1. Introduction
This Service Manual splits into separate chapters, it includes technical data and assembly data, adjusting
guidelines, and instructions to use special tools, jigs and aids.
The major purpose of this Workshop Manual is to provide basic information on disassembly, assembly and
service repairs of the Machine’s main groups.
Machine group identication in this Manual corresponds to the Spare Parts Catalogue.
Before the assembly, itself, we recommend to always mark the parts disassembled, and this due their reas-
sembly, and to blind all the holes of individual parts of the hydraulic system so to prevent any contamination
of the hydraulic circuits.
When you install individual parts into the Machine, please tighten individual bolts or nuts as per the torque
tables (Annex) unless otherwise stated in the text.
ALWAYS observe safety instructions and precautions mentioned in Chapter 2.

2. Safety precautions
Generalities
Read the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual carefully before starting, operating, maintaining, fuelling or servicing the machine.
Carefully read the explanation to each and all safety signs in the
special section of this Manual before starting, operating, maintaining, fuelling or servicing the machine.
Machine-mounted safety plates are colour coded yellow with
black borders when they refer to points where special
TION must be paid and failure to observe them may cause a serious DANGER to the integrity of machine operators. They are
white with red borders and black lettering when they refer to a
FORBIDDEN practice.
It is fundamental that all machine operators know very well the
meaning of each safety plate as this considerably decreases operating hazards and accidents.
Do not allow unauthorised personnel to operate or service this
machine.
Do not wear rings, wrist watches, jewellery, loose or hanging
garments, such as ties, torn clothing, scarves, unbuttoned or
unzipped jackets that can get caught in moving parts. Wear certied safety clothes such as: hard hat, no-slip footwear, heavy
gloves, ear protection, safety glasses , reector vests, respirators
every time the job requires it. Ask your employer about safety
regulations in force and protective equipment. Always keep the
operator’s compartment, step plates, grab-rails and handles
clean and clear of foreign objects, oil, grease, mud or snow to
minimise the danger of slipping or stumbling. Remove mud or
grease from your shoes before operating the machine.
Do not jump on or o the machine. Always keep both hands and
one foot, or both feet and one hand in contact with steps and/
or grab rails.
Do not use controls or hoses as hand holds. Hoses and controls
are movable parts and do not provide solid support. Besides,
controls may be inadvertently moved and cause unexpected
movement of the machine or its attachments.
Never operate the machine or its attachments from any position
other than sitting in the driver’s seat. Keep head, body, limbs,
hands and feet inside the operator’s compartment at all times
to reduce exposure to external hazards.
Be careful of possible slippery conditions of the steps and hand
rails as well as of the ground around the machine. Wear protective boots or shoes with the soles made of highly no-slip rubber.
Do not leave the machine until it has come to a complete stop.
Always check height, width and weight limitations which may
be encountered in the working site and ensure the machine
does not exceed them.
Assess exact paths of gas ducts, water mains, telephone lines,
sewers, overhead and underground electric lines and all other
possible obstacles.
Such paths should be opportunely dened by
competent Authorities. If necessary, require that the service is
interrupted or said installations are moved prior to starting the
work.
You must know the working capacity of the machine. Dene the
rear upperstructure swing area and provide for opportune barriers to prevent access into it.
ATTEN-
Starting
Never start or operate a failed machine. Walk all around the
machine before mounting.
Before operating the machine, make sure that any possible dangerous condition has been properly removed. Before starting
machine, check that steering and attachment controls are in
the neutral position and the safety lever is in the LOCK position.
Immediately report any malfunction of parts or systems to the
maintenance managers for proper action.
Prior to starting the engine, check, adjust and lock the driver’s
seat for maximum riding comfort and control accessibility. Prior
to operating the machine and/or its attachments, check that bystanders are outside the machine operating range. Sound the
horn.
Obey all hand signals, safety indications and signs. Due to the
presence of ammable uids, never check fuel level, refuel,
charge the batteries or use the starting uid in the presence of
smoking materials, open ames or sparks.
Ensure that nobody is within operating area before starting the
machine or moving in any direction.
Adjust all rear-view mirrors for maximum visibility of the area
behind the machine.
Ensure that engine speed is appropriate to the job to be carried
out.
If any hydraulic control or system exhibits erratic performance
or responds abnormally, have the machine checked for air in the
system.
Air in these circuits may cause incorrect movements with consequent accident hazard. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance
Instruction Manual about corrective action to be taken.
Operating
Do not run the engine of this machine in closed buildings without proper ventilation capable to remove harmful exhaust gases
which concentrate in the air. Keep the operator’s compartment
free of foreign objects, especially if not rmly secured. Never use
the machine to transport objects, unless proper securing points
are provided.
Do not carry riders on the machine.
Study and familiarise with escape routes alternative to normal
exit routes.
For your personal safety, do not climb on or o the machine
while it is in motion.
Make sure that bystanders are clear of the machine operating
range before starting the engine and operating the attachment.
Sound the horn.
Obey all hand signals, safety indications and signs. When backing, always look to where the machine is to be moved. Be alert
of the position of bystanders. Should someone enter the work
area, stop the machine.
Maintain a safe distance from other machines or obstacles to
ensure required visibility conditions. Always give way to loaded
machines.
Maintain a clear vision of the surroundings of the travel or work
area at all times.
Keep cab windows clean and repaired.
When pulling loads or towing through a cable or chain, do not
start suddenly at full throttle. Take-up slack carefully.
11ASC 70 / 90 / 100 / 110 / 130 / 150 / 200 / 250
WORKSHOP MANUAL
Avoid kinking or twisting chains or cables.
Carefully inspect cables or chains for aws or problems before
proceeding.
Do not pull through a kinked chain or cable as the high anomalous stresses existing in this condition may induce failures in the
kinked portion.
Always wear heavy gloves when handling chains or cables.
Chains and cables should be securely anchored using suitable
hooks. Anchor points should be strong enough to withstand the
expected load.
Keep anyone clear of anchor points and cables or chains.
Do not pull or tow unless the operator’s compartments of
the machines involved are properly protected against possible backlash in case of cable or chain failure or detachment.
Be alert of soft ground conditions close to newly constructed
walls. The ll material and machine weight may cause the wall
to collapse under the machine.
In darkness, check area of operation carefully before moving in
with the machine. Use all lights provided. Do not move into low
visibility areas.
If the engine tends to slow down and stall for whatever reason
under load or at idle, immediately report this problem to the
maintenance managers for proper action. Do not operate the
machine until this condition is corrected.
Regularly check all exhaust system components, as exhaust
fumes are toxic for the operator.
Operators must know the performance of the machine they are
driving.
When working on slopes or near sudden level drops in the terrain, pay attention not to lose adherence and avoid loose soft
ground since overturn or loss of machine control could result.
If noise level is high and exceeds 90 dB(A) over 8 hours at the
operator’s ear, wear approved ear protection in compliance with
local regulations.
Do not operate the machine if you are extremely tired or feel ill.
Be especially careful towards the end of the working shift.
Where removable counterweights are provided, do not operate
the machine if they have been removed.
When operating the machine, keep in mind height limits of overhead doors, arches, overhead cables and lines as well as width
limits of corridors, roads and narrow passages. Also, get to know
load limits of the ground and paving type of the ramps you are
to work on. Beware of fog, smoke or dust that obscure visibility.
Always inspect the working area to identify potential risks such
as: inclines, overhangs, trees, demolition rubble, res, ravines,
steep slopes, rough terrain, ditches, crowns, ridge trenches,
diggings in trac areas, crowded parking lots, crowded service
areas, fenced zones. In such conditions, proceed with extreme
care.
Whenever possible, avoid crossing over obstacles such as very
rough terrain, rocks, logs, steps, ditches, railroad tracks. When
obstructions must be crossed, do so with extreme care and at a
square angle, if possible. Slow down. Ease up to the break-over
point, pass the balance point slowly and ease down the other
side also using the attachment, if necessary.
To overcome deep trenches or sinking ground, place the machine perpendicular to the obstacle, drastically reduce ground
speed and start crossing using also the attachment if necessary,
only after assessing that ground conditions allow the traverse
safely and without risks.
The gradient you may attempt to overcome is limited by factors
such as ground conditions, load being handled, machine type
and speed, and visibility.
There is no substitute for good judgement and experience when
working on slopes.
Avoid operating the attachment too close to an overhang or
high wall, either above or below the machine. Beware of caving edges, falling objects and landslides. Remember that such
hazards are likely to be concealed by bushes, undergrowth and
such.
Avoid faggots, bushes, logs and rocks. Never drive over them,
nor over any other surface irregularities that discontinue adherence or traction with the ground, especially near slopes or dropos.
Be alert to avoid changes in adherence conditions that could
cause loss of control.
Work with extreme care on ice or frozen ground and on
stepped slopes or near drop-os.
Never use the machine as a work platform or scaolding. The
machine must not be improperly used for works not consistent
with its features (such as pushing railway cars, trucks or other
machines). Always pay attention to people within the machine
operating range.
Ground speed should be adequate to ground condi¬tions.
- Nobody should be allowed to stand within the machine operating range for any reason whatever. Never exceed specied
loading capacity. Incorrect fastening of slings or chains may
cause boom/arm failure or failure of the lifting means with consequent bodily injuries and even death.
Always ensure that slings and chains used for lifting are adequate to the load and in good condition.
All features capacities are referred to the machine on a
level surface and should be disregarded when working on
a slope.
Avoid travelling across slopes. Proceed from uphill downhill and
vice-versa.
Working on slopes is dangerous. Grade the working area if possible. Reduce work cycle time if it is not possible to grade the
working area.
We recommend to work on slopes after checking machine stability.
Properly judge ground conditions with particular attention to
consistency of the area you are going to work on.
Keep the machine suciently far from the ditch edge. Do not
swing the upperstructure, raise the load or brake abruptly if not
required. This may cause accidents.
Prior to beginning the work near gas distribution mains or other
public utilities:
- Contact the company owner of the gas mains or its nearest
branch before starting the work. Look up the number in the telephone directory.
- Dene together which precautions should be taken to guarantee work safety.
- Decrease work speed. Reaction time could be too slow and distance evaluation wrong.
- When working near gas mains or other public utilities installations, appoint a person in charge of signalling duties. This
person will have the responsibility of observing the machine,
any part of it and/or the load approaching the gas mains from
a standpoint more favourable than the Operator’s. This signal

2. Safety precautions
man (agman) must be in direct communication with the Operator and the Operator must pay undivided attention to the
signals supplied.
- The gas distributing Company, if previously advised and involved in the work, as well as machine Operator, Owner and/
or any natural person or legal entity having rent or leased the
machine or being responsible at the time by contract or by law,
are liable for the adoption of the necessary precautions.
Working near electric lines can be very dangerous, therefore
some special precautions must be observed. Within this Manual,
„work near electric lines“ means when the attachment (in any
position) may reach the minimum safety distance established
by local or international Safety Regulations.
To work without risks, keep maximum possible distance from
electric lines and never trespass minimum safety distance. Ensure that local or national safety regulations concerning work
near electric lines are observed.
Prior to beginning the work near electric lines:
- Contact the Company owner of the electric lines or its nearest
branch before starting the work.
Look up the in the telephone directory.
- Dene together with the Company representative which precautions should be taken to guarantee work safety.
- All electric lines should be considered as operative live lines
even though it might be well known that the line in question is
out of work and visibly connected to the ground.
- The Electric Power Company, if previously advised and involved
in the work, as well as machine Operator, Owner and/or any natural person or legal entity having rent or leased the machine or
being responsible at the time by contract or by law, are liable for
the adoption of the necessary precautions.
- Decrease work speed. Reaction time could be too slow and distance evaluation wrong.
- Warn all ground personnel to keep clear of the machine at all
times.
- Appoint a person in charge of signalling duties.
This person will have the responsibility of observing II the machine approaching the electric lines from a I standpoint more
favourable than the Operator’s. This signal man (ag-man) must
be in direct communication with the Operator and the Operator
must pay undivided attention to the signals supplied.
When working in or near pits, in ditches or very high walls, check
that the walls are suciently propped up to avoid cave-in hazards.
Pay the utmost attention when working near overhang walls
or where landslides may take place. Make sure that the support
surface is strong enough to prevent landslides.
Always check ground conditions and conditions of the material
to be removed. Support everywhere it is required to prevent
possible cave-ins or landslides:
- near previous trenches lled with material, - in bad ground
conditions,
- when working trenches subject to vibration from railroads,
working machines or highway trac.

this cannot be avoided for service reasons, place protection
meshes on all intakes before servicing the engine.
Hydraulic system
Pressure uid escaping from a very small hole can be almost invisible and still have sucient force to penetrate the skin. Always
check any suspected pressure leaks using a piece of cardboard
or wood. Do not use hands. If injured by escaping uid, obtain
medical attention immediately or serious infection or reaction
may develop.
Stop the engine and ensure pressure is relieved from all systems
before removing side panels, housings, guards and covers. See
the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual.
Always use gauges of adequate capacity for pressure testing.
Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual or
Repair Manual.
Tools
Always keep head, body, limbs, feet, hands, and ngers away
from the bucket and attachments, when in the raised position.
Prior to any maintenance or repair work, install all supports necessary to this aim according to local and national safety regulations.
In case the attachment is to be operated for maintenance or repair purposes, do so exclusively while sitting in the driver’s seat.
Sound the horn before starting the machine or moving the attachment. Require that nobody remain near the machine. Raise
the attachment slowly.
Do not use the machine to transport loose objects, unless proper securing devices are provided.
Electrical system
Pay attention to connect connecting cables to correct poles (+
to +) and (- to -) at both ends. Do not short-circuit
terminals. Thoroughly follow instructions given in Operation
and Maintenance Instruction Manual.
Always move the key-start switch in the lock position before
servicing or repairing the machine.
Batteries contain SULPHURIC ACID. Protect the eyes when working near the batteries against possible sprays of the acid solution. Should acid contact skin, eyes, or clothes, RINSE IMMEDIATELY IN WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. Immediately seek
medical attention.
Battery released gas is highly ammable. Leave the battery
compartment cover open during recharging to improve ventilation. Never check battery charge by placing metal objects across
the posts. Keep sparks or open ames away from batteries. Do
not smoke near the battery to prevent explosion hazard.
Before any maintenance or repair, make sure that there are no
fuel or electrolyte leaks from the batteries. If any, correct prior
to proceeding with further work. Do not recharge batteries in
conned spaces. Ensure proper ventilation is provided to avoid
accidental explosions due to build-up of explosive gas released
during charging.
Disconnect batteries before working on the electrical system or
carrying out any other type of work.
Tyres and wheels
Make sure that the ination pressure of the tyres is according
to the specications issued by the Manufacturer and check it
periodically.
Should the pressure be changed, stand on the side of the tyre
at a safe distance.
Pressure check operations must be performed with unloaded
machine and cold tyres.
Never use reconditioned tyre rims, since eventual weldings,
heat-treatments or repairs not performed correctly can weaken
the wheel, thus causing subsequent damages or dangers.
Do not perform torch cutting or welding operations on rims
with tyres installed.
Spare tyres must be inated only as far it is necessary to keep the
rim components assembled; remember that when not installed
on the disc, a tyre inated to maximum pressure can explode.
Before operating on tyres, block all wheels, front and rear. After
lifting the machine with the cylinders, block it with stands according to current safety rules and regulations.
Deate the tyres before removing them.
Before removing objects from the tyre tread, deate it.
Do not inate tyres with ammable gas: they may cause explosions and serious personal injuries.
After each shift check for loose screws and/or rim mounting
brackets. If necessary, tight them according to the instructions
herein contained.
