2.2 Machine Description and Intended Use

Description

The Wacker Neuson skid steer and compact track loaders are self-

propelled work machines.

These machines are versatile and powerful helpers for moving earth,

gravel, and debris on construction sites and elsewhere. A wide range of

attachments allow for numerous different applications of the machines in

various environments. When using these attachments, observe the legal

regulations of your country and equip the machine with all the safety

equipment required.

The main components of the machine are:

•Chassis

• Cab (standard equipment)

• Pressurized cab (optional) reducing the effect of the outside

environment (for example dust, odors, harsh temperatures)

• Water-cooled diesel engine

• Hydraulic and electrical systems

• Radial loader lift arms or vertical loader lift arms (depending on model

)

Intended use

• In accordance with this designated use, the machine may only be used

for moving earth, gravel, coarse gravel or ballast, and rubble. It may

also be operated with approved attachments for additional applica-

tions.

• No other applications are designated for the use of the machine.

Wacker Neuson will not be liable for damage resulting from use other

than mentioned above. The operator alone will bear the risk.

• Designated Use includes following the instructions set forth in the

Operator's Manual and following the maintenance schedule.

• Machine safety can be negatively affected by performing machine

modifications without proper authority and by using spare parts,

equipment, attachments, and optional equipment which have not been

approved by Wacker Neuson. Wacker Neuson will not be liable for

damage resulting from unapproved parts or unauthorized modifica-

tions.

Wacker Neuson shall not be liable for personal injury and/or damage to

property caused by failure to follow the safety instructions on labels and in

this Operator's Manual, or by not exercising due care when:

• Transporting the machine

• Operating the machine

• Servicing the machine and performing maintenance work

• Repairing the machine

2-18 wc_tx004256gb_FM10.fm

2

The machine shall not be used for transport jobs on public roads unless it

is in compliance with applicable regulations.

Using this machine for any other purpose than described above could

permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator or other

persons in the area. Machine damage caused by misuse is not covered

under warranty.

The following are some examples of misuse:

• Using the machine as a ladder, support, or work surface

• Using the machine to carry or transport passengers or equipment

• Using the machine to tow other machines

• Operating the machine outside of factory specifications

• Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings

found on the machine and in the Operator’s Manual

This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest

global safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate

hazards as far as practicable and to increase operator safety through

protective guards and labeling. However, some risks may remain even

after protective measures have been taken. They are called residual risks.

On this machine, residual risks may include exposure to:

• Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine

• Burns from hot hydraulic fluid

• Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques

• Fuel and its fumes

• Personal injury from improper lifting techniques

• Crushing hazards from improper operation (feet, legs, or arms

extending outside of the operator work station) and for other persons in

the work zone

To protect yourself and others, make sure you thoroughly read and

understand the safety information presented in this manual before

operating the machine.

WARNING

Improper operation of the machine can result in serious

injury or death. Before operating this machine, make sure

to:

► Read and understand the Operator’s Manual.

► Read and understand all labels on the machine.

► Have training in the safe and proper use of the machine.

► Follow all applicable laws and regulations that pertain to this

machine.

2.3 Safety Guidelines for Operating the Machine

Operator training

Before operating the machine:

• Read and understand the operating instructions contained in all

manuals delivered with the machine.

• Familiarize yourself with the location and proper use of all controls and

safety devices.

• Contact Wacker Neuson for additional training if necessary.

When operating this machine:

• Do not allow improperly trained people to operate the machine. People

operating the machine must be familiar with the potential risks and

hazards associated with it.

Operator training and knowledge

• Know the rules for the job site.

• Always keep this Operator's Manual and other manuals that

accompany the machine stored with the machine and available for use.

Immediately replace an incomplete or illegible Operator's Manual.

• Follow legal and other mandatory regulations relevant to accident

prevention and environmental protection. These may include handling

hazardous substances, issuing and/or wearing personal protective

equipment, or obeying traffic regulations.

• The operator/machine owner must regularly make sure that all persons

who operate or maintain the machine, are working in compliance with

the Operator's Manual and are aware of risks and safety factors of the

machine.

Operator qualifications

Only trained personnel are permitted to start, operate, and shut down the

machine. They also must meet the following qualifications:

• Have received instruction on how to properly use the machine

• Are familiar with required safety devices

The machine must not be accessed or operated by:

• Children

• People impaired by alcohol, drugs, or prescription drugs

Operator qualifications and requirements for safe operation

Among other things, safe machine operation depends on the following

points:

• Machine model and equipment

• Machine maintenance

• Work and travel speed

• Nature of ground and work environment

A well-trained operator following the Operator’s Manual and maintenance

plan ensures a long service life and durability of the machine.

Specific training enables the operator to acquire, among other things, the

following skills:

• Correct assessment of work situations

• Feeling for the machine’s operation

2-20 wc_tx004256gb_FM10.fm

2

• Recognition of possible risk situations

• Safe working by making the correct decisions for man, machine and

the environment

The operator and any people in the work area are at risk if the machine is

not operated correctly.

Follow the operating procedures and instructions described for the

machine.

Application area

Be aware of the application area.

• Keep unauthorized personnel, children, and pets away from the

machine.

• Remain aware of changing positions and the movement of other

equipment and personnel in the application area/job site.

• Remain aware of changing surface conditions and use extra care when

operating over uneven ground, on hills, or over soft or coarse material.

The machine could shift or slide unexpectedly.

• Use caution when operating the machine near the edges of pits,

trenches or platforms. Check to be sure that ground surface is stable

enough to support the weight of the machine with operator and that

there is no danger of the machine sliding, falling or tipping.

• Do not operate the machine in areas that contain flammable objects,

fuels, or products that produce flammable vapors.

• Keep the area around the muffler free of debris such as leaves, paper,

cartons, etc. A hot muffler could ignite the debris and start a fire.

• When operating the machine in contaminated areas, take appropriate

measures to protect the operator and the machine.

Dust precaution

Dust created by construction activities may cause silicosis or respiratory

harm. To reduce the risk of exposure:

• Work in a well ventilated area.

• Use a dust control system.

• Wear an approved dust/particle respirator.

Work area awareness

• Familiarize yourself with the surroundings and circumstances of the

work site before beginning work. Be aware of:

- Obstacles in the operating and traveling area

- Soil bearing capacity

- Any necessary barriers separating the work site from public roads

• Always keep at a safe distance from the edges of building pits and

slopes.

• Look out for the following when operating in buildings or in enclosed
