" Risk of electrocution or severe burns due to a short circuit. Before carrying out any repairs or maintenance operations
in general to the machine or to the battery, the battery terminals must be removed. Never use current from the battery
by using pliers, grips or any other type of improvised contact.
" Risks of severe burns and intoxication of the breathing apparatus while filling the battery elements with sulphuric acid
solution in the case of a new dry battery. To carry out this operation the following protections are necessary: heavy
duty gloves, glasses and breathing mask. The sulphuric acid solution must be stopped out of the reach of children and
in the case of contact with the eyes, rinse thoroughly and consult a doctor.
" Risks of severe burns and intoxication of the breathing apparatus due
necessary for certain maintenance interventions, the machine is tilted without first having removed the batteries.
" Risks of explosion in the vicinity of naked flames or sparks.
" Risks of explosion, fire and lesions while recharging the battery. To reduce these risks of this nature to a minimum,
follow the indications below:
IMPORTANT: Use a battery charger suitable to the capacity and features of the battery:
" for the 12V 110 - 140Ah tubular or flat plate battery, use an automatic electronic 12V 20A model fitted with an SB50
connector.
" for the 6V 240Ah tubular or flat plate batteries (2 units connected in serial), use an automatic electronic 12V 40A
model fitted with an SB50 connector.
" Before starting the operation of recharging the battery, make sure that the room is well ventilated, or recharge it in a
room specially fitted out for this purpose.
" Do not smoke or go near a naked flame or any other apparatus that can produce sparks.
" Make sure that all the connections (wiring terminals, plugs, sockets etc.) are tigh fitting and efficient.
" Do not rest tools or metallic objects on top of the batteries.
" Avoid overloads and keep the temperature of the batteries below 45-50° C.
" Top up with distilled water whenever the level of the electrolyte goes below 5-10 mm from the splash guard.
" Keep any centralised filling systems clean and efficient.
" Do not move the machine manually or start it up for any reason while recharging the battery.

SPECIFIC CHECKS FOR MODELS WITH ENDOTHERMIC ENGINES
SPECIFIC CHECKS FOR MODELS WITH ENDOTHERMIC ENGINES
Carefully read use and maintenance handbook for the motor, enclosed with the documentation supplied with the
machine.
Check the oil level of the engine and top up if necessary (wear nitril safety gloves throughout the operation). For
type of oil and amount, see indications in the handbook for the engine.
Fill up with petrol (with the engine off and cold, and using the type of fuel recommended by the manufacturer of
the engine - see engine user handbook). The container used for storing the petrol must be suitable for this
purpose and perfectly clean so as to avoid damage to the petrol filter caused by impurities. Use a petrol
container of a capacity in proportion to the amount consumed, so that in a period of 2 - 3 months the fuel is
all used in this way it will always be fresh.

SPECIFIC CHECK FOR MACHINES POWERED BY BATTERY SPECIFIC CHECK FOR MACHINES POWERED BY BATTERY
Check if the battery contains the sulphuric acid solution and if it is charged.
If not, proceed as follows:
Carefully read the chapter "Safety rules and regulations", which specifies the risks involved with filling the
Acquire the following instruments and personal protections: Safety glasses, protective gloves, 1 pair of scissors,
" Use the scissors to cut off the end of the plastic container holding the sulphuric acid solution and pour it into the
transfer container.
" Remove the cap to the chambers of the battery elements.
" With the aid of the funnel, pour in the solution until it reaches the level shown on the outside of the battery.
" Wait at least 12 hours leaving the battery inactive and then, if necessary, top up the solution bringing the levels, of the
various elements to the same conditions.
