WARNING
Crushing hazard due to tipping over of vehicle!
A tipping vehicle can cause serious injury or death.
► Raise the boom 20 – 30 cm (8 – 12 in) off the ground and position it straight ahead at the center of the machine.
► In an emergency, lower the boom immediately to increase stability.
► Travel on slopes only on firm and level ground.
► Adapt the travel speed to the prevailing conditions.
► Pay attention to persons and obstacles.
► Adhere to the application limits of the vehicle.
► Perform uphill and downhill machine travel only in speed range 1.
► Never reverse downhill.
► Ensure that no parts of the body protrude outside the vehicle.
► Do not exceed the permissible payloads.
► Do not turn or swivel the upper carriage and the boom during downhill or uphill vehicle operation with a full attachment.
► Diagonal machine travel is prohibited.
Stones and the humidity in the upper layer of the ground can affect vehicle traction and stability.
The vehicle can slip sideways on gravel or loose, rocky soil. The stability of the vehicle can be reduced on rough terrain.
On soft ground, the vehicle sinks into it or the tracks dig into it. This increases the vehicle angle (maximum gradient angle and maximum lateral angle of inclination), and the vehicle can tip over.
If the engine dies as you perform uphill or downhill vehicle travel, immediately put the control levers to neutral position and restart the engine.
Observe under all circumstances during uphill or downhill travel:
• Keep the drive levers near the neutral position.
• Perform slow and smooth travel movements.
• Avoid sudden travel movements.
• Reduce the engine speed.
The vehicle can slip even on gentle slopes if it travels across grass, leaves, humid metal surfaces, frozen ground or ice.

Important information regarding operation with biodegradable hydraulic oil
• Use only the biodegradable oils that have been tested and released by
Wacker Neuson.
• Add only biodegradable oil of the same type. In order to avoid misunderstandings, attach a clear label to the hydraulic oil filler neck providing clear information regarding the type of oil currently used. The joint use of two different biodegradable oils can affect the quality of one of the oil types. Therefore ensure that the remaining amount of biodegradable oil complies with the national and regional regulations as you replace it. Observe the manufacturer’s indications.
• Do not add mineral oil – the content of mineral oil should not exceed
2% of the system fill in order to avoid foaming problems and to ensure biological degradability.
• When running the vehicle with biodegradable oil, the same oil and filter replacement intervals are valid as for mineral oil.
• Always have the condensation water in the hydraulic oil reservoir drained by a Wacker Neuson service center before the cold season.
The water content may not exceed 0.1% by weight.
• The instructions in this Operator’s Manual concerning environmental protection are also valid for the use of biodegradable oil.
• Subsequent change from mineral oil to biodegradable oil may only be performed by a Wacker Neuson service center.

Maintenance 7
7.21 Exhaust gas treatment
The 403J-E17T engine is fitted with a diesel particulate filter.
The soot produced by burning diesel fuel is collected and burned in the diesel particulate filter at regular intervals. This process is called regeneration.
Regeneration takes about 40 minutes.
If the dirt in the diesel particulate filter reaches a critical value, engine power is reduced and vehicle operation has to be stopped.
Regeneration is performed only if the engine is at operating temperature.
WARNING
Health hazard due to exhaust gases!
Can cause serious health hazards or death.
► Do not inhale exhaust gases.
► Under pressure, the exhaust temperature can be up to
600°C (1112°F). Only use suitable exhaust-gas suction systems.
► Provide for sufficient ventilation when operating in enclosed areas.
WARNING
Burn hazard at the exhaust system!
During regeneration, the exhaust system can develop exhaust temperatures of up to 350°C (662°F), even if the engine is running at idling speed, which can cause serious burns or death.
► Keep a safe distance from the exhaust system.
WARNING
Fire hazard during regeneration!
Hot exhaust gases in easily flammable surroundings can cause serious injury or death.
► Under pressure, the exhaust temperature can be up to
600°C (1112°F). Only use suitable exhaust-gas suction systems.
► Provide for sufficient ventilation when operating in enclosed areas.

► Avoid regular operation when the engine is cold.
► Do not ignore indicator lights.
NOTICE
Fire hazard at the exhaust system.
► There must be no easily flammable material in the direct vicinity of the exhaust system, in particular near the end pipe.
Information
The load is the contamination level of the diesel particulate filter. Among other things, this level depends on the load on the diesel engine:
Information
Wacker Neuson recommends not to influence the automatic regeneration system if possible. This avoids unscheduled visits to the service center.
Information
Interrupting a regeneration increases the contamination level in the particulate filter. It may result in the vehicle stopping and requiring service regeneration by an authorized service center.

Description/Measures
There is a serious fault in the system
Level 3 is the last chance, to prevent service regeneration.
After the engine is started, rpm falls down to the idling speed step by step. The rpm can be increased again, only after carrying out a regeneration.
If the vehicle has to be driven through a danger area, turn off ignition and then turn it on again. However, that should only be done in case of an emergency, since that could lead to a need of service regeneration.
Measures for the operator:
Fold up the joystick base and run the engine.
There is an irreversible fault in the system
A service regeneration must be carried out or the diesel particulate filter must be replaced.
It is not possible to have a higher rpm anymore.
The vehicle can only be driven with a lot of limitations.
Measures for the operator:
Contact a Wacker Neuson service center.
Information
The indicator lights can be positioned differently depending on the vehicle equipment and display element.

All table values are specified in kg (lbs), in horizontal position on firm and level ground without bucket or attachment (for example a hammer).
The vehicle’s lift capacity is restricted by the settings of the pressure limiting valves, the hydraulic output and the hydraulic system’s stabilizing features.
Neither 75% of the static tilt load nor 87% of the hydraulic lift capacity is exceeded.
Calculation basis according to ISO 10567
Setting pressure on boom cylinder: 24,500 kPa (3553 psi)
The lift capacity applies to vehicles under the following conditions:
• Lubricants and engine/vehicle fluids at the mandatory levels
• Full fuel tank
• Cab
• Machine at operating temperature
• Operator weight 75 kg (165 lbs)

Safety instructions load diagrams
Observe the values of the load diagrams in lifting gear applications.
DANGER
Crushing hazard due to tipping over of vehicle!
The vehicle causes serious injury or death when it tips over.
► Do not exceed the weights indicated in the load diagrams.
► Subtract the weight of the attachment from the weight specified in the relevant load diagram.
► Use the vehicle for lifting gear applications only if the mandatory lifting gear and safety equipment is installed, functional and enabled.
► The boom must be straight towards the cab - see Fig. 297
Fig. 297
NOTICE
If the weight is exceeded, there is a risk of damage to property if the vehicle tips over.
► Do not exceed the weights indicated in the load diagrams.
Information
The indications are only approximate values. Attachments, uneven ground and soft or bad ground conditions affect the vehicle’s stability, and thus the weight and mass it can handle. The operator must take these influences into account.

Explanation
Reach from live ring center
Load hook height in the respective range
Authorized lift capacity with horizontal boom
Stick short/long
Authorized lift capacity applies to entire swiveling range of 360°.
All table indications in kg (lbs.) and horizontal position on firm and level ground without bucket or exchangeable attachment.
The vehicle’s lift capacity is restricted by the settings of the pressure limiting valves, the hydraulic output and the hydraulic system’s stabilizing features.
Neither 75% of the static tilt load nor 87% of the hydraulic lift capacity is exceeded.
Calculation basis: according to ISO 10567
Setting pressure on boom cylinder: 24,500 kPa (3553 psi)
Lift capacities apply to vehicles under the following conditions:
• Lubricants and engine/vehicle fluids at the mandatory levels
• Full fuel tank
• Cab
• Machine at operating temperature
• Operator weight 75 kg (165 lbs.)

Load Lifting
Consult the rated lift capacity chart. Do not overload this machine. Know the exact lifting capacity of the machine as equipped. Make sure you have and know how to use a current lift capacity chart for the machine. Changing conditions such as slopes, wind, ice, mud, soft ground, type of load or the weight of attachments will affect the capacity and operating characteristics of the machine.
Consult your lift chart. Lifting and handling loads over the end of the machine, rather than over either side, will improve the lifting performance of the machine.
The retractable track frame, if equipped, should be fully extended for increased lifting performance.
Attach loads only to the manufacturer’s designated lifting points, if equipped.
If equipped, keep blade lowered for increased lifting performance. If ground is soft, place pads or timbers under the blade.
Operate the controls smoothly and slowly. Rapid and jerky movement of the controls can cause loss of both machine stability and control of the load.
Operate
Controls Smoothly
And Slowly
When lifting, be sure the load is properly balanced.
Move slowly so the load does not sway or swing around. Use a tag line for control.
If tracks or blade leave the ground, slowly lower the load to return the machine to the ground. Do not drop the load suddenly, because this can lead to loss of control.
Do not exceed rated lift capacity. Excessive load can cause tipping or loss of control.
Carry the load/attachment low and as close to the machine as possible. You must allow for movement in all directions. Be careful to maintain clearance of the attachment and load from the cab.
Keep all guards in place and windows closed or locked open. Keep cab doors closed or otherwise secured, if equipped.
Never leave the operator’s seat with a load suspended.

Locate All Underground Utilities
Confirm that One-Call has been contacted. Confirm that any utilities not subscribing to One-Call have been contacted. Confirm that the site has been marked or cleared. (See page 5, One-Call First .)
Obtain all information pertaining to the locate request, including the One-Call confirmation code or ticket number. If the facility owner has provided a locate sketch, obtain a copy. Review any engineering drawings provided by utilities. This information should be retained.
Personally verify One-Call utility marks. There are variations from state to state.
Take a copy of the locate sketch to the job site. Confirm all of the locates. Review the site for signs of unmarked utilities. These signs may include pedestals, pole risers, meters, trench lines, manhole covers, sewer drain outlets, etc. Review not only the immediate area, but also the perimeter of the area for utility markers.
Additionally, the area should be swept by an experienced operator using a device to locate utilities and large metal objects.
Any inconsistencies with line locations or any inaccurate locates must be resolved.
When excavating near underground services, expose the service by hand-digging or by using soft excavation, such as vacuum excavation, if permitted by local utilities.
When gas lines are present on the site, do not smoke or do anything to cause a spark in the vicinity of a gas line.
Make plans to restrict working area access—with cones and tape, barriers, warning signs, fences, etc.—until the job is complete.
Make certain that you are in compliance with all local, state/provincial, national and other requirements and regulations, including those regarding open excavations, or “potholes.”

Slope And Uneven Terrain Operation
34
Compact excavator stability and load capacity are greatly reduced on slopes. Ensure the operation can be done safely. Prevent overturns and maintain stability control:
— Use machines equipped with TOPS/ROPS and a seat belt. Make sure folding TOPS/ROPS is raised and locked in place—always use the seat belt.
— The retractable track frame, if equipped, should be extended for operating on slopes or uneven terrain.
Read and know manufacturer’s instructions before operation.
— Review the manufacturer’s manual for specific instructions and limitations, including those for proper operation of alternate/emergency exits.
— Avoid extremely steep slope operation.
— Keep machine movements slow and smooth.
— Level the working area and machine as much as possible.
— Avoid working with the tracks across a slope.
This will reduce stability and increase the tendency of the machine to slide. Position the machine with the tracks running up and down the slope—blade downhill and lowered.
— Avoid slippery ground conditions.
Always Check
Manuals For Specific
Instructions

Hazardous Conditions
When working in hazardous areas, be extremely alert.
Always consult the manufacturer’s operator manual for specific instructions.
Extreme caution is required when working near the edge of an excavation. Keep the machine a safe distance away from the edge. Avoid undercutting.
WARNING!
Never undercut a high bank.
The edges could collapse or a slide could occur, resulting in death or serious injury.
Work the jobsite in a manner that avoids creating overhangs or the need to be on top of banks or slopes.
Never operate the machine close to the edge of an overhang or stockpile.
Extreme caution should be used when working along the top of banks and slopes. Keep as far back from the edge as possible. Level the area if possible. Keep the machine tracks perpendicular to the edge so that if part of the edge collapses, the machine can be moved back.
Immediately move the machine back at any indication the edge may be unstable.
