cavator in a dry place or on wooden planks or mats if
this is not possible. If the excavator is stored on damp
or muddy ground, the crawlers may freeze overnight.
Then the excavator cannot be put into operation.
In addition, the piston rods of the hydraulic cylinders
must be rubbed dry. Otherwise, serious damage may
occur if dirty water penetrates the seals.

15. Cleaning

Danger!
Pull out the battery before carrying out any cleaning work.
• Keep protective devices, air vents and the motor
housing as free of dust and dirt as possible. Rub
the product clean with a clean cloth or blow it off
with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the product directly
after every use.
• Clean the product at regular intervals using a damp
cloth and a little soft soap. Do not use any cleaning
products or solvents; they could attack the plastic
parts of the product. Make sure that no water can
penetrate the interior of the product. Water pene-
tration increases the risk of an electric shock.

16. Transport

1. Observe all regulations regarding the transport of
excavators on public roads.
2. Use sufficiently long and stable ramps when load-
ing onto a lorry. (For details, see "TRANSPORT-
ING THE EXCAVATOR ON A LORRY".) The ma-
chine can also be lifted onto the lorry. (For details,
see "IFTING THE EXCAVATOR".)
3. Do not change the direction of travel and prevent
yourself from overturning. Therefore, do not attempt
to swivel the attachment across the loading ramps.
4. Swivel the uppercarriage to the rear of the lorry
and attach the swivelling locking pin. Lower the
attachment onto the loading surface, release the
pressure from the hydraulic system and secure
the boom with the lever. Block the crawlers with
blocks and tie down the excavator. After loading
the excavator, lash the chassis of the excavator to
the lorry with a strong steel cable.

5. Do not brake abruptly when the excavator is load-
ed. Fatal accidents could occur.
16.1 Transporting the excavator on a lorry
Danger!
Do not change direction when the excavator is on
the ramp. If a change of direction is required, drive

Danger!
If driving forwards or backwards onto the lorry or if
you swivel the uppercarriage, make sure that neither
the cab nor the side walls of the lorry are damaged.
Danger!
When the excavator reaches the point between
the ramps and the loading surface of the lorry,
stop and drive very slowly until the excavator is
in a horizontal position.
Danger!
Only move the excavator onto the lorry with the
arm fully retracted. Otherwise, the cab of the lor-
ry could be damaged if the uppercarriage is swiv-
elled around.
