After safety testing, this vehicle has received operating approval in conformity with 2003/37EC.
The vehicle further conforms to the relevant safety
and health requirements of EC Directive 2006/42/
EC, which are currently not covered by Directive
2003/37/EC. The vehicle satisfies the requirements
of the EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) Directive 2009/64/EC. The regulations for exhaust gas
identification and noise emission are observed. The
vehicle must be licensed and furnished with a license plate at the front and rear.
Intended use
The vehicle is suitable for towing trailers and for
use with various attachments. The maximum trailer load that may be towed is specified on the
type plate and must not be exceeded. Transporting
people is only permissible if a passenger seat is
present. The vehicle is provided exclusively for use
in agriculture and forestry, care of green spaces
and outdoor facilities, and for winter services.
The vehicle may only be employed for the intended use as specified and described in this operating
manual. Intended use also implies compliance with
the required maintenance and repair specifications.
The vehicle and the attachments may only be used,
maintained and repaired by persons who are familiar with them and have been informed of the associated dangers. The relevant accident prevention
regulations as well as any other applicable rules
and regulations concerning work safety, health protection and traffic safety must be observed.

is prohibited. Transportation of people on the load
area or on attachments is not permitted.
Residual dangers, residual risks
Despite careful working and observance or standards and regulations, the occurrence of dangers
in handling the vehicle cannot be ruled out. Both
the vehicle and all other system components comply with the currently applicable safety regulations.
Nevertheless a residual risk cannot be ruled out,

Safety rules C250 ... C370
Emissions
Exhaust gas
DANGER
Danger of poisoning
•
Do not run the engine in enclosed
spaces
The engine emits exhaust gas to the
environment when running The exhaust gas consists primarily of water
vapour, carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon
monoxide, hydrocarbons (CH), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and soot. The components CO, CH and NOx are toxic
and harmful to health and must not
be inhaled in high concentrations. Soot
is considered a carcinogenic material.
The particulates contained in exhaust
gas are especially carcinogenic.
Battery
Heat
DANGER
Risk of explosion
•
Ventilate sufficiently
•
Keep away from open flames
•
Observe safety rules for handling
the battery
The battery emits a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen (oxyhydrogen gas)
while being charged. This gas mixture
is an explosion risk and must not be
ignited.
DANGER
Danger of fire
•
Keep inflammable materials away
from the exhaust system
The exhaust gases are very hot and
can ignite combustible material

Safety rules C250 ... C370
Working in the vicinity of overhead power lines
DANGER
Danger from high voltage
•
Maintain an adequate safety margin between overhead power lines
and the vehicle (see table)
The safety margin depends on the rated voltage of
the overhead power line:
Voltage Safety margin
> 1 kV 1 m
< 1 kV > 110 kV 3 m
< 110 kV > 220 kV 4 m
< 220 kV > 1380 kV 5 m
Unknown voltage 5 m
Cab
The cab conforms to the requirements of the cab
classification (standard: EN 15695-1:2009). There
are four categories for cabs that surround the driver with a physical barrier and prevent ambient
air from entering the driver's environment unhindered.
Category I
Cab that provides no defined protection level
against hazardous substances
Category II
Cab that protects against dust
Category III
Cab that protects against dust and aerosols
Category IV
Cab that protects against dust, aerosols and
vapours
The cabs of the C250, C270, C350, C370 vehicles
correspond to Category II

Safety rules C250 ... C370
DANGER
Danger of poisoning
•
Do not use vehicle if protection
from aerosols and vapours is required
DANGER
Danger of poisoning
When working with hazardous substances, e.g. spayed agents, spray
mists, etc.,
•
keep windows, doors and ventilators closed
•
Observe instructions of the equipment and chemical manufacturers,
as well as their recommendations
on filters to be used
•
Do not enter the cab with contaminated clothing
•
In case of contamination, enter
the cab only with protective clothing
•
Do not store or transport any hazardous substances in the cab

ADVICE
Without axle suspension the vehicle height is 15 mm less than the value in the table.
Determination of the maximum height of your vehicle (figures on the previous pages)
1. Select your equipment variant in the first two rows (cab, roof)
2. Select the tyre size in the (Tyres) column
3. Read out the height data in the relevant column.
4. You can read out the vehicle width in the two first columns (Narrow, Wide).

Checking tyre pressure
ADVICE
Your vehicle can be equipped with various tyre sizes For the proper pressure and load capacity for your tyres,
see the Technical Data section under
"Tyres".
1. Check the tyre pressure (1) on all four tyres
All tyres must have the same pressure.
2. Maintain the specified air pressure for fast
travel on roads.
3. Do not exceed the load capacity of the tyres.
•
The rolling resistance is increased by insufficient pressure. This increases the fuel consumption and tyre wear increases; driving behaviour is worsened
•
Excessively high-pressure impairs driving behaviour. Tyre wear increases and reduces driving comfort
DANGER
Danger of explosion, danger of ac-
cident
•
Avoid excessively high air pressure
in the tyres.
•
Do not use damaged or worn tyres
•
Immediately replace damaged
tyres
•
Only install 4 wheels of the same
type

Service brakes
CAUTION
Danger of accident
The vehicle is sharply braked when the
brake pedal is pressed.
1. Press brake pedal at slow speed. Vehicle must
brake sharply.
Checking braking and steering function
1. Check the proper functioning of the steering
and braking in a short test drive.
DANGER
Danger of accident
•
Do not put a vehicle with a defective steering or braking system into operation.
•
Immediately shut down the vehicle if there are irregularities in the
brake system.
•
Have the vehicle checked by a
specialist workshop
driving.
4. There must be a noticeable resistance when
starting to move and a signal tone must
sound.
2. Set parking brake.
3. Set vehicle to range 1 or 2 and slowly start

Operation
Before driving
Observe the regulations of the traffic laws when
driving on public roadways.
WARNING
Danger of accident
•
Only drive the vehicle from the
drivers seat with cab doors closed
•
Do not transport people in the
vehicle without suitable seating
equipment
•
Always adapt driving speed to
road conditions and the loading
situation of the vehicle
•
Before starting, check whether
there are persons in the vicinity
•
Drive slowly with heavy implements, trailers and ballast, and
take the increased braking distance into account
•
When driving in curves with trailing or mounted equipment, take
the wide overhang and the inertial
effect into account
•
Before driving, cover parts that
may be hazardous to traffic or
identify them with warning symbols.
•
Disengage the differential lock
when driving in curves
•
Turn uphill on slopes
•
Improve traction in steep terrain
by engaging the differential lock
•
Observe the instructions "Driving
on slopes"
Translation of Original Operating Manual 156319-04 97
Page 98
Operation C250 ... C370
Driving on slopes
DANGER
Danger of accident
•
Driving on a slope is dangerous
because the vehicle can tip over if
the centre of gravity exceeds the
tipping limit
•
Use the vehicle only if slipping,
crashing or falling over is out of
the question
The following factors reduce the risk:
– proper loading
– low centre of gravity
– low driving speed
– no climbing
– proper tyre pressure depending on the load
– large track width
ADVICE
The driving comfort and traction of the
vehicle can be increased by reducing
the tyre pressure.
We recommend the type of driving described in the
figure for turning on a slope.

Instructions for driving
ADVICE
After the engine has started, the direction switch must be actuated once
if it was in the forward or reverse position during start-up. This prevents
inadvertent movement while starting
the engine.
You can also switch to the new direction of travel
when driving at reduced speed.
CAUTION
Danger of accident
The vehicle brakes sharply in that case
and again accelerates in the opposite
direction of travel.
CAUTION
Danger of accident
If the inch pedal is pressed completely
down, the vehicle brakes very sharply.
