2 Product Liability
A risk of electric shock must be considered while working with the machinery when:
• Connecting or disconnecting the electric power supply to and between machines. To
avoid electric shock:
– Turn off the power supply before plugging the connectors in or out.
– Avoid water around the cables.
• Cleaning and doing maintenance procedures around electrical cabinets, connectors,
and cables.
– Only authorized personnel can work with cables, electrical cabinets, and con-
nectors.
– Do not use high pressure to clean electrical components.
Crushing Hazard
The movable parts of the boom system can cause a risk of being crushed.
To minimize risk:
• Keep away from the hazard zone during operation.
Scalding Hazard
High noise level from the machine can permanently impair hearing.
To minimize risk:
• Use approved hearing protection.
The boom which falls diagonally during service work or breakdown can cause personal in-
jury or property damage.
To minimize risk:
• Secure boom using straps or supports during service work.
Tipping Hazard
When tramming, injuries and damage to machine could occur due to tipping.
To minimize risk:
• Retract the boom to the maximum level and position other units straight forward with-
out being swung out.
Tipping Hazard
Tipping risk during drilling can cause severe injuries and property damage
To minimize risk:
• Extend the jacks to a maximum during machine operation.
• Keep the jacks in contact with ground and completely relieve the weight on the wheels.
4 Safety Precautions
For some applications, sound pressure levels can be high even with hearing protection.
• Always use protective safety glasses when using a hammer, as chips or debris can
cause eye injury.
• Use a hammer with a soft face when driving hardened pins.
• Use a respirator in dusty conditions.
• Make sure that compressed air for cleaning the machine does not exceed 2 bar (30
psi).
• Wear a protective face shield and clothing when cleaning with compressed air.
• Stay clear from the exhaust cleaning unit and the exhaust pipes on exhaust openings.
High temperature gases escape from the unit.
WARNING
Risk of Short Circuit or Fire
Can cause serious injuries or death.
Can cause material damage.
u Make sure that you use a cable with sufficient area for the current ambient temperature
and power output of the machine.
u Make sure that the cable is intact before using the machine. Replace the cable in the
event of damage, discoloration, or deformation.
u Make sure that the cable is routed on the tunnel floor so that it is protected from being
driven over by other mobile machines.
u Unwind the whole cable for intensive operation.
u Make sure that the cable does not overheat during intensive use of the machine.
For intensive operation with short intervals for cooling down, there is a risk of the cable
overheating. For instance, during long drilling cycles with a short time between the cycles.
Many external factors affect the ability of the cable to cool down. For example:
• The number of layers on the reel.
• The ambient temperature.
• The air exchange.
• The dirt accumulation.
Therefore, make a habit of always unreeling the entire length of the cable during operation.
5 Safety Functions
NOTICE
Machine Damage
Incorrect use of emergency stops can cause technical problems or damage to the ma-
chine and related equipment.
u Only use emergency stops in hazardous situations, or when a hazardous situation is
likely to arise.
• When the emergency stop is pressed, power to the machine is disconnected and the
diesel engine stops. The machine is de-energized.
• The emergency stop must be reset after being activated.
! NOTE: Reset the emergency stop only if it is safe to start the machine or resume work.
2. Turn the main switch in the electric cabinet to '0' and then to '1'.
3. Press the lamp test button in the electric cabinet to verify that the indicator lamps
are working correctly.
NOTE: Disable the automatic fire suppression system when steam-cleaning, hi-pres-
! sure washing, welding, battery charging and starting with auxiliary battery.
To disconnect the automatic fire suppression system, remove fuse FSB1 located near the
24-V battery. Check all electrical functions when work is done.
To disconnect the automatic fire suppression system, remove fuse FSB1 located near the
battery. Check all electrical functions when work is done.
The automatic fire suppression system suppresses fire over the following areas:
B Ansul nozzles
Classification of Fires
C Gas fires
1. Use a handheld fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire. Follow the manufacturer's in-
structions.
2. Do the following steps only if this does not jeopardize your safety:
a. Turn off the main power switch and the battery isolation switch, or whichever is
present on the machine.
NOTE: Do not restart the machine until the cause of the fire
! has been established and faults have been corrected.
Activating the automatic fire suppression system activates the emergency stop.
Precondition p Parking brake is applied.
1. To activate the automatic fire suppression system, pull the pin (A) and push the ac-
tivating device (B).
è The emergency stop is activated and the power to the machine is cut.
2. Perform the following steps only if this does not jeopardize safety.
a. Extinguish the fire using a handheld fire extinguisher, if necessary, as per the
manufacturer instructions.
b. Turn off the main power switch and battery isolation switch, or whichever is
present on the machine.
NOTE: Do not restart the machine until the cause of fire has
! been established and faults have been corrected.
3. Replace the used fire extinguishers with approved new extinguishers and inspect
the automatic fire suppression system.
5.3 FOPS
The machine has a Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS). FOPS provides the opera-
tor with protection from falling objects.
• If the FOPS construction is damaged, contact Epiroc local customer center before
starting any repairs.
• Do not modify the FOPS construction.
• Modifications such as welding, drill hole cutting, or installation of tools on the FOPS
structure weaken the structure and render the FOPS certification invalid, and reduce
the protection.
The machine contains a data plate that shows that the machine is equipped with FOPS.
The FOPS data plate is on the carrier unit of the operator seat.
6 Warning Signals
The warning beacon flashes when the ignition is turned on to indicate machine movement.
NOTE: Indicated values in the manual are valid only for the intended use of the ma-
! chine.
A-weighted sound power, LWAd (reference 1 pW) in decibels (declaration for 128
single values)
Weighted whole-body vibration value [m/s2], seated (dual-number declara- 0.1 ± 0.15
tion).
Weighted whole-body vibration value [m/s2], standing (dual-number declara- 0.1 ± 0.15
tion).
Hand and arm vibration is less than 2.5 m/s2during the intended use.
The values were determined in accordance with the sound test code in EN 791 based on
the basic standards ISO 3747, ISO 11201 and ISO 11203 (at one meter distance, free
field, remote control, service) and ISO 2631-1.
Dual Number: When combined, the declared noise emission values are the sum of mea-
sured values and uncertainty. They represent an upper limit of the range, in which mea-
sured values are likely to be included.
Single Values: The sum of a measured value and of the associated uncertainty represents
an upper limit of the range, in which measured values are likely to be included.

9 Stability
The angles that are specified for the different work operations correspond with the inclina-
tions at which Epiroc stipulates the machine should not tip over.
• While tramming at normal speeds, the maximum machine inclination in the tramming
direction is ± 14° with a camber of ± 5º.
• Booms, feeders, and any other positioning units must be retracted, aligned with the
line of symmetry of the machine, and positioned in tramming position.
NOTE: In the event of sudden boom movements, one of the wheels can lift from the
! ground, even within the specified stability angles.
• While tramming at speeds below 1 km/h, the maximum machine inclination in the tram-
ming direction is ± 14° with camber of ± 0°.
• When adjusting booms, feeds, and other positioning units around tight turns, the units
must be fully retracted and only be swung out within the turning radius of the machine.
See the dimension drawing for the stability limitations and the correct positioning of the units.
• The maximum longitudinal inclination for a stationary machine with parking brakes ap-
plied is ± 14° with a camber of ± 0°.
• Booms, feeds, and any other positioning units must be retracted and can then be
swung out to the maximum.
• The maximum longitudinal inclination for a machine in working position is ± 14° with a
camber of ± 0°.
• Working position means that the machine is supported on its jacks. If the jacks are ex-
tendable laterally, they must be maximum extended.
10 Environmental Protection
NOTE: Observe the local risk analysis for the local worksite.
! NOTE: Obey local regulations concerning the use and maintenance of machinery.
• Make sure that operators and maintenance personnel are adequately trained.
• Use biologically-degradable hydraulic fluids and lubricants when refilling the systems
for machine operation. Contact Epiroc for more information. See https://
www.epiroc.com
• Avoid prolonged idling and switch off the engine when not required.
• Use automatic speed control, if available.
