PREFACE:
- These operating instructions are designed to famil- iarize the operator with the machine and its
desig- nated use. - The operating instructions contain important in- formation on how to operate the machine
safely, properly and with maximum efficiency. Observing these instructions helps to
prevent hazardous situations, to reduce repair costs and downtimes and to increase the
reliability and service life of the machine. - The operating instructions must be supplemented by the respective national rules and
regulations for accident prevention and environmental protection. - The operating instructions must always be avail- able in the driver’s cab of the machine.
The operating instructions must be read and put into practice by any person in charge
of carrying out work with or on the machine, such as
▪ operation, including setting-up, troubleshoot- ing in the course of work, care,
evacuation of production waste and disposal of fuels and consumables,
▪ maintenance (inspection, servicing, repair) and / or
▪ transport.
- In addition to the operating instructions and the mandatory rules and regulations for
accident pre- vention and environmental protection in the user’s country and at the place where the
machine is to be used, the generally recognized technical rules for safe and proper working
must be observed ¹ - The operating instructions are directed to the min- ing-machine specialist. They cannot provide
basic know-how. This can be acquired, for example, in several days’ instruction by a
qualified Bucyrus HEX mechanic or by attending an Bucyrus HEX training course for
operators or maintenance per- sonnel. - The Bucyrus HEX after-sales service will be pleased to deal with any queries you
may have after reading through the operating instructions. - All Bucyrus HEX operating manuals are issued in German and then translated. Even a good transla-
tion may give rise to questions which Bucyrus HEX will be pleased to answer. - The operating instructions are not work instruc- tions for carrying out major repairs.
Such work is willingly done for you by the Bucyrus HEX after-
sales service.
