While guiding the machine, guides shall not be given other jobs which may distract them from their task.
2.11 Danger of falling objects
Earth-moving machines are only to be used where there is a danger of falling objects when the operator’s stand has a canopy (FOPS). A front guard must be employed if there is a risk of materials breaking into the cab.
In front of walls e.g. of stacked materials, earth-moving machines must be positioned and operated in such a way that the driver's seat and entry to the driver's seat are not situated on the side facing the wall.
Demolition work is only to be performed by earth-moving machines where there is no danger to persons and if the machine is equipped with canopy, cab-mounted front guard and the appropriate work implement.
See regulations book "Demolition work" (ZH 1/614) published by the Tiefbau-Berufsgenossenschaft (the employer’s liability insurance association).
2.12 Working in the vicinity of underground power lines
Before commencing excavating work using earth-moving machines, it must be determined whether any underground power lines are present in the intended working zone which may present a danger to persons.
If underground power lines are present, their exact position and course must be determined in consultation with the proprietor or operator of the lines, and the necessary safety precautions decided and implemented.
The course of power lines in the work area must be clearly marked, under supervision, before commencing any excavation work. If the position of lines cannot be determined, search ditches must be dug - manually, if need be.
If underground power lines are encountered unexpectedly or they or their protective covers are damaged, the machine operator must discontinue work immediately and notify the supervisor.
Safety and Prevention of Accidents 2
TC29 11
2.13 Working in the vicinity of overhead power lines
When the earth-moving machine is being used in the vicinity of overhead power lines and trolley wires, a safety distance which varies depending upon the nominal voltage of the overhead line must be maintained between the lines and the earth-moving machine and its work equipment, in order to prevent current overspill. This also applies to the distance between these lines and attached implements or loads.
The safety distances specified below must be complied with:
Nominal voltage in Volt
Safety distance in meters
- 1,000 V 1.0 m
over 1 kV - 110 kV 3.0 m
over 110 kV - 220 kV 4.0 m
over 220 kV - 380 kV 5.0 m
nom. voltage unknown 5.0 m
In the observation of safety distances, all working movements of earth-moving machines, e.g. positions of the work equipment and the dimensions of attached loads must be taken into consideration. Uneven ground which would cause the earth-moving machine to be inclined and thus nearer to overhead lines must also be taken into account.
During work in windy conditions, both overhead lines and work equipment may swing out, thus reducing the safety distance.
If it is impossible to maintain sufficient distance from overhead power lines and trolley wires, the plant operator must consult with the proprietor or operator of the overhead lines to find other safety precautions to prevent current overspill. Such measures could be e.g.
• Switching off the current
• Re-routing the overhead line
• Cabling, or
• Limiting the work zone of earth-moving machines
2.14 Operation in closed rooms
If earth-moving machines are to be used in closed rooms, these areas must be sufficiently ventilated and special regulations observed.
2.15 Work stoppages
Before rest periods and at the end of the working day, the driver of the earth-moving machine must park the machine on ground which has sufficient carrying capacity and is as level as possible, and must secure it against unintended movement.
Before rest periods and at the end of the working day, the driver must lower the work equipment onto the ground or secure it so that it cannot move about.
The driver is not to leave the earth-moving machine when the work equipment has not been lowered to the ground or secured.
Earth-moving machines are only to be parked in places where they do not present an obstacle, e.g. on the construction site or to plant traffic. Warning devices, e.g. triangles, warning cordons, flashing or hazard lights are to be used if necessary.
Before leaving the operator stand, the driver must bring all operating equipment into home position, switch off the working hydraulics and apply the brakes.
If the driver is leaving the earth-moving machine unattended, he must first turn off the drive motors and ensure that they cannot be started up by unauthorized persons (e.g. removing ignition keys).
2 Safety and Prevention of Accidents
TC29 12
2.16 Load hook applications
Load hook applications are the hoisting, transporting and lowering of loads with the aid of a fixing device (rope, chain, etc.), whereby the assistance of personnel is required to attach and release the load. Such work covers e.g. the lifting and lowering of pipes, tubbing rings or containers using earth-moving machines.
Earth-moving machines are only to be used for load hook applications when the prescribed safety devices are present and in full working order. For earth-moving machines, these are:
• Secure attachment of loading implements
• Table of carrying capacity
• Overload warning device *
• Hose-rupture valve in boom cylinder *
* only if the permissible carrying capacity exceeds 1,000 kg
Loads must be attached in such a way that they cannot slip or fall out.
Personnel guiding the machine and attaching loads shall always remain in the machine operator’s field of sight.
The machine operator must carry loads as close to the ground as possible and prevent them from swinging.
Earth-moving machines are only to travel with an attached load if the path of travel is fairly level.
When earth-moving machines are used for load hook applications, personnel attaching loads is only to approach the boom from the side and with the machine operator’s permission. The machine operator is only to give his permission if the earth-moving machine is standing still and the work equipment is not in motion.
Do not use fixing devices (ropes, chains, shackles) which are damaged or of inadequate dimensions. Protective gloves must always be worn when working with fixing devices.
2.17 Change of work attachments, maintenance, repair
Earth-moving machines are only to be converted, maintained or serviced under the guidance of a suitable person designated by the plant operator and following the manufacturer’s operating instructions.
After every change of work attachments, the driver must convince himself that the quick-mount hitch is correctly fastened and locked.
Work on e.g.
• braking
• steering
• hydraulic and
• electric systems
of the machine is only to be carried out by expert personnel specially trained in these areas.
Stability must be ensured during all type of work on the machine at all times.
Whenever performing work on and especially under the machine, the machine must be suitably secured by chocks so that it cannot roll away.
The work equipment must be secured against movement by lowering it to the ground or equivalent measures, e.g. cylinder supports, trestles. With the engine running, the unprotected operating envelope of the machine shall not be entered.
When jacking up earth-moving machines, jacking devices must be positioned so that they cannot slip. Jacks must be positioned and applied absolutely straight, without tilting.
Raised earth-moving machines must be supported by suitable structures such as crosswise stacks of planks, square timbers or steel trusses.
Earth-moving machines which are raised with work equipment must be stabilized by a supporting structure immediately after lifting. Work under raised machines which are only supported by their hydraulics is forbidden.

TC29 13
The engine/motor(s) must be turned off prior to all maintenance and repair work. These requirements are only to be ignored in the case of maintenance or repair work which cannot be performed without the engine/motor(s) running.
When performing maintenance and repair work on the hydraulic system, the hydraulic system must be relieved of pressure. With the engine turned off, lower the work equipment to the ground and actuate all hydraulic control levers until there is no pressure in the hydraulic system.
Before working on the electrics or when performing arc-welding on the machine, the connection to the battery must be interrupted.
When disconnecting the battery, first the negative pole then the positive pole must be disconnected. The battery must be re-connected in reverse order.
During repair work around the battery, the battery must be covered with insulating material. Tools should never be placed on or near the battery.
Protective devices of moving machine parts are only to be opened or removed when the drive has been switched off and cannot be switched on again by unauthorized persons. Protective devices are e.g. engine/motor covers, doors, protective grating, trim.
Upon completion of assembly, maintenance or repair work, all protective devices must once more be attached in the proper manner.
Load-bearing parts of earth-moving machines are only to be welded following consultation with the manufacturer and in accordance with recognized welding principles.
Protective structures (TOPS, ROPS; FOPS) are not to be welded or drilled in any way.
Alterations, such as welding of the hydraulic system, are only to be undertaken with the manufacturer’s permission.
Before commencing work on the hydraulic system, the operating pressure, pilot pressure, back pressure and pressure inside the tank must be let off.
Swallowing lubricants as well as long and repeated skin contact can be hazardous to health and should therefore be avoided. When used properly, there is no particular danger to health. The safety specification sheets from the mineral companies must be observed.
Only the hoses specified by the manufacturer may be used.
Hydraulic hoses must be routed and assembled by expert personnel.
In the vicinity of fuel or batteries, smoking and naked flames are prohibited.
2.18 Recovery, loading, transportation
Earth-moving machines are only to be loaded onto recovery vehicles when adequate towing vehicles are used.
The tow fixing points specified by the manufacturer must be employed.
For loading and transportation, earth-moving machines and all necessary auxiliary equipment must be secured against unwanted movement.
The travelling gear and crawler unit of earth-moving machines must be sufficiently cleaned of mud, snow and ice to ensure that ramps can be driven up without risk of slipping.
When transporting the earth-moving machine on trucks, flatbed trailers, or by rail, it must be sufficiently secured with chocks and by attachment to the lashing points.
Before setting off, the route to be taken must be examined to determine whether the roads are wide enough, entrances and passages under bridges are large enough and that roads and bridges have sufficient carrying capacity.
2 Safety and Prevention of Accidents
TC29 14
2.19 Monitoring and inspections
The machine must be submitted to a general inspection according to the existing UVV-regulations (Accident Prevention Regulations). This inspection must be carried out by an expert (e.g. machine engineer or machine foreman):
• before the machine is put into operation for the first time and before the machine is again put into operation when essential modifications have been made
• at least once a year
• in the meantime, according to operating conditions and local environments
The results of this inspection have to be recorded in writing and this record has to be kept until the next inspection takes place.
Prior to every work shift, the machine operator must check the earth-moving machine according to the inspection and maintenance plan.
Hydraulic hoses must be replaced as soon as the following damage is recognized:
• Damage to the outer layer which reaches the intermediate layer
• Embrittled patches on the outer layer
• Deformations when under pressure or without pressure which differ from the original shape of the installed hose
• Leaks
• Damage to hose fittings or to the connection between the fitting and the hose
The coolant level shall only be checked after the engine has cooled down; the cap must be turned carefully in order to let off excess pressure.
Prior to operations, the machine operator must check the function of the safety devices.
The machine operator must advise the supervisor immediately - and his replacement, if there is a change of operator - with regard to any shortcomings.
In the event of shortcomings which jeopardize the operating safety of the earth-moving machine, it shall not be used until these have been eliminated.
2.20 Fire protection
• Before refueling the tank of the machine, the engine must be stopped. Exercise special caution as long as the engine is hot.
• Never smoke or handle open flames whilst refueling the tank of the machine.
The fire extinguisher must be kept in the cab. The fire extinguisher symbol must be attached.
2.21 Emergency exit
The right-hand cab door acts as an emergency exit.
2.22 Other dangers
Failure of the hydraulic system
If the hydraulic system fails because the diesel engine is not running, the hydraulic pump is damaged or hydraulic oil has been lost, only the EMERGENCY function lower work equipment can be performed.

4.2.1 Starting the engine
Before placing the machine into operation, the inspections outlined in Chapter 7.7 must be carried out each time.
Before starting the engine, take care to ensure that no one is in the immediate vicinity of the machine or in the danger zone.
• All gearshift levers to neutral.
• Insert ignition key in pre-heat/starter switch (11/34).
• Turn clockwise to "1"; indicator lamps (11/18, 11/20) light up.
• Pre-heating starts; control light (11/19) lights up.
In the event of a cold start, the throttle handle must be fully open. Reduce the throttle when the engine is running smoothly!
• After the control light (11/19) has gone out, turn the pre-heat/starter switch to "2". As soon as the engine is running, turn the ignition key to "1" and decrease the revs to low idle speed. Control lights must go out.
• If the engine has not started after max. 30 sec., turn the ignition key to "1" or "O", and wait for at least 1 minute before trying again. Repeat the start-up procedure.
• If the engine has not started after 2 start-up procedures, determine the source of the fault.
Do not drive the engine at full throttle straight away. Drive with restraint until the operating temperature of the engine has been reached.

4.7 Rubber crawler chains
This crawler excavator can be equipped with steel crawler or rubber crawler chains.
When equipped with a rubber crawler chain, work on paved roads, within buildings, etc. can be performed without damaging the road ways.
When using rubber crawler chains, the following points have to be observed:
• The rubber crawler chain must have the correct tension. Incorrect crawler chain tension is detrimental to travel performance and adds to the wear of the crawler chain.
• Do not drive or turn over sharp edges or stairs as so the crawler is stressed only on special points (A) and fissuring or cracking of the rubber and the steel insert may occur.
• Also prevent stones and other substances from getting into the crawler as they may cause the crawler to be extended or damaged.
• Do not undertake any sharp turns on surfaces with a high friction resistance such as rough concrete.
• Avoid that the rubber crawler is contaminated by fuel or oil. If this has occurred, immediately clean the crawler.
• When working on salt water beaches, the rubber crawlers must be thoroughly cleaned every day using clean water. The steel insert in the rubber crawlers may be damaged due to corrosion.

7 Care and Maintenance
7.1 General notes
The good operating condition and life expectancy of machines are largely influenced by care and maintenance.
For this reason, it is in every machine owner’s interest to perform the specified maintenance work and comply with the service intervals. This Section deals in detail with periodic maintenance, inspection and lubricating tasks.
The type-specific maintenance and inspection plan lists all work to be performed on the machine at regular intervals. Maintenance and inspection plans for this purpose are contained in every instruction book.
It is essential that the recommendations in Chapter 2, "Safety and Prevention of Accidents" are observed.
7.2 Intervals
First inspection once before first putting into operation Chapter 7.8.1
Daily jobs every 10 op. h* or every work shift 1) Chapter 7.8.2
Weekly jobs weekly or after 50 op. h* 1) Chapter 7.8.2
100 operating hours once after first putting into operation 2) Chapter 7.8.4
Every 500 operating hours after every 500 operating hours Chapter 7.8.4
Every 1000 operating hours after every 1000 operating hours Chapter 7.8.4
1) whichever comes first 2) also applicable when new or overhauled diesel engines are put into operation
7 Care and Maintenance
TC29 52
7.3 Regular oil analyses
Oil analyses are not intended as a substitute for the oil change intervals but – apart from a possible reduction of maintenance costs and as a form of preventive maintenance – they take into account the increasing environmental awareness.
Advantages of an oil analysis
• Extension of the oil change intervals under standard or light-duty operating conditions.
• Minimum wear of high-quality components with optimum use of the lubricants.
• Periodic laboratory analyses enable an early detection of imminent damage.
• Repairs performed before they actually become absolutely necessary help prevent serious and unexpected damage.
• Sequential damage can be avoided.
Oil analysis intervals
Periodic oil analyses reveal trends in the condition of the oil and the machine.
When the scheduled oil change intervals have been reached, the oils should be analyzed in the following intervals to check their quality and thus extend the oil change intervals:
• Hydraulic oil: 1,000 operating hours
• Transmission oil: 500 operating hours
• Engine oil: 100 operating hours
Based on the first results, the laboratory recommends the interval for the next sampling.
Ask your Terex dealer for an information booklet detailing the scope and procedures of the oil analysis.
7.4 Warranty
During the warranty period thorough inspections are stipulated, which must be carried out by trained specialist dealer personnel.
The inspections are obligatory and must be paid for.
The performance of inspections as specified must be confirmed on the inspection cards in the warranty / handing over certificate.
If they are omitted, the warranty may be subject to restrictions.
Care and Maintenance 7
TC29 53
7.5 Inspection parts and aids
Maintenance and wearing parts for inspection should be ordered well in advance! Contact your dealer!
Lubricants
• The machine’s life expectancy and operating condition are largely dependent upon the use of the specified lubricants and compliance with the service intervals.
• If lubricants which do not conform to our recommendations are used, consequential damage may occur for which we will not assume liability, even inside the warranty period.
• For lubricant specifications see "Technical Data", Chapter 3.6.2.
7 Care and Maintenance
TC29 54
7.6 Care and cleaning
The machine must be cleaned on a suitable surface with an oil separator.
• Neither a steam-jet appliance nor a high-pressure cleaning apparatus may be used for cleaning during the first two months after the machine is used for the first time or when newly painted to ensure that the paint can sufficiently harden.
• Do not use aggressive detergents for cleaning the machine. We recommend using commercially available cleaning agents for passenger cars.
• When cleaning with a steam-jet appliance, the hot water jet should not exceed 80°C and a spray pressure of 70 bar.
• Linings (insulating materials, etc.) shall not be exposed directly to water, steam or high-pressure jets.
• When cleaning with water or steam jets, take care not to spray exhaust-gas and air filter openings.
• If cleaning the engine with water or steam jets, do not expose sensitive engine parts, such as generator, cabling, oil pressure switch, etc. directly to the jet.
• After each wet clean, the machine must be lubricated in accordance with the lubricating plan and a test of all work cycles, support and driving functions carried out.
7.7 Notes for winter operation
The following points - and the relevant notes in the engine instruction book - should be observed during winter operation.
Hydraulic oil
• If the machine is not used for longer periods at temperatures around and below freezing, warm up the engine by running at medium revs (for approx. 3-5 min).
Engine oil
• The oil viscosity (SAE class) should be selected according to the ambient temperature at the machine’s place of operation.
Coolant
• Before the beginning of the cold season, check the level of antifreeze and adjust in line with the ambient temperature if necessary.
• At the factory, the antifreeze protection is set to approx. -40°C.
Battery charge
• A good cold start performance requires a well-charged battery. By warming the battery to approx. +20°C (remove the battery after the engine has been turned off and store it in a warm room), the minimum starting temperatures can be lowered by 4-5°C.
• When installing the battery, ensure good contact of terminal connections.
• Only tighten terminal screws so that they are "hand-tight", to prevent deformation of the terminal cones!
Fuel
• Only use commercially available brand-name diesel fuel with a sulfur content of less than 0.5 %.
• Use only winter diesel fuel in winter, in order to prevent cables becoming blocked through paraffin deposits. At very low temperatures, troublesome deposits may also occur when winter diesel is used.
