1.5 Special work related to the maintenance and repair of the machine
Observe the adjustment, maintenance and inspection activities and intervals set out in the operating
manual, including information on the replacement of parts or assemblies! These activities may be
performed by skilled personnel only. Brief the operating personnel before initiating special repair or
maintenance activities. Appoint a person to supervise such activities.

devices or any work related to inspection, maintenance and repair, always observe the start-up and
shut-down procedures described in the operating manual and the information on maintenance work.
Carry out maintenance and repair work only of the machine is positioned on stable and level ground
and has been secured against inadvertent movement and buckling.
If the machine is completely shut down for maintenance and repair work, it must be secured against
inadvertent starting. To avoid the risk of accidents, individual parts and large assemblies being moved
for replacement purposes should be carefully attached to lifting tackle and secured. Use only suitable
and technically perfect lifting gear and suspension systems with adequate lifting capacity. Never work
or stand under suspended loads.
The fastening of loads and the instructing of crane operators should be entrusted to experienced
persons only. The marshaller giving the instructions must be within sight or sound of the operator.
For carrying out overhead assembly work always use specially designed or otherwise safety-oriented
ladders and working platforms. Never use machine parts as a climbing aid. Wear safety harness when
carrying out maintenance work at greater heights. Keep all handles, steps, handrails, platforms,
landings and ladders free from dirt.
Clean the machine, especially connections and threaded unions, of any traces of oil, fuel or
preservatives before carrying out maintenance/ repair. Never use aggressive detergents. Use lint-free
cleaning rags. Before cleaning the machine with water, steam jet or detergents, cover or tape up all
openings which - for safety and functional reasons - must be protected against water, steam or
detergent penetration. Special care must be taken with electric motors. After cleaning, remove all
covers and tapes applied for that purpose. After cleaning, examine all loose connections, chafe marks
and damage. Any defects found must be rectified without delay.
Always tighten any screwed connections that have been loosened during maintenance and repair.
Any safety devices removed for set-up, maintenance or repair purposes must be refitted and checked

When working with the machine, maintain a safe distance from overhead electric lines. If work is to be
carried out close to overhead lines, the working equipment must be kept well away from them.
