Always approach gradients from below when operating the machine on sloped surfaces. The machine could slip or tip over.

Do not exceed max. allowable slanting position of the machine – possible failure of the engine lubrication, see chapter Technical Data.

3.7.3Minimum safety distances

Compaction work near buildings can cause damage to buildings. Therefore, all potential effects and vibrations on surrounding buildings must be checked in advance.

The relevant rules and regulations for measuring, evaluating and reducing vibration emissions - especially the DIN 4150-3 - must be considered.

Wacker Neuson assumes no liability for any damage to buildings.

Make sure that the exhaust system of the engine is free of debris. Fire hazard!

Switch off the engine and allow to cool before refueling.

Use the correct fuel type. The fuel may not be mixed with other liquids.

Use clean filling aids for refueling. Do not spill fuel. Immediately wipe up any spilled fuel.

The engine may not be started near spilled fuel. Explosion hazard!

For operation in partially closed spaces, sufficient ventilation and aeration must be ensured. Do not inhale exhaust fumes. Risk of poisoning!

The engine surface and exhaust system can quickly become extremely hot. Risk of burns!

NOTE

This machine is outfitted with an EPA-certified engine.

Changing the revolutions per minute (RPM) impacts the EPA-certification and the emissions. Settings for this engine may only be changed by a professional.

For more information, contact the manufacturer or your Wacker Neuson contact partner.
