SECTION 1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS GENERAL NOTES 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 ATTENTION must be paid and failure to observe them may cause a serious DANGER to the integrity of machine operators.

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 defined by competent Authorities. If necessary, require that the service is interrupted or said installations are moved prior to starting the work.

They are white with red borders and black lettering when they refer to a FORBIDDEN practice.

You must know the working capacity of the machine.

It is fundamental that all machine operators know very well the meaning of each safety plate as this considerably decreases operating hazards and accidents.

Define the rear superstructure swing area and provide for opportune barriers to prevent access into it.

Never exceed machine lifting capacity.

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 certified safety clothes such as: hard hat, no-slip footwear, heavy gloves, ear protection, safety glasses, reflector 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.

Remain within the limits shown in the loading capacity chart located on the machine.

START UP Never start up or set in motion a failed machine.

Before getting on, walk around the machine to inspect it. 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.

Do not jump on or off the machine. Always keep both hands and one foot, or both feet and one hand in contact with steps and/or grab rails.

Prior to starting the engine, check, adjust and lock the driver’s seat for maximum riding comfort and control accessibility.

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.

Prior to operating the machine and/or its attachments, check that bystanders are outside the machine operating range. Sound horn.

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.

Obey all hand signals, safety indications and signs.

Due to the presence of flammable fluids, never check fuel level, refuel, charge the batteries or use the starting fluid in the presence of smoking materials, open flames or sparks.

Ensure that nobody is within the excavator operating area before starting the machine, swinging the upper structure 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.

1-3

SECTION 1 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.

OPERATION 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 driver’s seat free from foreign objects, especially if these are not 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 off 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 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.

Avoid kinking or twisting chains or cables. Carefully inspect cables or chains for flaws 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.

1-4

Be alert of soft ground conditions close to newly constructed walls. The fill 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.

Check constantly the work areas to find out the dangerous points.

Some examples of dangerous work areas are: inclines, overhangs, trees, demolition rubble, fires, ravines, steep slopes, rough terrain, ditches, crowns, ridge trenches, diggings in traffic 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.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 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 drop-offs.

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-offs.

The word “bulldozing” generally refers to work in virgin rough terrain, characterised by the presence of all the perils and risks listed above. We emphasise the danger represented in these conditions by large tree limbs and large roots, which may act as a leverage under the machine when up-rooted and cause their overturn.

Position the machine according to the loading and unloading areas in order to slew leftwards to load and to obtain best visibility.

Never use the bucket or attachment to lift persons or carry riders on the machine.

Never use the machine as a work platform or scaffolding. 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.

Never move or stop the bucket, other loads or the attachment above ground personnel or truck cabs.

Before loading a truck make sure that the driver finds a safe place. Load trucks from side or rear.

Use only the type of bucket recommended considering machine type, materials to be handled, material piling up and loading characteristics, ground type and other typical conditions of the work to be performed.

Ground speed should be adequate to the load and ground conditions. The load must always be properly arranged in the bucket. Move with extreme care when transporting oversize loads.

Do not lift and move the bucket overhead where persons are standing. When working on slopes avoid travelling with bucket downhill because this could reduce the machine stability. Load the bucket from uphill side. Loads to be raised using the machine should be exclusively hooked to the hitch specially provided.

The excavator is no lifting and transportation means, therefore it should not be used to position loads accurately. Should it be exceptionally used to lift and lay building components, special caution must be taken as follows: - The machine should necessarily be equipped with the special option supplied by Dealer. Besides, follow carefully safety rules for the excavator used as lifting means.

- Secure the loads to be raised using cables or chains fastened with appropriate hooking mechanisms.

- Nobody should be allowed to remain under the raised load or within the excavator operating range for any reason whatever.

Never exceed specified 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 loading 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. If machine starts slipping sideways when on a slope, lower the bucket and thrust bucket teeth into the ground.

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.

Do not move full bucket or a load from uphill downhill as this would reduce machine stability. Do not work with the bucket turned uphill as counterweights protruding downhill would reduce machine stability on the slope and increase risk of overturning.

We recommend to work on slopes with the bucket downhill, after checking machine stability with the bucket empty and attachment retracted, by slowly swinging the upper structure by 360°.

When travelling with a loaded bucket, keep it as rolled-back as possible.

1-5

SECTION 1 Position the carriage at a right angle relative to slopes, hanging walls, etc. to exit the working area easily. Be aware when the upper structure is turned by 180°, steering and travel controls are reversed.

Prior to beginning the work near electric lines:

Properly judge ground conditions with particular attention to consistency of the area you are going to work on. Keep the machine sufficiently far from the digging border.

- Define together with the Company representative which precautions should be taken to guarantee work safety.

Never dig under the machine.

Should it be necessary to dig under the machine, always ensure that digging walls are opportunely propped up against landslide to prevent the machine from falling into the trench.

Do not slew the upper structure, 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.

- Define 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 electric line from a better standpoint with respect to the Operator’s position. This signal-man shall directly communicate with the Operator and the Operator must pay special attention to any 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 or load raised by the excavator (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.

1-6

- Contact the Company Owner of the electric lines or its nearest branch before starting the work.

Look up the in the telephone directory.

- 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 and/or load at all times. If the load has to be guided down for laying, consult the Electric Power Company to know which precautions should be taken.

- Appoint a person in charge to signal instructions.

This person will have the responsibility of observing the machine, any part of it and/or the load approaching the electric line from a better standpoint with respect to the Operator’s position. This signal-man shall directly communicate with the Operator and the Operator must pay special attention to any signals supplied.

When working in or near pits, in ditches or very high walls, check that the walls are sufficiently 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.

When digging, there is the risk of cave-ins and 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 when: - When digging near recently formed trenches filled with filling materials.

- When digging in bad ground conditions.

- When digging trenches subject to vibration from railroads, working machines or highway traffic.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS STOP When the machine is to be stopped for whatever reason, always check that all controls are in the neutral position and that the safety lever is on the lock position to guarantee risk-free start-up.

Never leave the machine unattended with the engine running.

Before leaving the driver’s seat and after ensuring no-one is near the machine, slowly lower the attachment until it rests safely onto the ground. Move possible additional tools in the safe retracted position.

Check that all controls are in the neutral position.

Move engine controls to the shut-down position.

Switch off the key-start switch. Consult the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual.

Park the machine in a non-operating and no-traffic area. Park on firm level ground. If this is not possible, position the machine at a right angle to the slope, making sure there is no danger of uncontrolled sliding.

If parking in traffic lanes cannot be avoided, provide prescribed danger signals such as: flags, barriers, flares and other signals. Moreover arrange further danger signals on traffic lane so as to adequately warn the oncoming drivers.

Always switch off the key-start switch before cleaning, repairing or servicing, or parking the machine to prevent accidental unauthorised start-up.

Never lower the attachment or auxiliary tools other than from sitting in the operator’s seat. Sound horn.

Make sure that nobody is within the machine operating range. Lower the attachment slowly.

Securely block and lock the machine every time you leave it unattended. Return keys to the safe place previously agreed upon.

Perform all necessary operations for stopping as detailed in the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual.

Drive the machine far from pits, trenches, rocky hanging walls, areas with overhead electric lines, and slopes before stopping it at the end of the working day.

Align the upper structure to the tracks in order to allow to easily get on and off the driver’s compartment.

Move all controls to the position specified for machine stopping. Refer the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual.

Never park on an incline without accurately blocking the machine to prevent unexpected movement.

Always follow stopping instructions contained in the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual.

MAINTENANCE GENERAL NOTES Carefully read the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual before starting, operating, maintaining, fuelling or servicing the machine in any manner.

Read all safety plates mounted on the machine and observe instructions they contain before starting, operating, repairing, fuelling or servicing the machine.

Do not allow unauthorised personnel to operate or service this machine.

Do not carry out any work on the attachment without prior authorisation.

Observe recommended maintenance and repair procedures.

SECTION 1 PREVENT BURNS After operation, the engine coolant is hot and is under pressure. Hot water or steam are contained in the engine, radiator and heater lines.

Skin contact with escaping hot water or steam can cause severe burns.

Stop engine and let the same cool together with radiator.

Slowly loosen the cap to release pressure after the system has cooled, then remove it.

50 Engine oil, gear oil and hydraulic oil also become hot during operation.

The engine, hoses, lines and other parts become hot as well.

Wait for the oil and components to cool before starting any maintenance or inspection work.

The hydraulic oil tank is pressurized.

Again, be sure to release all pressure before removing the cap.

51 REMOVE PAINT BEFORE WELDING OR HEATING Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust.

Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is heated by welding, soldering, or using a torch.

Do all such work outside or in a well-ventilated area.

Dispose of paint and solvent properly.

If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust.

Wear an approved respirator.

If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove stripper with soap and water before welding. Remove solvent or paint stripper containers and other flammable material from area. Allow fumes to disperse at least 15 minutes before welding or heating.

52

1-30

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AVOID HEATING NEAR PRESSURIZED LINES Flammable spray can be generated by applying heat near pressurized fluid lines, resulting in severe burns to yourself and bystanders. Do not heat by welding, soldering, or using a torch near pressurized fluid lined or other flammable materials.

Pressurized lines can be accidentally cut when heat goes beyond the immediate flame area. Install temporary fire resistant guards to protect hoses or other materials when engaging in welding, soldering, etc.

53 AVOID TO HEAT LINES CONTAINING FLAMMABLE FLUIDS Do not weld or flame cut pipes or tubes that contain flammable fluids.

Clean them thoroughly with nonflammable solvent before welding or flame cutting them.

54 BEWARE OF FLUIDS UNDER PRESSURE Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury.

Avoid this hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or other lines.

Relieve the pressure by moving the control levers several times.

Tighten all connections before applying pressure.

Wear a shield or protection glasses to protect your eyes.

Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard; take care to protect hands and body from high-pressure fluids.

55

Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene may result.

56

1-31

SECTION 1 PREVENT FIRES Check for oil leaks: Fuel, hydraulic oil and lubricant leaks can lead to fires that may result in serious injury.

Check for missing or loose clamps, kinked hoses, lines or hoses that rub against each other, damaged oil-cooler, and loose oil-cooler flange bolts, for oil leaks.

Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Pressurized fluid leaks can penetrate skin and cause serious injuries.

Do not use your bare hand to check for oil leaks.

Tighten, repair or replace any missing, loose or damaged clamps, lines, hoses, oil-cooler and oil cooler flange bolts.

Do not bend or strike high-pressure lines. Never install bent or damaged lines, pipes or hoses.

Check for short circuits: Short circuits can cause fires that may result in serious injury.

Clean and tighten all electrical connections.

Check before each shift or after eight (8) hours of operation for loose, kinked, hardened or frayed electrical cables and wires.

Check before each shift or after eight (8) hours of operation for missing or damaged terminal caps.

DO NOT OPERATE machine if cable or wires are loose, kinked, etc.

Tighten, repair or replace any loose or damaged electrical cables, wires, and terminal caps before operating the machine.

Clean flammables: Spilled fuel and oils, and accumulated coal dust and other flammables may cause fires and serious personal injury.

Prevent fires by keeping machine clean every day.

1-32

57

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Check key-start switch: If a fire breaks out, failure to stop the engine will escalate the fire, hampering fire fighting.

Always check key-start switch function before operating the machine every day: - start the engine and run it at slow idle; - turn the start switch key to OFF, to confirm the engine stops.

If any abnormalities are found, be sure to repair them before operating the machine.

Check heat shields: Damaged or missing heat shields may lead to fires.

Damaged or missing heat shields must be repaired or replaced before operating the machine.

58 HANDLE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS SAFETY Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause serious injury. Potentially hazardous chemicals used with your machine include such items as lubricants, coolants, paints, and adhesives.

A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific details on chemical products: physical and health hazards, safety procedures, and emergency response techniques.

Check the MSDS before you start any job using a hazardous chemical. That way you will know exactly what the risks are and how to do the job safely.

Contact your Dealer for MSDS list of chemical products used on machine.

59 DISPOSE OF WASTE PROPERLY Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment and ecology. Potentially harmful waste on excavators includes such items as oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, and batteries.

Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers that may mislead someone into drinking from them.

Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source.

Air conditioning refrigerants escaping into the air can damage the Earth’s atmosphere. Government regulations may require a certified air conditioning service center to recover and recycle used air conditioning refrigerants.

Obtain information on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste from your local environmental or recycling center, or from your authorized dealer.

60

1-33

SECTION 1 PREVENT ACID BURNS Sulphuric acid in battery electrolyte is poisonous. It is strong enough to burn skin, eat holes in clothing, and cause blindness if splashed into eyes.

Avoid the hazard by: Filling batteries in a well-ventilated area.

Wearing eye protection and rubber gloves.

Avoiding breathing fumes when electrolyte is added.

Avoiding spilling or dripping electrolyte.

Use proper jump start procedure.

If you spill acid on yourself: Flush your skin with water.

Apply baking soda or lime to help neutralize the acid.

Flush your eyes with water for 10-15 minutes.

Get medical attention immediately.

61

If acid is swallowed: Drink large amounts of water of milk.

Then drink milk of magnesia, beaten eggs, or vegetable oil.

Following the presence of highly flammable vapours, extinguish all smoking materials and open flames before checking the fuel level, refuelling, replacing the filters or opening the drain plug.

Do not refuel the machine while the engine is running.

Do not use matches, cigar lighters or torches as light sources on the machine.

NOTE: refuelling should be performed by means of decanted fuel. Transfer fuel from the storage container to the machine tank by using the electrical pump (upon request).

We advise to fill the tank at the end of the working day, to prevent condensation formation overnight.

Check that the tank does not run out of fuel, because this would cause air seepage in the fuel system and air should then be bled from the fuel tank.

- Open door (3).

- Verify the fuel level by means of indicator (1) located on the tank (4) side.

123

- Open the filler neck (2) by using the key supplied and refuel.

CHECKS BEFORE ENGINE START-UP CONTROLS CHECK Ensure that the safety lever (1) is locked (see paragraph “INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS” in this Chapter).

3-53

SECTION 3 WARM-UP IN COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS IMPORTANT: when hydraulic oil is cold, hydraulic functions move slowly.

Do not attempt normal machine operation until hydraulic functions move at close-to normal cycle times.

After completing warm-up operation, extend the bucket cylinder and keep the control operated for several seconds (no more than 30 seconds) at stroke end.

Retract the bucket cylinder and keep the control operated for several seconds (no more than 30 seconds) at stroke end.

Slowly operate the arm and boom cylinder a few times. Operate travel and swing functions slowly.

Cover short distances at the beginning.

130

Repeat the above procedures until the bucket cycle time is normal. In extremely cold conditions, extend the warming-up period by running the engine at medium speed.

Also after an accurate heating, the travel function can have a slow reaction for a certain period, due to the low temperature of the axles and transmission lubricants, and not because of possible inconvenients.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

MACHINE OPERATION

WARNING

WARNING

Keep the attachment down or in any case in a suitable position to guarantee maximum visibility and control of the machine. Do not slew the upper structure, raise the load or brake abruptly if not necessary. This may cause accidents. Should the machine be suddenly powered (after pulling out an electric line), never touch machine metal structure while getting off. Spot an even, not rough adjacent area and jump directly over it from the cab.

Working near electric lines can be very dangerous, therefore some special precautions should be observed. By “working near electric lines” we mean that the attachment or load raised by the machine (in any position) may reach the minimum safety distance according to local or international Safety Regulations.

For a riskless operating cycle, keep maximum distance from electric lines and always keep to the minimum safety distance recommended.

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 being responsible at the time by contract or law, are liable for the adoption of all necessary precautions. Contact the Electric Power Company owner of the line or its nearest branch before starting the work. Look up address and number in the telephone directory.

Define which precautions should be taken to guarantee work safety together with the Electric Power Company representative.

Decrease work speed. Reaction time could be too slow and distance evaluation wrong.

Warn all ground personnel to keep clear of the machine and its load at all times.

If the load has to be guided down for laying, ask the Power Company which precautions should be taken.

Appoint a person in charge to signal instructions.

This person will have the responsibility of observing the machine, any part of it and/or the load approaching the electric line from a better standpoint with respect to the Operator’s position. This signal-man shall directly communicate with the Operator and the Operator must pay special attention to any signals supplied.

Ensure that local and/or national Safety Regulations concerning work near electric lines are duly observed.

Working near overhead or underground electric lines involves the danger of severe injuries and even death. All electric lines should be considered as operating live lines even though it might be well known that a line is out of work and visibly connected to the ground.

Working on slopes is dangerous.

Do not travel with a loaded bucket or with a load being set downstream to upstream. Do not work while the bucket points uphill. We recommend to work on slopes with bucket pointed downhill. Check first machine stability with unloaded bucket and retracted attachment, by slowly swinging the upper structure by 360°. Keep the machine sufficiently far from the digging border.

Never dig under the machine.

Never use the bucket or attachment to lift persons or carry riders on the machine.

Before beginning the work near gas distribution mains or other public utilities (water ducts, sewers, telephone and/or telematic lines, etc.), always contact the nearest branch of the Power Company.

When working in or near pits, in ditches or near gullies, very high rocky or supporting walls, check that the walls are sufficiently propped up according to safety regulations in force, in order to avoid collapsing hazards. Pay the utmost attention when working near overhanging walls. When digging, pay attention to risks of collapsing and landslides.

Always check ground conditions and the conditions of the material to be removed. Support any exposed area to prevent possible collapsing or landslides when: - digging near recently formed trenches filled with materials; - bad ground conditions; - digging trenches subject to vibrations from railroads, working machines, city or highway traffic.

Always appoint a person in charge of signalling when Operator visibility in the working area is limited.

Keep all people clear of the attachment (or any auxiliary equipment) when raised, to prevent possible injuries.

Only highly experienced personnel should be allowed to work on difficult virgin soils.

3-71

SECTION 3 MAIN OPERATING RULES KEEP THE BUCKET LOWERED Always move with lowered bucket, especially on slopes or during transfers. The bucket, however, should be sufficiently raised from the ground to overcome possible obstacles. Do not use the bucket to lift or carry riders.

170

171 AVOID ELECTRIC LINES

WARNING Contact with electric lines may cause severe injuries and even death.

When working near electric lines, NEVER MOVE any part of the machine or loads at a distance lower than 3 meters plus twice the length of line insulators.

Perform all checks and behave in compliance with any applicable local regulation. Wet ground will expand the area that could cause any person on it to be affected by electric shock. Keep all people and/or assistants away from the working area.

172

3-72

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AVOID TIPPING OVER When working on slopes, do not swing the upper structure and boom towards the downhill side.

When moving heavy loads at the sides of the tyres pay attention that the machine does not overturn.

With a loaded bucket, pay the utmost attention and care while swinging or lifting the attachment.

173 WORK WITH CAUTION While working, when the machine is moving or being transported, avoid any contact of the boom and/or arm with possible overhanging obstacles.

Prior to digging, check location of electrical lines, gas ducts, water pipes or other public utilities installations. To solve possible doubts, contact local authorities and/or the Power companies (Electric Power, Gas, Telephone, Water, Telecommunications, etc.).

WARNING Contact with electric lines may cause severe injuries and even death.

If optical fibre cables are accidentally damaged, do not look into their ends to avoid eye injuries.

174

Never dig under the machine. In case of emergency, should the engine stall and not be possibly restarted, lower the boom and rest the bucket safely onto the ground following the EMERGENCY BOOM LOWERING PROCEDURE detailed in this chapter.

175

3-73

SECTION 3 CHECK THE WORKING AREA Always make sure that the ground supporting the work has sufficient strength to firmly sustain machine weight.

176 AUTOMATIC LIFTING While lifting the machine by the front thrust of the attachment, the angle between both arms should always be kept between 90° and 110°. The external part of the bucket should be used as a strength point on the ground. Refer to the shown configuration.

177 AVOID EXCESSIVE DIGGING EFFORTS Never travel with the bucket teeth deep into the ground, nor try to dig using the excavator weight as additional digging force: both operations may cause excessive machine stresses.

178

3-74

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WORKING IN WATER OR ON SOFT TERRAINS - Do not operate the machine with the axles, transmission, or prop-shafts submerged in water.

Avoid travelling in water, if possible.

- When travelling in water is unavoidable, the machine may be submerged up to a depth of 30 cm, as long as the stream bed is even and the water flows slowly.

If the bed is uneven and the water flow is rapid, leave safety margins in order to guarantee the machine will not be submerged deeper than 30 cm (11.8 in).

- When operating the machine on muddy grounds, mud will easily accumulate on the chassis frame, even when the chassis is not directly submerged.

Periodically check and clean, if necessary.

179

IMPORTANT: once the axles, transmission, etc. are submerged, they should be reconditioned immediately. Otherwise, operated parts and brakes could be exposed to sever wear and become inoperable.

Consult the nearest dealer.

HAMMERING OR PILING Never use the bucket as a hammer. Improper use would damage the bucket and other parts of the front attachment.

180

3-75

SECTION 3 DIGGING INSTRUCTIONS - Mainly use arm force to excavate.

- Move the arm and bucket control levers back and forth a few times to remove soil stuck to the bucket.

- Position the bucket as parallel as possible to the digging direction, and use full-stroke bucket wrist action to effectively fill the bucket.

- When digging trenches, position the chassis frame parallel to the trench and move in reverse to dig the trench.

- Avoid extending cylinders to stroke ends. Try to operate cylinders by leaving a proper distance before stroke end.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MANOEUVRING OF HANGING LOADS

WARNING The machine has been specially designed for digging/loading operations. The moving of hanging loads to complete the working cycle digging and/or loading, is always allowed.

When moving hanging loads, strictly follow national regulations concerning safety rules, the rules listed here below and those described on chapter SAFETY RULES.

WARNING Boom antidrop valves, located on cylinders, the acoustic alarm, the loads table hanging in the cabin and the bucket hook ARE SAFETY DEVICES, belonging to the hanging loads handling option.

When one of said safety devices is missing or damaged, the machine cannot be used to handle hanging loads.

For the handling of hanging loads, observe following:

WARNING Before starting to work check the valves for any remarkable damage or abnormal noise. If troubles are noticed, refer to your Dealer and, in the meantime, do not use the machine for handling hanging loads.

Check for lifting devices (hooks, chains, etc.) integrity and make sure they are not too much worn out.

Keep to the rules in force concerning checking procedures of said devices (not supplied with the machine).

WARNING To avoid injuries, do not exceed the machine load rated capacity. If the machine is not set on a level ground, load capacities are reduced. Anyway, always operate with care.

- If available, lower stabilizers or blade to the ground to increase machine stability.

- Pre-arrange the engine rpm according to the hydraulic effort required.

- Evaluate (If unknown) the weight of the object to be handled and compare it with the data of the table located in the cab and shown in this chapter.

Do not lift loads exceeding the maximum values shown on the table.

- Before any lifting operation, press switch (4) to connect anti-tipping sensor. This sensor activates the acoustic alarm when reaching safety limit load.

HYDRAULIC BREAKER HYDRAULIC BREAKER SELECTION AND INSTALLATION If it is required to install a hydraulic breaker on the excavator, select a breaker model that meets the requirements of stability, pressure and oil quantity of the excavator hydraulic system.

WARNING Ask your Dealer for the choice of the most suitable breaker for your machine and also for the possible regulations necessary to supply the electric power and the working pressures needed by the tool chosen.

1

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING THE HYDRAULIC BREAKER

WARNING The hydraulic breaker is much heavier than the bucket, therefore it reduces excavator stability and increases overturn hazard. During operation, splinters or flying debris may hit the cab or other parts of the excavator.

Observe all following precautions and take all necessary measures to prevent accidents that may damage the excavator and cause personal injuries to the Operator.

2 Avoid hitting objects with breaker. The breaker is heavier than the bucket and lowers faster. This may cause damages to the breaker, attachment, and upper structure.

Always lower the breaker slowly until the chisel point touches the object to be broken before starting breaker operation.

Do not use the hydraulic breaker and/or slew function to push objects so to avoid damages to the attachment.

NOTE: for any operation with the nibbler, refer to the relevant Instruction Manual provided by the Manufacturer.

CAUTION Ask your Dealer for the choice of nibbler most suitable for your machine and also for the possible regulations of the feed capacity and of the working pressures needed by the chosen tool.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED WHEN USING THE NIBBLER

WARNING The nibbler is much heavier than the bucket, therefore it reduces excavator stability and increases overturn hazard. During operation, splinters or flying debris may hit the cab or other parts of the excavator.

Observe all following precautions and take all necessary measures to prevent accidents that may damage the excavator and cause personal injuries to the Operator.

16

Never support machine weight by means of nibbler and cylinders set in end-of-stroke configuration (extended or retracted) to avoid damaging the front attachment. While the nibbler cylinder is completely extended the front attachment is subject to greater wear.

While using the nibbler, the front attachment should be directed towards the excavator in longitudinal direction. Any use including different configurations could compromise stability and cause machine tipping over.

17

4-7

SECTION 4

WARNING Works for the demolition of buildings and general structures present a high level of intrinsic risks.

Should a building be demolished by means of any excavator equipped with standard arm and bucket configuration, consider that the maximum working height should not exceed the values approved on local and national regulations.

18 When operating the nibbler up high with the boom fully extended, pay attention to falling objects.

When operating the nibbler on a floor of a building, first make sure that the floor has sufficient strength to support the load caused by crushing in addition to machine weight.

Operate the excavator on a level and firm ground.

Never operate on demolished materials or on slopes.

Do not use the nibbler to haul or move crushed scraps.

Always remove the nibbler from the excavator before transporting the machine.

Do not travel the excavator with the bucket cylinder fully extended. This may damage the attachment due to high travel vibrations.

ATTACHMENT SLEW SYSTEM This system is especially suitable while using attachments requiring rotation. They are: nibbler, clamshell bucket, etc.

The choice of a rotating equipment, must be made in agreement with the Dealer. This is because the equipment one intends to use must ensure, in any case, the stability of the excavator and the compatibility with its hydraulic and electrical systems. The evaluation of the factors mentioned above can make the engineers decide to equip the excavator with further devices to prevent the tipping over the machine.

Also, the system requires adjustments, which must be performed exclusively by engineers.

23

ATTACHMENT SLEW CONTROL - By pressing button (A) the clamshell bucket will rotate counterclockwise.

24 - While pressing key (K) the clamshell bucket will rotate clockwise.

WARNING - When a rotating attachment is installed, operate and slew the excavator slowly.

- Rotate the attachment when the excavator is stopped. This is in order to avoid dangerous slew which could endanger the stability.

- When lowering the boom, make sure that the rotating attachment is in vertical position.

- Never use a rotating attachment for piling jobs or removing poles.

25

- Before leaving the operator’s compartment, lower the boom until the rotating attachment rests on the ground. This is to avoid that the attachment loads the excavator, representing a danger of personal injuries, being suspended in the air.

The following chapter MAINTENANCE is directed to specialised personnel of the service network.

Users/operators of the machine are authorised to perform the following operations, in compliance with the general precautions as indicated:

NEVER USE YOUR BARE HANDS to check for pressure leaks. Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin.

When service or maintenance require access to areas that cannot be reached from the ground, use a ladder or step platform conforming to local or national regulations to reach the working area.

Always perform all service or maintenance work with the greatest care and attention. Use only approved and grounded auxiliary power sources for heaters, battery chargers, pumps and similar equipment to reduce electrical shock hazard. Before starting the engine, warn all people who are carrying out repairs or other works around the machine.

Keep your hands and face away from loose hose connections while carrying out leak and performance tests on injectors and/or systems. Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Do not work under or near moving parts of the attachment or other machine parts if not adequately supported and locked. Always move the safety lever to the lock position.

- Greasing (attachment, slewing ring, front axle pivot bush and drive shaft).

- Check liquid levels and top up when required (engine oil, hydraulic system oil, engine coolant).

- Air filter cleaning.

- Checking tyre pressure and possible inflation.

Do not allow unauthorised personnel to operate or service this machine. Carefully read the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual before starting, operating, maintaining, fuelling or repairing the machine.

Never lubricate, repair or adjust the machine with the engine running, except when this is specifically required by the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual to avoid being caught in or crushed by machine moving parts.

Stop the machine according to the procedure detailed in the Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual prior to lubricating or servicing.

Each time it is necessary to disassemble or assemble machine components which should be supported by jacking means, ensure that the supports under the jack and between jack and machine are adequate to the load they should hold. Immediately transfer load onto appropriate means of support or jacks. Do not loosen hydraulic connections located on the front attachment if the attachment is not lowered and fully resting on to the ground, and all residual pressure has not been relieved with stopped engine.

In case of sudden engine stall, lower the attachment to the ground as possible and contact your authorised Dealer before carrying out any work on the hydraulic system. Never work on or under the machine or on its components if supported solely by jacks or other lifting means according to local or national safety regulations. Never work under or near an attachment or parts of the machine which are not adequately supported or locked. Always move the safety lever to the lock position prior to cleaning, repairing or servicing the machine and after parking it to prevent injuries. Never use gasoline, solvents or other flammable fluids for cleaning operations. Use only proprietary certified solvents, non-flammable and non-toxic.

WARNING Always lock engine hood before servicing any component inside the engine compartment.

Keep all people clear of equipment and/or attachments when in the raised position to prevent injury hazards.

Following the presence of flammable fluids, do not use matches, cigar lighters or torches as lighting means when servicing the machine.

Deflate tyres before removing any foreign objects from treads. In any case, you should deflate them before disassembly.

Always use suitable tools to align holes. DO NOT USE FINGERS OR HANDS. Do not park, service, repair the machine nor carry out any work without prior moving the hydraulic system lock safety lever in the locked position.

Always lower the attachment to the ground and relieve pressure from all circuits before carrying out any type of maintenance work.

WARNING - Deflate tyres before removing any foreign objects from treads. In any case, you should deflate them before disassembly.

Improper inflation greatly contributes to tyre troubles and failure.

If inflation pressure is poor, the tyre ply will get damaged. A continuous tyre sideways bending may eventually cause cuts and detachment from tyre plies. Avoid also inflation with excessive pressure.

To carry out work on very soft terrains, the machine floating can be improved, by decreasing the tyres inflation pressure. The recommended pressure should be applied on cold tyres. Should the machine be used over continuous working shifts of 24-hours, and therefore pressure cannot be checked on perfectly cold tyres, a correction factor has to be defined as follows: check pressure on cold tyres several time, then check it again after two hours of operation. The average difference must be added to the recommended pressure when checking the tyres during constant operation. Continuous operation of machine builds up heat inside tyres, thus increasing inner pressure.

During the tyre planning phase such normal increases have been considered.

54 Inflation pressure in travel conditions (cold).

IMPORTANT: check wheel nuts tightening to prevent possible loosening.

Tighten wheel nuts according to the following value: 50 daNm (369 lbf·ft).

- Open engine hood and the air filter bay, hydraulic pump bay, and battery/radiator bay covers. Latch covers in the open position as detailed in paragraph ENGINE HOOD AND ACCESS COVERS. Hoses and lines check - Check hose clamps and fit then if missing, check possible twisted hoses, flexible lines or hoses touching between them, damaged oil cooler, and loosened oil cooler flange screws. Moreover, through this check possible leaks may be detected.

- Check the hoses, lines and oil cooler by especially observing the points listed below. In this way possible damages causing future leaks may be detected. If any fault is found, replace or tighten the connections.

- Tighten, repair or replace all damaged, loose or missing clamps. Check the hydraulic oil cooler, cooler sleeves and companion flanges which should be free from leaks. Replace damaged or worn hoses and lines.

- Never bend or hit high pressure lines.

- Never install hoses or lines if damaged or bent.

- When connecting hoses and/or lines, pay attention to keep sealing surfaces clean from dirt and not to damage them. Observe the following precautions: wash pipes and hoses, both inside and outside, with washing fluid. Thoroughly dry them before reconnection; use exclusively O-ring seals without damages or faults. Pay attention not to damage seals during assembly; avoid hose twisting while connecting them. Duration of twisted hoses is drastically reduced; carefully tighten the low pressure hose clamps by observing the suggested 0.6 ÷ 0.7 daNm (4 ÷ 5 lbf·ft) torque. Do not over tighten.

5-32

59

MAINTENANCE FLANGES ASSEMBLY PRECAUTIONS - Make sure that the sealing surfaces are clean and not damaged. Grooves and roughness may cause leaks and gasket wear. Possible differences in height may cause gasket extrusion. Replace the component when no repair is possible.

60 - Make sure that only the prescribed O-rings are used. Check O-rings for possible damages. Pay attention not to file O-ring surfaces. While assembling an O-ring in its groove, apply grease to keep it in position.

WRONG

- Assemble the loosened half flanges. Make sure that the central groove is centrally and perpendicularly arranged with respect to the passing hole.

Manually screw the fixing screws so to retain the pieces. Do not pinch the O-ring.

61 - An even tightening is obtained by alternatively and diagonally tightening the screws, as indicated. Do no use air-operated wrenches. They could cause a complete screw tightening before the other ones are tightened, thus damaging the O-ring or causing uneven tightening.

SECTION 7 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

GENERAL NOTES

WARNING - Use exclusively grounded sources of power for heaters, battery-chargers, pumps and similar devices to minimise electrical shock hazard.

- Make sure to connect the cables to the correct poles (+ to + and - to -) at both ends.

- Do not short-circuit the terminals.

- If batteries are to be recharged or if booster batteries are needed for starting, remove battery cell plugs.

- FLAMMABLE VAPOURS. Extinguish all smoking materials and naked flames before checking, filling or charging the batteries.

- Avoid causing sparks while testing batteries.

IMPORTANT: - Improper radio-communications equipment and associated parts and/or improper assembly of radio-communications equipment affects machine electronic components with consequent unexpected machine movement. Consult your Dealer when installing radio-communications equipment or any additional electronic component, and when replacing an electric part.

- Do not disassemble or change electric or electronic components.

- Consult your Dealer to replace or change such components, if necessary.

IMPORTANT: - The electrical system of this machine is 24 V and is powered by two batteries connected in series.

- The machine is equipped with complex electric and electronic components which can be handled exclusively by qualified personnel.

- Do not run the engine with disconnected alternator threaded terminal.

- If the batteries have been recharged using an external equipment, they should then be reinstalled onto the machine paying attention to match terminals pertaining to the same sign (+ to + and - to -).

- This norm should be observed also when the engine is to be started using slave batteries.

- If repair using electrical welders is required on the machine, it is good practice to disconnect the batteries and alternator, and ground the welder as near as possible to the welding point.

NOTE: the electrical system is powered only when the key-start switch is turned to the ACC or ON positions.

SECTION 7 BATTERIES (Check)

WARNING - Battery gases may explode. Keep away sparks and flames. Use a pocket torch to check electrolyte level.

- Sulphuric acid contained in the electrolyte is poisonous. It can burn the skin, corrode clothes and cause loss of sight if sprayed into the eyes.

- To avoid dangers: Top up the batteries in a well ventilated area.

Wear protective glasses and rubber gloves.

Avoid breathing vapours when adding distilled water.

Do not spill or drip the electrolyte.

When starting the machine with booster batteries, observe the procedures detailed in chapter OPERATING NORMS, in paragraph STARTING THE ENGINE WITH BOOSTER BATTERIES. Always ensure to connect cables to correct poles (+ to +) and (- to -) at both ends. Do not short-circuit the terminals.

1

- If acid comes to touch the skin: wash skin with water.

If acid has reached the eyes, wash with water for at least 15 minutes. Immediately seek medical attention.

If acid has been ingested, immediately seek medical attention.

- Batteries installed to this type of machine are maintenance-free, therefore they do not require top-ups with distilled water. In exceptional cases, however, it is possible to restore the electrolyte level by removing cell plugs and adding distilled water. The electrolyte level must lay between maximum and minimum notches of the battery.

Charge the battery after topping up.

IMPORTANT: if it is necessary to add distilled water in freezing weather conditions, top up at the beginning of the working day. Otherwise the battery should be recharged.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

CAUTION Always disconnect the negative (-) ground terminal first and reconnect it last.

- Remove battery protection (1).

- Check inside the battery bay to assess possible electrolyte leaks. Otherwise clean accurately to avoid metal parts corrosion.

- Keep the terminals and plugs located on top of the battery clean at all times to prevent battery from discharging. Check battery terminals: clamps should not be loose and should not show signs of rust or oxidation. Apply petroleum jelly to the terminals to prevent corrosion.

- It is better not to shut the engine off in case of short stops. Let it idle as each start-up requires considerable power supply from the batteries.

3

- Observe the following norms to preserve battery efficiency: with the engine stopped, remove the ignition key to avoid progressive battery discharge; do not keep the lights switched on for a long time with the engine stopped or idling.

- If a battery in a 24 V system is faulty, but the other is still operational, replace the faulty battery with a new one of the same type. For example, replace a maintenance-free type faulty battery with a new battery of the maintenance free type. Different types of batteries may be characterized by a different charging speed. Such difference could overcharge one of the batteries and damage it.

- Assemble battery protection (1).

4 Handle and dispose of batteries according to current regulations. Use only authorised disposal procedure. If in doubt, contact authorities concerned.

SECTION 7 FUSES - The fuse box is located behind the Operator’s seat. There is a decal on the fuse box cover detailing location and rating of the fuses.

IMPORTANT: always install fuses of correct rating to avoid overcharge damage to the electrical system.

- Pull the fuse box cover upwards to remove. Under the cover there are the spare fuses.

- Moreover, in the air cleaner bay some high amperage fuses are fitted.

- Replace the faulty fuse after checking the associated circuit.

Fuse No.
