To lubricate the machine you must use a plastic grease containing lithium according to:

ISO 6743/9 CCEB 2

DIN 51 502 KP2K-30

Propane-butane (LPG) is an extremely flammable substance and any leakage causes a high risk of fire or explosion!

Propane-butane (LPG) is heavier than air and may accumulate in lower places – danger of fire or explosion!

Gas inhalation may cause headache, weakness, confusion, dizziness and nausea. It causes frostbites in the liquid state in contact with skin!

Avoid contact with skin. Wear suitable protective clothing! Wear protective gloves resistant to oil substances complying with EN374!

Wear safety goggles!

In case of excess of vapour concentration limits in air, use a suitable breathing mask. Recommended: organic fume and vapour filter (type A, AX)!

No smoking at work.

Provide adequate area ventilation!

Always require a material safety data sheet to the delivered gas bottle. Before mounting the gas bottle on the machine, read and check that the gas bottle meets all conditions for putting the machine into operation.

The machine must be equipped with a fire extinguisher. Have the fire extinguisher ready on the driver's stand at a place intended for this purpose.

When the machine is operated in underground garages or other underground areas, observe the national safety regulations regarding space ventilation.

Stop the gas leakage.

In case of gas leakage, inform relevant national authorities.
