a blockage is cleared without
first turning off the auxiliary hydraulics of the loader, the
rotating shaft will start immediately and potentially cause
severe injuries. Always stop the attachment by turning the
auxiliary hydraulics control lever to its neutral position before
leaving the driver’s seat, shut down the loader engine and
release the residual pressure of the hydraulic system.
WARNING
Risk of serious personal injuries - Improper or careless use of the attachment may
cause hazardous situations.
Use the attachment only for its intended use. Familiarise
yourself with the loader controls in a safe area. Pay particular attention to the safe
stopping of the attachment and the loader.

Personal protective equipment
Remember to wear proper personal protective equipment:
The noise level at the driver's seat may exceed 85 dB(A) depending on loader
model and operating cycle. Extended exposure to loud noise can cause
hearing impairment. Wear hearing protection while working with the loader.
Wear protective gloves.
Wear safety boots whenever working with the loader.
Wear safety glasses e.g. when handling hydraulic components.
At some operating areas using the attachment may cause spreading of dust.
Protect yourself from dust with a respirator mask.
