Introduction :
1.1 Important information on this Operator’s Manual :
This Operator’s Manual contains important information on how to work safely, correctly and economically with the machine. Therefore, it aims not only at new operators, but it also serves as a reference for experienced ones. It helps to avoid dangerous situations and reduce repair costs and downtimes. Furthermore, the reliability and the service life of the machine will be increased by following the instructions in the Operator’s Manual.
- This is why the Operator’s Manual and the service booklet must always be kept at hand in the machine. Your own safety, as well as the safety of others, depends to a great extent on how the machine is moved and operated. Therefore, carefully read and understand this Operator’s Manual prior to the first drive.
- The Operator’s Manual will help to familiarize yourself more easily with the machine, thereby enabling you to use it more safely and efficiently. Prior to the first drive, carefully read chapter “Safety Instructions” as well, in order to be prepared for possible dangerous situations, as it will be too late for it during operation. Basic rule: careful and prudent working is the best way to avoid accidents! Operational safety and readiness of the machine do not only depend on your skill, but also on maintenance and servicing of the machine.
- This is why regular maintenance and service work is absolutely necessary (see service booklet). Always have a technician with appropriate training or an authorized workshop perform the maintenance and repair work which are not included in this Operator’s Manual. Insist on using original spare parts when carrying out maintenance and repair work. This ensures operational safety and readiness of your machine, and maintains its value. Store the Operator’s Manual in the storage compartment behind the seat.
