2.12 Lifting operations<br />
Under the term “lifting operations” is understood the lifting, transporting and lowering of secured loads,<br />
whereby assistance is required for fastening and loosening the load. Included is also the extraction<br />
and lowering of pipes, shaft collars etc. It must be ensured that no one stands underneath the load<br />
or operating attachment. The operator is not to swing the load over nearby persons. Loads must be<br />
fastened that they cannot slip or fall off. Assistants must always stay within the operator’s vision. The<br />
operator should move loads as near the ground as possible and avoid swinging the load. When using<br />
the excavator for lifting and pipelaying operations, the pipe laying operator should approach the boom<br />
only from the side and only with the operator’s permission to be given only when the machine and boom<br />
are no longer in motion.<br />
2.13 Servicing, maintenance<br />
Before all servicing and maintenance operations, and when refuelling, engine is to be switched off.<br />
When working on the electrical system or when conducting welding operations, the battery should be<br />
disconnected in order not to damage the alternator and to avoid accidental start of operation. On MENZI<br />
MUCK with electric motor, all electrical devices and all connections should be switched off and protected<br />
against accidental and nonauthorised operation. Exceptions to these rules are those servicing and<br />
maintenance operations which require a running motor.<br />
2.14 Protective guards<br />
Protective guards on moving parts may only be opened or removed when the motor is switched off and<br />
protected against accidental and nonauthorised operation. After completing assembly, servicing or<br />
maintenance work, replace all protective guards.<br />
2.15 Valves, hydraulic hoses<br />
The rated pressures on the MENZI MUCK safety and control valves may not be adjusted without the<br />
manufacturer’s permission. As soon as damage or leakage of the hydraulic hoses has been diagnosed,<br />
they are to be replaced. Only hydraulic hoses recommended by the manufacturer are to be used.<br />
2.16 Starting operation<br />
Before operating the machine, check the oil levels, diesel engine and cooling water, hydraulic<br />
oil, swing transmission. For the mobile version check wheel hub transmission. Check also<br />
cooling water of diesel engine.<br />
Before starting the Menzi Muck ensure persons are clear.<br />
1. Insert ignition key and turn to Position 1. Now display unit must be initialised.<br />
2. See chapter 6.3 for preheating<br />
3. Turn ignition key to Position 3 and start engine. Release ignition key as soon as engine starts up.<br />
Attempt starting continuously for a maximum of 10 seconds. Wait for approximately 12 minutes<br />
between each starting attempt to enable the battery to recover.<br />
4. The warning indicators may not appear when the engine is running. Refer to the operating manual<br />
of the engine manufacturer in case of faults and when starting in winter.<br />
