Avoid the following risks:
• Risk of cave-in – do not drive up to the edge of an unsecured pit.
• Risk of collapse – do not undermine the foundations of walls.
• Risk of falling stones, earth and debris – do not load under projecting
earth.
• Risk of tipping over – do not excavate deeply under the front side of the
machine. The earth under the machine could collapse.
• Risk of tipping over – do not perform demolition work under the
machine.
Demolition or excavation work
• When working on roofs or similar structures, check the resistance and
the structure itself before starting work. The building can collapse,
causing serious injury, death and damage.
• Do not place the machine directly under the workplace during
demolition. Parts can fall onto the machine or the building can
collapse, causing serious injury, death and damage.
• Do not use the impact force of the attachment to perform demolition
work. This can cause serious injury, death and damage.
• The machine can lose its balance and tip over if heavy attachments
(demolition hammers, for example) are used. Proceed as follows when
performing such work:
- Never lower, turn or set down the attachment abruptly.
- Do not extend or retract the bucket cylinder abruptly, otherwise the
machine can tip over.
• Do not raise the loader unit and the attachment over the heads of other
workers or over the seats of trucks or of other means of transport. The
material can tip over, or the attachment can knock against the truck
and cause serious injury, death or damage.
• Unauthorized persons are not allowed to operate the machine.
• Look out for high-voltage lines, underground cables, gas and water
pipes, etc., during excavation work.
Risk zone awareness
• The risk zone is the area in which persons are at risk due to the
movements of the machine, work equipment, additional equipment, or
material.
• The risk zone also includes areas affected by falling material,
equipment, or constructions debris. The risk zone must be extended in
the immediate vicinity of buildings, scaffolds, or other elements of
construction.
• Seal off the risk zone if it is not possible to keep a safe distance. Stop
work immediately if persons do not leave the risk zone in spite of
warnings.

To ensure safe operation of the machine:
• Do not operate the machine if any safety devices or guards are missing
or inoperative.
• Do not modify or defeat the safety devices.
• Only use accessories or attachments that are approved by Wacker
Neuson.
Safe operating practices
When operating this machine, do:
• Remain aware of the machine’s moving parts. Keep hands, feet, and
loose clothing away from the machine’s moving parts.
• Always remain seated and wear the seat belt at all times while
operating the machine.
• Know the machine’s lifting capacity. Do not exceed the Rated
Operating Capacity (ROC) for the machine. See chapter Technical
Data.
When operating this machine:
• Do not operate a machine in need of repair.
• Do not attempt to start the machine when standing alongside it. Only
start the engine when seated in the driver's seat, with the seat belt
fastened and with the controls in the neutral position.
• Do not leave the machine running unattended.
• Do not use a mobile device while operating this machine.
• Do not consume the operating fluids used in this machine.
• Do not use the machine as a crane. Compact loaders are not approved
for craning applications. These craning applications include raising,
transporting, and lowering point loads with the help of slings and load-
securing devices (for example, ropes and chains). This applies, for
example, to lifting and lowering pipes, shaft rings or containers.
Preparing for use
• Keep the machine clean. This reduces the risk of fire hazards, such as
combustible material around the engine, and reduces the risk of injury
or operational accidents that can be caused by dirt build-up on the
accelerator pedal, mirrors (if equipped) or foot rests and steps.
• Follow all safety, warning, and information signs and labels on the
machine.
Before machine operation
• The operator must sit in the seat, fasten and adjust the seat belt, and
check if all mirrors (if equipped) are adjusted correctly before putting
the machine into operation.
• Inspect the seat belt for any damage. Replace worn or damaged
components.
• Always adjust the seat position before starting work. Do not change the
seat position during machine operation or machine travel.
• Make sure that all safety devices are properly installed and functional
before starting work.

• Make sure the brakes, all controls, and the signalling and lighting
systems are functional before machine operation, and also before
restarting after an interruption of work.
• Before putting the machine/attachment into operation (starting/
moving), make sure that no one in the immediate vicinity will be at risk.
Machine operation
• When entering and exiting the machine, face the machine and use
three points of contact with the handholds and steps.
• Start and operate the machine only when you are seated and you have
fastened your seat belt. Stop the engine before releasing the seat belt.
• During operation on slopes, move or work uphill or downhill. If traveling
across a slope cannot be avoided, bear in mind the tilting limit of the
machine and the ground conditions. Always keep the attachments or
work equipment close to the ground. Keeping the load low applies to all
movements on slope, up, down and across. When traveling or
operating on a slope, the load must be on the uphill side of the
machine.
• On sloping terrain, always adapt your travel speed to the prevailing
ground conditions.
• Never get on or off a moving machine, and do not jump off the
machine.
• The machine’s controls require practice before an operator becomes
familiar with their responses. Therefore, adjust travel speed to your
abilities and the surroundings.
• The machine may have selectable ground drive and loader controls.
Make sure to understand how the machine will operate with the
selected control pattern.
• Do not allow anyone underneath a raised load.
• Do not operate the machine before it has reached it‘s operating
temperature.
Mechanical integrity
• Take the necessary precautions to make sure the machine is used
only when in a safe and serviceable condition.
• Operate the machine only if all protective and safety-oriented devices
(rollover protection structure [ROPS], removable safety devices,
soundproofing elements, mufflers, etc.) are in place and fully
functional.
• Do not modify the ROPS or falling object protective structure (FOPS) in
any way unless instructed by the manufacturer. Unauthorized modifi-
cations such as welding, drilling, cutting, or adding attachments could
weaken the structure. If they become damaged or if a rollover occurs,
replace the ROPS or FOPS. Do not attempt to repair them.
• Check the machine for visible damage and defects. Report any
changes, including changes in the machine's function and response, to
your supervisor immediately.
• If the machine is functioning unpredictably or in event of malfunctions,
turn off the machine immediately, remove the starting key, lock the
front door (if equipped) and report the malfunction to a qualified
technician or supervisor. Safety-relevant damage or malfunctions of
the machine must be repaired immediately.
