Start-up procedure
Do not disperse any sprays or other agents into the air intake
while the machine is starting up. They may lead to overheating
in the combustion chamber and result in damage to the engine.
There is danger of suffocation if the operator starts up the
machine in closed rooms or in deep and tight trenches.
Operating the machine in closed rooms is prohibited. Provide
for an adequate supply of air before starting the machine.
A red LED at the protective cage indicates a low oil level.
There is a risk of engine damage. Abort the start-up procedure
if the LED comes on during start-up.
During operation
There is a crushing hazard under the tamping foot during
operation.
The personal protective equipment will protect the toes,
but not the entire foot. Do not step under the tamping foot.
Monitor the surroundings to avoid injury to third parties
or material damage.
Suspend operation and shut down the machine if detecting
damage on the machine during operation.
Parking the machine
Always park the machine on a level subsurface with sufficient
bearing capacity.
Parked machines presenting an obstacle must be secured
in accordance with statutory regulations, particularly in
the area of public traffic surfaces.
Engine and exhaust heat up during operation and can cause
burns on contact. Therefore, do not touch these components
during operation or shortly after the engine was switched off.
Fueling the machine
Spilled fuel may ignite and has a negative impact on the
environment. Therefore, wipe up spilled fuel and make sure
the gas cap is firmly tightened after fueling.
Fuel vapors are easily flammable. Do not smoke and
keep away from open fire while refueling the machine.
The machine must not be fueled unless the engine is
switched off.
When coming into contact with fuels, the rubber-bonded metal
buffers of the machine may become damaged or ineffective.
Therefore, wipe spilled fuel carefully off the rubber-bonded
metal buffers.
