4.7 RESIDUAL RISK
Even with careful operation and compliance with all standards and regulations, risks cannot be completely excluded when
using the loader.
The components of the loader and of the entire system meet current safety requirements. Even when the loader is used
exclusively for its intended purpose and all instructions are followed, certain residual risks cannot be ruled out.
Such residual risks cannot be completely excluded even outside the narrow risk zone around the loader. Persons in the
vicinity of the loader must be extremely vigilant so that they can react immediately in the event of a malfunction, crash,
accident etc.
The risks include:
Leakage of operating fluids due to cracks or ruptures of pipes and tanks;
Risk of accident when driving over dicult terrain or surfaces such as slopes, smooth or uneven surfaces,
or at poor visibility, etc.;
Falling, tripping, etc. when mounting the loader, especially in wet weather or with leaking working fluids,
or on icy surfaces;
Risk of fire and explosion caused by batteries and electric voltage;
Human error as a result of non-compliance with safety regulations;
Unattended damage or wrong and worn parts;
Insucient maintenance and inspections;
Use of wrong consumables;
Not observing inspection intervals.
The manufacturer is not liable for accidents involving the loader which may occur as a result of the operator’s non-compli-
ance with these instructions - whether intentional or due to negligence.
Danger
All persons in the vicinity of the loader must be instructed on the risks arising from its use.
Danger
Danger of injury when the loader overturns!
Use the seat belt!
Even if using an approved restraint system, there is a residual risk of injury should the loader overturn. This risk of injury can
be reduced by the combined use of a restraint system and the seat belt. In addition, the seat belt protects against the conse-
quences of rear-end collisions and ramp fall accidents.

4.8 STABILITY
The loader stability tests have been performed in accordance with the latest technical standards; its stability is guaranteed
providing that the loader is used correctly and for the intended purpose. However, these standards only provide for static
and dynamic centrifugal forces that may manifest in the types of applications that are in accordance with the operating rules
and with the intended purpose.
Consequently, loss of stability or the risk of exceeding tolerable distribution of forces due to improper use or operation
cannot be completely excluded. Loss of stability can be prevented or minimized in the following ways:
Always secure the load against slipping, e.g. by tying.
Always transport precarious loads in suitable containers.
Always drive slowly when turning.
Drive with the load lowered.
Align the load as close to the center of the loader as possible.
Try to avoid turning when driving transversely on slopes or on sloping surfaces.
Never drive on slopes or sloping surfaces with the load facing downhill.
Do not drive on the edges of ramps or on stairs.
4.9 SPECIAL RISKS RELATED TO THE USE OF THE LOADER AND ITS ATTACHMENTS
If the loader is used in another than standard manner, or when the vehicle operator is unsure whether the loader can be

6.3 BASIC SAFETY RULES FOR OPERATION
6.3.1 INSURANCE COVERAGE ON A CONSTRUCTION SITE
In many cases, public transport is not permitted on construction sites.
6.3.2 ALTERATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS
If you use the loader for works not specified in regulations or in these operating instructions, and the loader must be mod-
ified or retrofitted, please note that any alteration of the loader design may aect its stability and performance, which may
result in various accidents. Therefore, contact your service center before making any modifications.
Without the manufacturer’s consent, it is prohibited to make changes that, among other things, adversely aect the loader
stability or load capacity, or its safety functions.
Changes to the loader may only be made with the manufacturer’s prior written consent. If necessary, consent of the com-
petent authority must be obtained.
Changes to the brake system, steering, controls, peripheral vision and special equipment (such as attachments) also are
subject to the manufacturer’s prior written consent.
Warning
In order to ensure that the loader has insurance coverage against claims by third parties in the
event of damage caused in areas with limited public transport, the manufacturer recommends
that commercial liability insurance be taken out.
Warning
When welding on the loader, the batteries and all connections to the electrical control units must
be disconnected. More detailed information on these topics can be obtained from an authorized
service center.
Warning
Additional openings in the battery cover present a risk of explosion! Volatile gases may be re-
leased, which can explode and cause harm, including fatal injuries. Sealing the openings with
plugs does not provide an additional barrier to gas leakage.
Do not drill any holes into the battery cover!
Otherwise the structural stability will be compromised of the battery cover, which then may break. It can hit the driver’s seat,
which poses a risk of accident due to uncontrolled movements of the controls while driving.
Should the manufacturer be wound up and its company is not taken over by a new owner (legal entity), the operator can
make modifications to the loader.
