Fire prevention
NOTE!
Using the machine in environments with high risk of
fire or explosion requires special training and
equipment.
There is always a risk of fire. Find out what kind of
fire extinguisher is used on your working site and
how to use it. If the machine is equipped with a fire
extinguisher, it should be kept inside the cab on the
left side of the operator.
If the machine is to be provided with a hand-held
fire extinguisher, it should be of the ABE type (ABC
in North America). The designation ABE means that
it is possible to extinguish fires in both solid organic
material and liquids, and that the fire extinguishing
compound does not conduct electricity. Efficiency
class I means that the effective operating time of the
extinguisher must not be less than 8 seconds, class
II at least 11 seconds and grade III at least 15
seconds.
A hand-held fire extinguisher ABE I normally
corresponds to a powder content of 4 kg (8.8 lb)
(EN-grade 13A89BC), standard EN 3-1995, parts
1, 2, 4 and 5.
Fire prevention measures
Do not smoke or have an open flame near a
machine when filling with fuel or when the fuel
system is opened and in contact with the
surrounding air.
Diesel fuel oil is flammable and must not be used
for cleaning. Use conventional car care products
meant for cleaning or degreasing. Also bear in
mind that certain solvents can cause skin rashes,
damage to the paint finish and constitute fire
hazard.
