2.8 Safety procedures
2.8.1 Equipment attachments
During all adjustments on equipment attachments (e.g. HVZ-UNI) it must be ensured that the attachment
cannot close unintentionally. Risk of injury!
All adjustments may only be made when the laying machine is shut down (pull handbrake) and the engine is
switched off!
2.8.2 Installation machine
•The installation machine has to be in good, safe working condition.
•Never exceed the maximum capacity/working load limit (WLL) of the installation machine!
•Only authorized and qualified persons are allowed to operate the installation machine.
•The operator must have all the necessary qualifications.
2.8.3 Safety in the operation of the laying machine
•The entry and exit may only be done from the left side (in the direction of travel) in order to avoid
unintentional activation of the controls.
•The operation of the laying machine is generally only permitted under optimum visibility conditions and
enough lighting (e.g. daylight)!
•By retrofitting appropriate headlamps (light package VM-301), work is also permitted in the dark.
•Always lower the load to approx. 20 cm above the ground when moving!
•The maximum load of the laying machine, its attachments (e.g. HVZ-UNI) and the loads attached to
them must not be exceeded!
•When leaving the laying machine, the driver must pull the handbrake and ensure that the laying
machine is on a horizontal surface. If necessary, use wheel chocks or the like to prevent the laying
machine from rolling away unintentionally.
•Unattended parking of the laying machine on inclined and sloping surfaces is not permitted!
•During operation of the machine, the operator must always ensure that the machine is in a safe
operating condition.
•Always disconnect the battery when working on the electrical system. Risk of electrical shock!

Safety
12 / 43
51500024
V2
GB
It is forbidden for persons to ride on the laying machine (by hanging on from the outside)!
Accident/life hazard!
•It is generally forbidden for persons to stand in the working and travel area of the installation
machine during installation work.
A minimum safety distance of 1.5 m between the person and the machine must be observed!
Exception: It is essential due to the type of use of the implement, e.g. by manually guiding a implement
at the handles.
•It is generally forbidden to stand under a suspended load!
•It is strictly forbidden to stand in the steering area/kink area of the machine! Risk of crushing the
feet/legs between the front wheels and the chassis.
•The driver must not leave the control position if the attachments of the laying machine are loaded
with laying material and the system is in operation.
•Never let the control lever valve (joystick) for operating the attachments, the control pedal for forward
and reverse travel or the control pedal for up and down movement of the boom spring back.
Otherwise there will be pressure surges in the forward and return lines! The laying material may fall
down and the hydraulic motors may be damaged!
2.8.4 Stability
Danger of overturning!
Only drive at walking speed and with the boom lowered (with and without load) if the following applies:
•No attachment equipment (e.g. HVZ-UNI) mounted on boom
•Driving curves
•Driving in unpaved and uneven terrain
•Terrain with slope
•Machine slope of more than 10° (~ 18 %)
Driving faster than step speed allowed if the following applies:
•Drive straight ahead (with and without attachment equipment and stone position)
•Driving in paved and level terrain
•Check terrain in advance for sufficient surface condition (such as large holes or broken ground).
•When using the laying machine on roofs, parking decks or other soft ground, the load capacity of the
ground must be checked in advance.
•In the event of accidents or when the laying machine tilts over, load-bearing parts must be inspected by
a specialist workshop before the machine is put back into operation.

correspond to those of the third-party attachment equipment. The responsibility for this lies solely with
the operator of the installation machine!
•The installation machine is no lifting equipment!
•All instructions in the instructions handed over with the installation machine must be observed.
It is not allowed to use the installation machine in public traffic –only construction sites or private
ground!
NOT ALLOWED ACTIVITIES:
Unauthorized alterations of the device and the use of any self-made additional equipment could cause
danger and are therefore forbidden!
Use of the machine after substantial modification, as well as after improper troubleshooting/maintenance
Never exceed the carrying capacity/working load limit (WLL) and the nominal width/nominal size of the
device.

4.1 Charging the Lithium Ion Batteries
Before the daily use of the machine, it is recommended to charge the lithium-ion batteries completely!
The lithium-ion batteries may only be recharged by suitably qualified persons.
Due to electrical voltage (230 v /400V) there is a danger to life if used improperly.
•Check the battery charging capacity in the display (in the driver's cab) →see the following chapter "Operation" or
"Display - Function overview".
•Open cover (see following chapter "Opening the cover")
There are two ways to charge the two lithium-ion batteries:
-with 230 V →Charging time approx. 4.6 h (from 0 to 100% charging capacity)
-with 440 V →Charging time approx. 2.3 h (from 0 to 100% charging capacity)
After the start, the digital instrument displays the string of the following
parameters:
•BATTERY VOLTAGE (two-colour red upper LED).
•Current supplied by the charger (two-colour red lower LED).
•TIME in hours missing until the end of charging (two-colour green
upper LED).
•Ah (two-colour green lower LED).
By pressing the MODE key, the sequence of the parameters is locked and
the last displayed value is retained. Press the MODE button again to
restart the parameter sequence.

Before putting the installation machine into operation, the safety regulations must be observed and the
maintenance work carried out.
To ensure safe and trouble-free operation of the installation machine, the following daily checks must be
carried out in particular.
4.2 Daily checks
Before the initial start-up and generally before each start-up, all liquid levels (hydraulic oil, wiping water
(optional)) must be checked and refilled if necessary!
4.2.1 Open cover
•In order to open the cover ②, the unlocking button ①
on the cover ② must first be actuated.

4.2.2 hydraulic oil check
•The installation machine must stand on absolutely level
ground.
•To check the hydraulic oil, the hydraulic ram of the
boom must be fully retracted and the boom at the
bottom of the ground.
•The oil level must be in the middle to the upper third of
the sight glass ③. If this is not the case, the
corresponding hydraulic oil must be refilled!
As soon as the boom is moved all the way up,
the oil level drops to the lower part of the
sight glass.
4.2.2.1 Refill hydraulic oil
The installation machine must be placed on an
absolutely level surface.
To top up the hydraulic oil, the hydraulic ram
of the boom must be completely retracted or
the boom must be at the bottom of the
ground.
Otherwise the wrong oil level will be
displayed.
Switch off traction drive (ignition to 0)
