SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION, SAFETY, PLATES AND DECALS
FOREWORD
The loader backhoes 580SR - 580SR+ - 590SR -
695SR have been designed to perform most earth-
moving operations.
If you use this machine for duties involving the use
of attachments, accessories, or special tools, con-
sult your Dealer to make sure that the adaptations or
modifications carried out are in conformity with the
machine’s technical specifications and with current
regulations on safety.
Any modifications or adaptations which are not
approved by the Manufacturer may invalidate the
machine’s original conformity with safety require-
ments.
DESIGNATED USE
The machine has been built in accordance with
state-of-the-art standards and the recognized safety
rules.
The machine must be used in accordance with its
designated use, by observing the safety and pre-
cautionary rules and by strictly following the operat-
ing instructions. Any functional disorders, especially
those affecting the safety of the machine, should
therefore be rectified immediately.
The manufacturer/supplier cannot be held responsi-
ble for any damage resulting from other than the
designated use. The risk involved in such misuse
lies entirely with the user.
The current Operator’s Manual is the user’s guide
for correct run-in, use and maintenance of the
machine.
Carefully read this Operator’s Manual and store it in
the cab for quick location and reference.
Instructions concerning safety, operation and main-
tenance have been developed to permit safe serv-
ice and operation of this machine.
In the event of queries or suggestions relevant to
your machine do not hesitate to address to your
Dealer. Dealers have qualified and trained person-
nel at disposal as well as Original Spares, means
and equipment suitable to carry out all necessary
maintenance operations.

DANGER
A different use of the excavator or of its working
equipment:
- for lifting or transporting persons;
- as a working platform;
- for lifting loads without the attachment being
approved for this purpose;
- for pulling slung loads;
is considered contrary to the designated use.
Improper use may cause injury or life-threatening
risks for the operator and for other persons.
DANGER
For clarity purposes, some figures in this Manual
show the machine with protection panels or covers
removed. Never operate the machine with any pro-
tection panels or covers removed.
DANGER
It is absolutely forbidden to tamper and/or change
the setting of any of the hydraulic system valves to
avoid damaging machine components with conse-
quent risks to personal safety.

SECTION 1
1-2
Do not use this machine for any applications or pur-
poses other than those described in this Manual. If
you use this machine for duties involving the use of
attachments, accessories, or special tools, consult
your Dealer to make sure that the adaptations or
modifications carried out are in conformity with the
machine’s technical specifications and with current
regulations on safety.
Any modifications or adaptations which are not
approved by the Manufacturer may invalidate the
machine’s original conformity with safety require-
ments.
IMPORTANT: the engine and fuel system on your
machine is designed and built to government emis-
sions standards. Tampering by dealers, customers,
operators and users is strictly prohibited by law.
Failure to comply could result in government fines,
rework charges, invalid warranty, legal action and
possible confiscation of the machine until rework to
original condition is completed. Engine service and/
or repairs must be done by a certified technician
only.
Before entrusting this machine to an operator, make
sure that:
- the operator is qualified to operate the machine
correctly and safely;
- the operator has read and fully understood the
instructions given in this Manual.
Consult your Dealer to obtain extra manuals or
manuals in other languages.
Your Dealer is at your disposal for any further infor-
mation.
SPARE PARTS
The “non-genuine” spare parts have not been con-
trolled and authorized by the Manufacturer. The
assembly and/or use of such products may have
negative effects on the machine design features
and could impair its operation safety. The Manufac-
turer is not liable for any damage caused by “non-
genuine” spare parts or accessories.
WARRANTY
This machine is under warranty according to the
regulations in force in Your Country and in compli-
ance with the sales agreement drawn up with the
Dealer. The warranty, however, expires if the opera-
tion and maintenance instruction for this machine
and contained in this manual, have not been fol-
lowed.

herein are not binding. The Manufacturer, provided
that the basic characteristics of machine types
described and shown in this Manual remain the
same, reserves the right to change components,
parts and accessories supplied without any commit-
ment to timely update this publication; and this any

BEFORE USING THE MACHINE
Read and familiarize yourself with the instructions
and warnings shown in this manual before operating
the machine.
The presence of grease, oil, mud or (in winter) ice
on the steps and access handles can cause acci-
dents. Make sure they are always clean.
Remove anything which might hinder visibility.
Clean the windshield, windows and rearview mir-
rors.
Before travelling or working at night, check that the
lighting and signalling systems are operating cor-
rectly.
Make sure the doors and the engine guard are cor-
rectly fastened before undertaking any travel.
Make sure that no loose object or tool is left on the
machine or in the operator’s compartment.
The operator should be the only person on the
machine. Make sure there is nobody on or near the
machine.
When mounting or dismounting from the machine
always face the machine and use the steps and
access handles on the left-hand side of the
machine.
Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment
appropriate for the job:
- safety helmet;
- safety shoes;
- heavy gloves;
- reflective clothing;
- wet weather clothing.
If the environment conditions make it necessary, the
following personal safety equipment should be at
hand:
- respirators (or dustproof masks);

Before operating the machine, check the backhoe
attachment control pattern currently in use on the
machine. Failure to comply with these instructions
can cause unexpected machine movements, death
or serious injury.
Make sure that you fully understand the significance
of the safety decals on the machine. Make sure that
they are always clean and perfectly legible.
Be prepared for emergencies. Always keep a first
aid kit and a fire extinguisher close at hand on the
machine. Make sure that the fire extinguisher is
serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Check the machine at least once per working shift
for obvious damage and defects. Report any
changes (relevant to operation) immediately. If nec-
essary, stop the machine immediately and lock it.
Always fasten your seat belt before starting the
engine. The machine is equipped with a roll over
protection system (ROPS) which ensures your
safety. The seat belt will protect you efficiently if you
attach it correctly and if you always wear it. The seat
belt should not be too loose. It must not be twisted
or caught in the seat.

machine (emergency exit via the right hand door) in
case the machine falls over or if access via the left-
hand door is not possible. Make sure that the right-

ning work.
Keep away from dangerous areas such as ditches,
over-hangs, soft areas, etc.
Walk around the work site before using the machine
and look for hazards.
