Noise and Vibrations The values given in this operating manual were recorded during a test cycle carried out on an identical machine. They are valid for a machine equipped with standard equipment. The values recorded are given in the technical data. Noise emissions have been established according to the ISO4871 standard for the determination of the sound pressure level on the basis of Directive 200/14 / EC, Annex VI. However, the values given for noise emissions are not applicable for the determination of noise emissions at the workplace. Noises whose sound level exceeds 85 db (A) can cause hearing damage. Over a sound level of 80 db (A), the use of an ear protection is recommended. From a sound level of 85 db (A), the operator must imperatively wear an ear protection. The vibrations of the machine were found on an identical machine. The exposure of the operator to vibrations during a prolonged period must be evaluated by the operator at the workplace in accordance with Directive 2002/44 / EC, so that individual factors are taken into account. Hydraulic Danger If oil is spilled into the eyes, rinse immediately with pure water, then consult a doctor immediately. Skin and clothing should not come into contact with hydraulic oil. The parts of the skin that come in contact with the hydraulic oil should be - if possible - immediately washed thoroughly and several times with soap and water, otherwise the oil could irritate the skin and cause dermatosis. In case of spillage or spillage of hydraulic oil on clothing, change immediately. If someone has inhaled hydraulic oil vapors (fog), take them to the doctor immediately. If the hydraulic system leaks, do not start the backhoe or stop it immediately. Page 11 sur 21

12 Do not look for oil leaks with bare hands, but always use a piece of wood or cardboard. For leak detection, wear protective clothing (goggles and gloves). Hazardous area Definition: The hazardous area concept identifies locations where people may be at risk. In the case of the AX Backhoe, the danger could arise from the swinging movement of the arm, the projection of substances should be taken into account, as well as the space it would require when it is straight. Also, the height of the straight arm is a potential hazard. Maximum machine height Machine width Total arm length Machine length with arm fully extended Digging depth 2.65 metres 1.20 metre 2.95 metres 3.32 metres 1.93 metre The security zone to respect is therefore : 5 metres around the axle of the machine, 3,50 metres above from the base of the machine.
