SAFETY

11.3 Remaining risk factors

Even if the machine is used as required it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual risk factors
totally. The following hazards may arise in connection with the machine´s construction and design:
 Risk of noise:
Working for a long time can damage your hearing if you do not use a very good hearing protection.
 Risks of working area:
Keep attention for stones and other things that can be thrown around by the machine.
 Risk to the hands or fingers:
Risk of crushing: Operate the machine firmly with both hands. When tilting the dump box keep
extreme caution.
Risk of burns: Access while it is working in the mowing apparatus. After the operation, the machine
must cool down. Otherwise, there is an acute risk of scalding!
 Risk of fire and explosion:
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
NEVER refuel fuel or engine oil while the machine is in operation or is hot.
When refueling and at places where fuel is stored not smoke or allow open flames or sparks.
Do not overfill the fuel tank and avoid the spillage of gasoline during refueling. If fuel is spilled make
sure the area is completely dry and cleaned before starting the engine.
Make sure that the filler cap is tightly closed again after refueling safely.
 Chemical risks:
Never use or refuel a gasoline or diesel engine in a closed area without adequate ventilation.
Carbon monoxide emissions from the internal drive units of the engine can cause in confined spaces
through inhalation health effects and death. Therefore use the machine only in well-ventilated rooms
or outdoors in operation.
Liquid fuels can cause serious damage on the skin and the environment.
 Vibration:
The declared vibration emission value has been for a standardized test is measured and can be used
to compare one tool with another electric are.
The declared vibration emission value may also be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning:
Emission level of vibration can be different from the specified value during the actual use of the
machine, depending on the manner in which the machine is used. When you feel uncomfortable or
notice discoloration of skin on your hands during the use of the machine, stop working immediately.
Observe sufficient break times to rest. Failure to have sufficient break times may result in a hand-arm
vibration syndrome.
The extent of exposure depending on the type of work or machine use should be estimated and
appropriate breaks taken. In this way, the extent of exposure can be considerably reduced over the
entire work time. Minimize the risk caused by vibrations. Maintain this machine according to the
instructions in the manual.
These risk factors can be minimized through obeying all security and operation instructions, proper
machine maintenance, proficient and appropriate operation by persons with technical knowledge and
experience.
