10. For special uses, the machine must be fitted with certain safety components. Start operation of the
machine only with these parts fitted and in good operational condition and with all maintenance lids
closed.
11. Note before care and servicing (instructions on page 14):
11.1. Unless instructed otherwise, proceed as follows in the event of maintenance- and repair works:
11.1.a Stop motor.
11.1.b Switch off main switch and padlock machine against unauthorised operation. Remove key from
padlock and keep it during maintenance. Disconnect supply mains from plug.

cleaning with water or water vapour (high pressure cleaner).
14. Note before machine operating:
14.1. Use appropriate hoists (as per DIN 30722 German Industrial Standard). All loads must be carefully
attached to the hoists.
CAUTION Do not exceed the maximum permissible total weight of 12 t (MPC-A) or
15 t (MPC-K, MPC-L) !
DANGER During the operation of hoists, it is strictly forbidden to stand or work
beneath them.
Always wear gloves when working with metal ropes.
14.2. Inexperienced personnel must never be authorized to perform loading or give directions to crane or
truck drivers. When giving directions, remain within each other´s sight or hearing.
14.3. The machine must always be supported in such a way that weight transfers do not cause
unsteadiness. Avoid that steel rests on steel.
14.4. For maintenance/repair works above body height, adequate ladders and/or platforms are necessary.
Never use machine parts for climbing. All handles, steps, rails, platforms, ladders, and the like must
be kept clean and free from dirt, grease/oil, snow, and ice.
15. Do not effect any modifications on the machine, such as rebuilding or adding-on, without the
supplier´s prior approval. This also applies to the mounting and adjustment of safety installations
and -valves and to the welding of supporting structures.
