2.3 Protective gear
Work clothing
Clothing should be appropriate, i.e. should be close-fitting but not restrict your 
movement.
When on construction sites, do not wear long hair loosely, loose clothing or jew-
elry including rings. These objects can easily get caught or be drawn in by mov-
ing machine parts.
Only wear clothing made of material that is not easily flammable.
Personal protective gear
Wear personal protective gear to avoid injuries or health hazards:
 Non-skid, hard-toed shoes.
 Work gloves made of durable material.
 Overalls made of durable material.
 Hard hat.
 Ear protection.
Ear protection
This machine generates noise that exceeds the country-specific permissible 
noise levels (individual rating level). It may therefore be necessary to wear ear 
protection. You can find the exact value in the chapter Technical Data.
When wearing ear protection while working, you must pay attention and exercise 
caution because your hearing is limited, e.g. in case someone screams or a sig-
nal tone sounds.
Wacker Neuson recommends that you always wear ear protection.
2.4 Transport
Switching off the machine
Before you transport the machine, it must be switched off, and the engine must 
be given sufficient time to cool down.
Center pole in transport position
Before commencing transport, move the center pole to the transport position. Let 
the center pole latch into its lock.
Observing hazardous materials regulations
Observe the national safety guidelines and the hazardous materials regulations 
that apply to the respective means of transportation.
