– The machine must be positioned, moved and operated in such a way that it is stable and that there
is no danger of overturning. Only known loads may be moved with the equipment; this applies par-
ticularly when using the grab.
– Position the upper structure in the longitudinal direction when moving and hold the load as close
to the ground as possible.
EXCEPTION: “Safe use when loading and unloading (particularly when loading and unloading
wood)” on page 8.
– Adjust your driving speed to suit local conditions.
– Avoid any working movements which may tip the machine. Should the machine start to tip or slide
sideways, however, turn the upper structure to face downhill and lower the equipment at the same
time.
– As far as possible, work downhill or uphill and not side on to the slope.
– Drive safely on stony, sleepery or inclined ground
– Only drive downhill at the permitted speed or you could lose control of the machine.
– Always shift down to a lower running step before a slope. When doing this, the diesel engine must
run at maximal speed and the speed may only be reduced using the accelerator pedals.
– Load an occupied truck only if all safety requirements are fulfilled, notably in order to protect the
truck operator.
– For demolition work, digging and crane operations etc., always use protective devices specifically
designed for the purpose.
– For terrain which is difficult to gain an overview of and whenever necessary, ask for the assistance
of a spotter. Only permit one person to give you signals.
– Only permit experienced personnel to attach loads and give signals to the machine operator. The
spotter must be positioned within the visual range of the operator or be in voice contact with him.
– Depending on the equipment combination, there is a risk of collision between the work tool and
the cab, the cab protection or the boom cylinders. The greatest degree of care must be taken to
avoid damage when the hoe teeth come within this area.
– Depending on the equi pment combination, there is a ris k of collision between the lift ring of the
attachment and the cab or the cab protection. Before operating, ensure that there is no risk of col-
lision, especially on excavator with cab elevation. If necessary remove the lift ring.
– In case of a thunderstorm :
• lower the attachment to the ground and if possible anchor the digging tool into the soil.
• leave the cab and move away fr om the machine before the storm breaks out. Otherwise, you
must stop the excavator, turn off the radio and keep inside the closed cab until the end of the
storm.
– Auxiliary control units can have various functions. Always check their functions when starting up
the machine.
– Stop the swinging motion of the uppercarriage when lowering the attachment into a ditch without
striking the attachment on the ditch walls.
– Inspect the machine for damage if the attachment has been swung into a wall or any other obsta-
cles.
– Applications in which the attachment is to be used to strike the material being extracted are not
permitted, even when working in a longitudinal direction.
– Repeated strikes against an object leads to damage to the steel structures and machine compo-
nents.
– Please refer to your LIEBHERR dealer if special teeth for heavy-duty or special applications are
required.
– Do not attach too large bucket or bucket with side cutters or that are during operations with rocky
material. This would prolong the work cycles and may lead to damage to the bucket as well as
further machine components.
– With the 2x45° offset articulation, the offset position may only be employed if the working tool or
the attachment does not touch the material.
– Operation of the offset articulation to drill into the material is not permitted.

– Do not lift th e machine during operation. Should this happen, lower the machine slowly back to
the ground.
– Do not let the machine fall heavily on the ground and do not hold it back with the hydraulics. This
would damage the machine.
– During operation with the attachment it is fo rbidden to raise the machine with the dozing blade
(e.g. carving at the ceiling when tunnelling).
Safe use with a hydraulic hammer

– The hydraulic hammer must be selected with particular care. When using a hydraulic hammer not
permitted by LIEBHERR, steel structures or the other machine components can become dam-
aged.
– Before beginning breaking tasks, position the machine on firm and level ground.
– Use a hydraulic hammer designed exclusively for breaking stone, concrete and other breakable
materials.
– Only operate the hydraulic hammer in the longitudinal direction of the machine and with the wind-
shield closed or with a front protective grid.
– Ensure during hammer operation that no cylinder is entirely extended or retracted and that the
stick is not in the vertical position.
– In order to avoid damages to the machine, try not to break stone or concrete while performing re-
traction and extension motions of the hydraulic hammer.
– Do not apply the hydraulic hammer uninterrupted for more than 15 secs. at a time to th e same
place. Change the breaking point. Too long uninterrupted operation of the hydraulic hammer leads
to an unnecessary overheating of the hydraulic oil.
– Do not use the drop force of the hydraulic hammer to break stone or other materials. Do not move
obstacles with the hydraulic hammer. Misuse of this nature would damage both the hammer and
the machine.
– Do not use the hydraulic hammer to lift objects
Safe use when loading and unloading (particularly when loading and unload-
ing wood)
– According to use, it can be necessary when working with a grab to move with the equipment raised
and the load lifted up; this applies, for example, when loading and unloading wood.
– Here, the centre of gravity of the machine will be displaced upwards in the vertical direction. The
driving characteristics of the ma chine will thus be influenced pers istently, e.g. through reduction
of the dynamic stability.
The following instructions are therefore to be observed at all times:
• Adjust vehicle ha ndling to suit the a ltered ma chine char acteristics and en vironmental con di-
tions.
• Reduce your speed to prevent the need for sudden braking and steering manoeuvres.
• Avoid sudden speed changes, such as braking, accelerating and changing direction.
• Only rotate the upper structure when the undercarriage is stationary.
• Only rotate the upper structure after you have picked up the load.
• Only move the machine when you have picked up and lifted the load and rotated the upper struc-
ture to the driving position.
• There is a danger of possible swinging movement and dropping of the load when the equipment
is raised.
• A protective grid (FOPS) in accordance with ISO 10262 must be attached to the cab.
• A protective roof (FOPS) in accordance with ISO 10262 must be attached if ther e is a risk of
objects falling from above.
• Only the maximum permissible load may be taken up using the grab.
– NOTE: The weight of a bsorbent materials, such as logs, is de pendent on length, diameter and
specific weight. The influencing variables present in a natural product, such as moisture, must be
noted.
1.10.8 R 964 C / R 974C

MJFCIFSS
– Working procedures when using machines with grabs re quire t he m achine operator to r eceive
special instruction and training.
– Use as part of the work process is only permitted when the machine operator has sufficient train-
ing and practical experience.
Safe use of machines with tower elevation

– Due to the tower elevation, the centre of gravity of the machine will be displaced upwards in the
vertical direction. The driving and work characteristics of the machine will thus be influenced per-
sistently, e.g. through reduction of the dynamic stability.
– Due to the heightened centre of gravity, the machine must be aligned horizontally before use. In
horizontal alignment, the centre of gravity of the upper structure is over the centre of the under-
carriage, which reduces the risk of tilting.
– The machine can still sway and tilt despite being aligned!
The following instructions are therefore to be observed at all times:
When moving the machine:
• Rotate the upper structure parallel to the undercarriage undercarriage (transport position).
• Draw the equipment as close as possible to the machine.
• Only at this point may the support feet be retracted and the machine moved.
• Moving with loads is not permitted.
• Check the terrain to be covered to ensure that the ground is solid and even. Potholes and une-
ven surfaces jeopardize the stability of the machine.
• Adjust vehicle handling to suit the altered machine characteristics (high centre of gravity) and
environmental conditions.
• Reduce your speed to prevent the need for sudden braking and steering manoeuvres.
• Avoid sudden speed changes, such as braking, accelerating and changing direction.
• Ascending gradients and obstacles may only be approached in the longitudinal direction in order
to prevent unacceptable banking of the machine.
• Special care should be taken when driving through narrow passages - drive slowly!
When loading and unloading:
• The machine must be supported and aligned horizontally before moving (slewing) the upper
structure out of the transport position.
• It is imperative that you check the contact surface of the support (load carrying capacity of the
substrate). A support subsiding would have disastrous consequences!
• Carry out all movements with increased care.
• To slew the load, move the equipment as close as possible to the machine (Caution! swinging
grab)and hold the load close to the undercarriage and above the substrate.
• Avoid braking or accelerating the equipment or upper structure abruptly.
• Do not lift any loads which are heavier than those given in the load chart.
Protection from vibration

– Vibrational loads on mob ile building machinery are mainly the result of the type and method of
use. The following parameters in particular are decisive influences:
• Terrain conditions: Uneven areas and potholes;
• Operational techniques: Speed, steering, brak es, controlling th e machine’s control elements
when driving and working.
– To a lar ge e xtent, the machine op erator determines the vi brational load s since he sele cts th e
speed, gearbox ratio, working method and route himself.
This means that there is a wide range of different vibrational loads for the same machine type.
Whole-body vibrational load for the machine operator can be reduced if the following recommenda-
tions are observed:
– Select suitable machines, equipment parts and auxiliary devices for each part of the job.
– Use a machine that has a suitable seat (i.e. for earth-moving machinery such as hydraulic exca-
vators, this should be a seat which corresponds with EN ISO 7096).
R 964 C / R 974C 1.10.9

copyright by
MJFCIFSS
– Keep the seat in good condition and adjust it as follows:

• The seat and its damping action should be adjusted depending on the weight and height of the
operator.
• Check the seat’s damping action and adjustment mechanisms regularly and ensure that these
seat characteristics remain as per the seat manufacturer’s instructions.
– Check the maintenance status of the machine, particularly with respect to: tyre pressure, brakes,
steering, mechanical connections etc.
– Do not steer, brake, accelerate, shift gears, move or load the machine’s equipment jerkily.
– To reduce vibrational load, adjust the machine speed to suit the route as follows:
• Reduce speed when driving on difficult terrain;
• Drive around obstacles and avoid driving on very difficult terrain.
– Keep the terrain on which the machine is working and driving in good condition:
• Remove large stones and obstacles;
• Fill in ruts and holes;
• Have machines ready to prepare and maintain suitable ground conditions and calculate in suf-
ficient time to carry out any work required.
– Drive longer distances (e.g. on public roads) at an appropriate (medium) speed.
– Use special auxiliary systems (if available) which reduce vibration for machines that are driven fre-
quently.
If such auxiliary systems are not available, regulate speed to avoid "oscillating" the machine.
Towing the machine safely

– Always follow the correct procedure: see chapter “Towing the machine” in these operating instruc-
tions.
– The machine may only be towed in exceptional circumstances, e.g. in order to move the machine
away from an area where it is at risk.
– Before towing, check all attachments and towing devices for safety and stability.
– Towing devices such as bars, cables or ropes must have adequate tensile strength and should be
secured around the undercarriage tower or the towing hook provided on the undercarriage.
Any damage or accidents which occur while towing the machine are not covered by the manufac-
turer’s guarantee.
– Ensure that there is no one in the vicinity of the towing devices when towing.
– Stretch safely and hold the towing devices. Avoid kinks on cables or ropes.
– When towing, maintain the correct transport position, permitted speed and route, and avoid lurch-
ing.
– After towing, return the machine to correct operational status.
– When restarting the machine, be sure only to proceed in accordance with the operating instruc-
tions.
Attaching and removing equipment parts safely

– Equipment or attachments made by other manufacturers or those which do not have general ap-
proval from LIEBHERR for installation or attachment may not be installed or attached to the ma-
chine without LIEBHERR’s prior written consent.
– LIEBHERR must be provided with the appropriate technical documentation necessary for this pur-
pose.
– Before carrying out any major repair work on the equipment, position the machine on level, firm
ground.
– Do not work beneath the equipment if it is not safely positioned on the ground or supported with
wooden blocks.
– Before loosening lines or unscrewing bolts, you must store the equipment, switch off the engine
and press the start key to the contact position and both joysticks and the pushbuttons to “Turn
grab” in order to reduce the pressure in the hydraulic system.
1.10.10 R 964 C / R 974C

MJFCIFSS
– Do not attempt to lift heavy parts. Use devices which are suitable for this purpose and which have
sufficient load carrying capacity.
– Do not use cable which is damaged or does not have sufficient load carrying capacity. Wear work
gloves when working with wire cables.
– When working on the equipment: switch off the engine and keep the safety lever tilted up. Never
use your fingers to locate bores; use the correct punch for the procedure.
– During repair work: ensure that the hydraulic lines are secured correctly and that all bolts and con-
nections are tight.
– When you have removed and chocked an equipment part, close open areas of the hydraulic circuit
to stop dirt entering. Only allow authorized persons in the vicinity of the machine or the lifting de-
vice used.
Removing and installing equipment bolts safely

– If possible, always use a hydraulic bolt press to press out the equipment’s bolts.
– If you have to remove a bolt using a sledge-hammer, a driving punch and a bore hole conductor
held by another person must be used.
– To drive in a bolt, screw the drive screws provided in the toolbox into the bolt's threaded hole and
only hammer these screws.
– When installing bolts locked by means of castle nuts and cotter pins, first drive the bolt to the stop,
then screw the castle nut by hand until contact and then only pull it far enough to push in the cotter
pin.
Transporting the machine safely

– Due to transport restrictions, use only suitable means of transport and lifting devices with sufficient
load-carrying capacity.
– Park the machine on a flat surface and wedge the crawler or wheels securely.
– If required, detach a part of the machine’s working equipment during transportation.
– The ramp used to drive the machine up onto the flatbed trailer should not exceed an inclination of
30° and should have a wooden cover to prevent sliding back.
– The undercarriage undercarriage should be swept clean, i.e. before driving up the ramp, clean any
snow, ice and mud from the crawler / wheels of the machine.
– Align the machine precisely with the loading ramp.
– Attach the hand lever for fine-tune driving (crawler excavator) onto the accelerator pedals.
– Ensure that a spotter gives the machine operator the required signal.
– Prepare the placing block to ensure against rolling back when the machine is driving up onto the
flatbed.
– Tilt the equipment up and drive up the loading ramp. While doing this, always hold the equipment
securely over the loading area, drive very carefully up the ramp and onto the transportation vehi-
cle.
– Rotate the upper structure carefully to the rear and lower the equipment. Due to restrictions during
transport on hoe equipment, tilt the arm in and dismantle the bucket during transportation.
– After loading the machine onto the flatbed trailer, the upper structure must be secured facing the
undercarriage using the stop bolts (only A devices).
– Secure the undercarriage and the remaining individual parts using chains and blocks to prevent
slipping.
– Before you leave the machine, reduce pressure on all pressure lines, remove the ignition key and
tilt up the safety lever.
– Lock all cab and panel doors.
– Before transportation, find out all details about the route to be travelled, particularly as they relate
to width, height and weight restrictions.
– Pay particular attention when driving under electrical lines and bridges and through tunnels.

Servicing the machine safely
– When unloading the machine, take the same amount of care as was taken when it was loa ded.
Remove all chains and blocks. Start the engine as per the operating instructions. Drive carefully
off the trailer’s loading area and down the ramp. Hold the working equipment as securely as pos-
sible over the ground while doing this. Have a spotter guide you.
5 Servicing the machine safely
General safety instructions

– Maintenance and repair work may only be carried out by specially trained personnel.
– Observe statutory timetables or intervals given in the operating instructions for repeat tests / ins-
pections. It is imperative that a suitably equipped workshop is available in order to carry out main-
tenance work.
– The inspection and maintenance schedule given at the end of these operating instructions defines
precisely who is required / permitted to carry out what work.
Jobs listed as daily / weekly work may be carried out by the machine's driver or maintenance per-
sonnel when they have received appropriate instruction.
The remaining work may only be carried out by specialist personnel with appropriate training.
– Replacement parts must correspond to the technical requirements determined by the manufactu-
rer. Original replacement parts are always guaranteed to meet these criteria.
– Always wear safe work clothes when carrying out maintenance work. Avoid the wearing of rings,
wrist watches, ties, scarves, open jackets, baggy clothing etc... There is a risk of injury from, for
example, getting caught up or being drawn in.
Protective goggles, safety helmets, safety shoes and gloves, reflective vests and ear protection
etc. are required for specific jobs.
– Do not remain in direct proximity of the diesel engine while the diesel engine is running.
Persons with pacemakers should not approach within 20 cm of the running diesel engine.
Do not touch voltage-carrying parts on the electrical connection of the individual solenoid injection
pumps (Unit Pumps UP) while the diesel engine is running.
– Do not permit unauthorised persons to approach the machine during maintenance work.
– Cordon off a wide maintenance area if required.
– Inform operational personnel before starting to carry out any special work and repair work. Desi-
gnate persons in charge of supervision.
– In the absence of an y other information in the operating instructions, carry out all maintenance
work on the machine on level, firm ground with the working equipment set aside and the engine
switched off.
– For some machines, the only one position which enables a secured access to every maintenance
locations on the uppercarriage, is when the uppercarriage is aligned with the undercarriage so that
the sprockets locate at the back-end.
The ladder situated on the undercarriage only corresponds with the uppercarriage’s access when
the excavator is in this configuration.
– Pull out the ignition key and shut off the main battery switch.
– Always tighten any loose screw connections during maintenance and repair work.
– The mounting bolts of the main components, of the hydraulic hoses and of the counterweight must
be replaced after every removal.
– If safety devices have to be dismantled during set-up, maintenance and repair work, they must be
immediately reinstalled and checked at the end of the work.
– When carrying out repair work, particularly when working under the machine, hang a “Do not start”
warning sign in a clearly visible position on the starting lock. Pull out the start key and shut off the
main battery switch.
– Operate combustion motors and fuel operated heaters only in well ventilated areas. Before ope-
rating these units, check ventilation.
– In addition, always follow applicable local regulations.

Cleaning
– Clean oil, fue l or care products off the machine before starting maintenance or repair work and
pay particular attention to connections and screw fittings.
Do not use aggressive cleaning products and use lint-free cleaning cloths.
– Do not use aggressive cleaning products or steam jet devices to clean the machine for the first
two months after initial set-up of the machine (or after repainting).
– Do not use combustible liquids to clean the machine.
– Before cleaning the machine with water or steam jets (high pressure cleaner) or other cleaning
materials:
• lubricate all bearing points, bolt connections and the rim bearing to prevent water or steam en-
tering the bearing points.
• cover or glue shut all openings into which for safety or functional reasons water or steam may
not be permitted to enter.
Electric motors, electrical components, control boxes, plug connections and air filters are partic-
ularly at risk.
– Ensure that the fire warning systems and fire extinguishers of the engine compartment’s temper-
ature sensor do not come into contact with hot cleaning products during cleaning work.
The fire extinguisher could start.
– If you use a high pressure cleaner with steam or hot water to clean the machine, observe following
recommendations :
• the distance between the nozzle and the surface to be cleaned must be no lower than 20 inches
• the water temperature should not exceed 60°c (140°F)
• limit the water pressure to 80 bar maximum (11500 PSI)
• if you employ cleaning fluid, only use neutral cleaning agents such as customary car shampoos
diluted to 2 or 3 percent maximum
– After cleaning:
• remove all covers completely.
• check all fu el, engine oil and hydraulic lines for leakage, loosened connections, ch afing and
damage.
• rectify any defects found immediately.
• lubricate all bearing points, bolt connections and the rim bearing to displace any water or clean-
ing products that may have entered.
Crack testing
– Even when the machine is operated carefully, there is a possibility of individual cases of overload-
ing occurring, which could lead to cracks or loose connections. The machine should therefore be
checked regularly for cracks, loose connections or other visible damage to maintain operational
safety.
– In order to be able to check for cracks, it is essential that the machine is kept clean and cleaned
regularly.
– The tests should be carried out in accordance with the monitoring and maintenance plan:
• every 250 operating hours by the machine owner’s maintenance personnel.
• every 500 operating hours by authorised specialist personnel.
– It is advisable to carry out these tests: supported, on firm, horizontal substrate, with the equipment
in longitudinal and cross direction for variable loads. Current accident prevention regulations must
be adhered to.
– Special care must be taken when testing load-bearing components, particularly:
• the steel chassis members and axle a nd transmission mountings, the support, the lo wer rim
bearing support and tower and ball rim bearing.
• the steel upper structure members and bearing block for boom and boom cylinder, the upper rim
bearing support, the cab mount and the mount for swing gear and ballast.
• the steel components of the working equipment, e. g. the boom, stay, quick change adaptor, and
bucket.
• hydraulic cylinders, axles, steering, bolts and bolt connections, steps, ladders and mounting el-
ements.
R 964 C / R 974C 1.10.13

MJFCIFSS
– The crack test should be carried out visually. If a crack is suspected, the dye pe netration test
should be carried out as a crack test on areas which do not have good v isibility, such as the rim
bearing support, in order to increase testing safety.
– Any da mage fo und mu st be r ectified im mediately. We lding wo rk on load -bearing par ts o f the
earth-moving machinery, loading devices and transport devices may only be carried out by trained
specialist personnel and only in accor dance with the accepted rules of we lding engineering. In
case of doubt, contact the LIEBHERR customer support service to discuss suitable remedies.
Welding, drilling, firing and grinding work

– Any welding on structural parts (as undercarriage, uppercarriage, equipment parts,…) may only
be done the manufacturer, or authorized official dealer. If this ru le is ne glected, the warranty is
voided.
– Only carry out welding, drilling, firing and grinding work on the machine with express authorization.
Clean dust and combustible materials off the machine and its surrounding areas before welding,
drilling, firing or grinding.
Ensure adequate ventilation. Risk of fire or explosion.
– Before welding repairs on other parts, always disconnect the battery. Always remove the negative
terminal first and reconnect it last.
– Nevertheless if welding repair should be done on components which may contain inflammable
gases (welded counterweight, hydraulic tank, fuel tank, …), these components must be previously
and sufficiently ventilated with pressurized air to avoid all fire or explosion hazard
– Before welding, connect the ground cable as close as possible to the welding point, so the welding
current will not run through the swing ring, joints, gears, bushings, rubber parts and seals
Process materials
– When working with oils, greases and other chemical substances, observe the appropriate current
safety regulations for the product.
– Ensure that process materials and replacement parts are disposed of in a safe and environmen-
tally acceptable manner.
– Take care when handling hot process materials
(Risk of burning and scalding).
Repair work
– Do not attempt to lift heavy parts. Use devices which are suitable for this purpose and which have
sufficient load capacity. When replacing single parts and larger subassemblies, carefully secure
them on liftin g devices them so th at they do not present a risk. Only use su itable and correctly
functioning lifting devices and load take-up devices with adequate load capacity.
Do not stand or work under swinging loads.
– Do not use lifting devices which are damaged or do not have sufficient load carrying capacity.
Wear work gloves when working with wire cables.
– Only permit experienced personnel to a ttach loads and give signals to the cr ane operator. The
spotter must be positioned within the visual range of the operator or be in voice contact with him.
– When working above body height, use safe climbing devices and working platforms which are ap-
propriate for the job.
Do not use machine parts as climbing devices if they are not designed for this purpose.
When working at height, wear a harness to prevent falling.
Ensure that all grips, steps, rails, platforms and ladders are free of dirt, snow and ice.
– Pneumatic cylinders do not have to be used as handles. Open doors and covers carefully, so that
pneumatic cylinders do not hit their stops, because this could cause mechanical dammages.
– Be sure to support yourself safely when working on the equipment (e.g. replacing teeth). Prevent
metal touching metal when doing this.
– For sa fety reasons, ne ver o pen a nd remove a tra ck cha in u nless ha ving previously totally r e-
leased the pretension of the chain tensioning unit.
1.10.14 R 964 C / R 974C

– Never lay under the machine if it is ra ised with work equipment and has not been securely sup-
ported with wooden beams.
– Always jack the machine up in such a way that any weight displacement does not jeopardize sta-
bility and prevent metal touching metal while doing this.
– Work on the suspension, brake and steering systems may only be carried out by trained specialist
personnel.
– If the machine has to be repaired on a slope, secure the crawler with chocks and connect the up-
per structure to the chassis using stop bolts.
– Only personnel with special training and experience may work on hydraulic equipment.
– When searching for leakage, wear protective gloves. A fine jet of liquid under pressure can pen-
etrate the skin.
– Do not unscrew any lines or connections before you have set aside the equipment, switched off
the engine and depressurized the hydraulic system. After switching off the engine, with the start
key in contact position and with the safety lever down into its lowest position, you must operate all
pilot control devices (joystick and pedals) in all directions in order to reduce the actuating and dy-
namic pr essures in the wor k circuits. You must t hen re duce the internal tank p ressure a s de-
scribed in these operating instructions.
Electrical system
– Check the electrical system regularly.
Have all faults, such as loose connections, blown fuses and lamps and clogged or abraded cables
rectified by personnel.
– Only use original fuses with approved current strength.
– For machines with electrical neutral and high tension leads:
• switch the machine off immediately in the event of malfunctions in the power supply.
– Work on the machine’s electrical equipment may only be carried out by skilled electrical personnel
or by trained personnel under the supervision of an electrician in accordance with electrical regu-
lations.
– When working on live parts, ensure that a second person is available to operate the emergency-
off or the main switch and overvoltage release. Cordon off the working area with a red and white
safety chain and a warning sign. Only use insulated tools.
– When working on neutral and high tension subassemblies, after releasing the voltage, briefly dis-
connect the supply cable at earth and electronic devices such as capacitors using an earthing rod.
– First test the released parts to make sure that they are off circuit, earth them and then disconnect
them briefly. Insulate adjacent live parts.
– Disconnect the battery before working on the ele ctrical system or carrying out any electric arc
welding on the machine.
First disconnect the negative, then the positive pole. When reconnecting, proceed in the reverse
order.
Hydraulic accumulator
– All work on the hydraulic accumulators must be carried out by trained specialist personnel.
– Inexpert assembly and handling of hydraulic accumulators can cause serious accidents.
– Do not operate damaged hydraulic accumulators.
– Before working on a hydraulic accumulator, you must reduce the pressure in the hydraulic system
(hydraulic system including hydraulic tank), as described in these operating instructions.
– Do not carry out welding or soldering or do any mechanical work on the hydraulic accumulator.
The hydraulic accumulator can be damaged by heat penetration and can be made to rupture by
mechanical working. RISK OF EXPLOSION!
– Only charge the hydraulic accumulator with nitrogen. There is a RISK OF EXPLOSION if oxygen
or air is used.
– The accumulator body can become hot during operation; there is a risk of burning.
R 964 C / R 974C 1.10.15

MJFCIFSS
– New hydraulic accumulators must be charged with the pressure required for the purpose of use
before installation.
– The operating data (minimum and maximum pressure) are marked permanently on hydraulic ac-
cumulators. Ensure that this marking remains visible.
Hydraulic hoses and sheathed cables.

– It is forbidden to carry out repair work on hydraulic hoses and sheathed cables!
– All hoses, sheathed cables and bolt connections must be checked re gularly every 2 weeks for
externally visible damage and any possible damage must be immediately checked for leakage.
– Never check for leaks with your bare hands, use a sheet of paper or something else.
– Any damaged parts must be removed immediately! Spurting oil can lead to injury and burns.
– Even with correct storage and permitted load, hoses and sheathed cables are subject to the nat-
ural aging process. This restricts their duration of use.
• Incorrect storage, mechanical damage and unauthorized load are the most common causes of
failure.
• In relation to duration of use, current norms, regulations and guidelines pertaining to hoses and
sheathed cables at place of use must be adhered to.
• Use at the limit range of permissible load can shorten duration of use (e.g. high temperatures,
frequent movement cycles, extremely high pulse frequencies, multiple shift usage).
– Hoses and sheathed cables should be replaced if the following are found during inspection:
• Damage to the outer sheath as far as the liner (e.g. chafing, cuts and cracks);
• Brittleness of the outer sheath (fracture formation in hose material);
• Deformations which do not correspond to the natural form of the hose or sheathed cable, wheth-
er in a unpressurized or pressurized state or on bends e.g. sheath separation, blistering;
• Unsealed areas;
• Non-adherence to requirements during installation;
• Damage or deformations to the hose fittings which reduce the tightness of the fittings or the hose
/ fitting connection;
• Hoses working themselves out of the fittings;
• Corrosion of the fittings which reduces function and tightness;
– When replacing hoses and sheathed cables, use only original replacement parts.
– Install and mount hoses and sheathed cables correctly. Do not mix up the connections.
– The following is to be noted when replacing hoses and sheathed cables:
• Always ensure that the hoses and sheathed cables are installed free of torsion. For high-pres-
sure hoses, the screws from the half-clamps or full flange must always be attached to both hose
ends and should only be tightened afterwards.
• When tightening the flange on high-pressure hoses and sheathed cables with bent fittings, the
side with the bent fitting must always be tightened first and then the side with the straight fitting
tightened afterwards.
• Any mounting clamps which are located in the centre of the hose may only be attached and tight-
ened subsequently.
• Check daily to ensure that all clamps, covers and protective devices are properly fastened. Do-
ing this will prevent vibration and damage during operation.
• Install the hoses an d sheathed cables in such a way th at they cannot chafe on oth er hoses,
sheathed cables or parts.
• A minimum distance from other parts of approx. half the exterior diameter of the hose is recom-
mended. The distance should not, however, be less than 10 to 15 mm.

• When replacing the hoses or sheathed cables on moving parts (e.g. from the boom to the stay),
check before initial start-up that there are no chafing areas in the entire area of movement.

Lubricants and operating fluids
1.55: Lubricants and operating fluids

1 Lubricants and operating fluids
1.1 General information on changing lubricants and operating fluids
Note
The quantities given in the lubrication and operating material chart and on the lubri-
cation chart in the cab are only guide values.
X After each oil change or refill, check the level in the relevant unit.
Note!
Adhering to regulations for lubrication, level checks and operating material changes
guarantees a high degree of reliability and a long service life for the machine.
It is particularly important to adhere to the oil change intervals and use the specified
type of lubricant.
X Observe the following when using and checking lubricants and operating fluids:
– see "Lubricants and operating fluids"
– see "Inspection and maintenance schedule"
Note!
Cleanliness is of the utmost importance when changing oil.
X Clean all filler plugs, filler covers and drain plugs and their surroundings before
opening.
X For preference, drain off oil when it is at operating temperature.
X Ensure that old oils are collected and disposed of in an environmentally accept-
able manner using the removable oil filter cartridges.
Danger!
When checking and changing lubrication and operating materials, ensure that the
following precautions are adhered to:
X Unless otherwise indicated, carry out all work on the machine on level, solid
ground and with the engine switched off.
X Whenever you reach into the engine compartment, always secure the cover and
side doors against accidentally falling back or closing.
X Only refuel the machine when the engine is switched off, do not smoke and
avoid naked flame.

X Turn the main battery switch to position 0 (off) and remove the ignition key.

Lubricants and operating fluids Service Manual
Lubricants and operating fluids specification
2 Lubricants and operating fluids specification
2.1 Diesel fuel specification
The Diesel fu els mu st meet th e m inimum requirements of the fuel specifications

outlined below.
Approved fuel specifications.
– DIN EN 590
– ASTM D 975 (89a) 1D and 2D
The use of fuels with other specifications is only permitted with the explicit consent of the LIEBHERR.
2.1.1 Sulphur content of diesel fuel

Fuel that meets the DIN EN 590 standard may contain maximum 50 mg/kg (maximum 0,005 weight
percent) of sulphur.
The reduction of sulphur content has raised the problem of diesel fue l lubrication characteristics. It
has be en sh own tha t d iesel fue ls con taining the m aximum p ermitted Eu ropean s ulphur limit of
0.05 weight per cent can cause the fuel injection system to wear (particularly applicable to distributor-
type injection pumps).
"Low-sulphur" diesel fuels with a sulphur content of less than 0,05% are only suitable after addition
of a lubrication additive. According to HFRR (60) test, the lubricity of the diesel fuel may not exceed
460 µm (lubricity-corrected wear scar diameter [1.4] at 60 °C).
When using diesel fuels with a sulphur content of more than 0,5 weight percent, the oil change inter-
vals must be halved.
Do not use fuels with a sulphur content of more than 1 %.
Note!
The ASTM D 975 fuel standard does not specify that the fuels must undergo a fuel
lubricity test.
A written confirmation of compliance from fuel supplier must be submitted. The ad-
ditives should be added by the supplier, who is responsible for the quality of the fuel.
We advise machine operators not to add any secondary lubricity additives to the
fuel
ASTM D 975 fuels must have a cetane number of minimum 45. A cetane number of more than 50
is preferable, especially at temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
2.1.2 Diesel fuels for operation at low temperatures (winter)

At low temperatures, paraffin crystals are formed in the diesel fuel. They increase the flow reduction
in the fuel filter, so that the diesel engine might not be supplied with sufficient fuel.
Caution!
For technical and reasons, it is forbidden to add petroleum fuel to the diesel.
For arctic climates, use special diesel fuels developed for such extreme conditions.
X In the case of insufficient fluidity of th diesel fuel or températures below -20 °C:
use a start-up aid, such as a fuel filter heater.
1.55.2 R 964 C / R 974C

MJFCIFSS
2.2 Diesel fuels with the LIEBHERR Particles filter
Caution!
If the Liebherr particle filter is installed on the excavator, only use white diesel fuels
(EN 590).
2.3 Lubricating oil for the Diesel engine
Modern Diesel engines must be lubricated with high-performance oils. They consist
of a basic oil with special additives.
– The lubricating oil requirements for LIEBHERR Diesel engines are based on the
following standards and regulations:
Classification Specification
API classification (American Petrol In- CI-4, CH-4
stitute) Caution: observe shorter oil change in-
tervals
ACEA (CCMC) - classification (Associ-
ation des Constructeurs Européens de E4, E6, E7
l´Automobile)
Tab. 1 Lubricating oil for the Diesel engine - specifications
Caution !
Particle filter only permitted with oil E6.
2.3.1 Viscosity
The choice of the lubricating oil viscosity is done according to the SAE classification (Society of Au-
tomotive Engineers).
The relevant factor for the right choice of the SAE class is the ambient temperature.
The SAE classification does not provide any indication as regards the quality of a lubricating oil.
Excessively high viscosity might lead to start-up problems. If the viscosity is too low, the oil's lubrica-
tion might not be sufficiently efficient.
The temperature ranges shown in the diagram are approximate ranges that might temporarily be ex-
ceeded.
Fig. 1 Temperature-based selection of the SAE class

For ambiant temperatures of -20 °C (- 4 °F) to +45 ° C (+113 ° F), we recommand the following Diesel
engine oils:
Liebherr Motoroil 10W-40, specification ACEA E4
Liebherr Motoroil 10W-40 low ash, specification ACEA E6
For ambiant temperatures of -30 °C (-22 °F) to +30 °C (+86 °F), we recommand the following Diesel
engine oils:
Liebherr Motoroil 5W-30, specification ACEA E4
2.3.2 Lubricating oil change intervals

Change intervals: see chapter "Maintenance and inspection schedule".
Subsequent oil changes depend on the climate, sulphur content of the fuel and oil grade. For details,
see the table below.
If the specified operating hours (h) per year are not reached, the Diesel engine oil and filter must be
changed at least once every year.
A number of adverse factors (unfavorable operating conditions) affect the length of the change in-
terval.
Such adverse factors include:
– Frequent cold starts
– Sulphur content in fuel greter than 0,5 %
– Ambiant temperature below -10° C
If such a factory apply, the oil and filter must be changed according to th table below:

2.4 Coolant for the diesel engine

The coolant consists of an aqueous solution containing a corrosion inhibitor and an
antifreeze agent. It can be mixed by the operator using the products named below.
Alternatively, it can be purchased as a premixed solution.
2.4.1 General recommandations

The radiator works only properly when pressurised. It is therefore imperative that it is kept clean and
sealed at all times, that the radiator plug and working valves work properly and that the required cool-
ant level is maintained.

Coolants that contain unsuitable corrosion inhibitors or antifreeze agents or that have been prepared
incorrectly might cause failure of assemblies and component parts in the coolant circuit due to cavi-
tation or corrosion. Heat-insulating deposits on components that conduct heat might result in over-
heating and consequently failure of the engine.
Note!
The use of emulsifiable corrosion inhibitor oils is not permitted.

2.5.3 Warm-up instruction

The black bar B indicates that the ambient temperatures are maximum 20 °C below the operating
range C.
In the event of a cold start at an ambient temperature included in range B, the following warm-up in-
struction applies to the hydraulic oil:
X 1. Start the diesel engine and run it at approx. 1/2 rated speed. Carefully activate the working hy-
draulic circuits. Operate a hydraulic cylinder (Stick- for example) and move them to the stop quick-
ly and many times. After approx. 5 minutes, start the travel hydraulic circuits.
Warm-up duration: approx 10 minutes

At even lower temperature:
X 2. Before starting the engine, warm up the hydraulic oil tank. Then proceed according to the warm-
up instructions in 1.

2.5.4 Biodegradable hydraulic oils
Note!
Risk of damage to the hydraulic unit!
When mixing ester-based biodegradable hydraulic oils with mineral oils, there is a
risk of aggressive chemical reactions, which can damage the hydraulic equipment.
X Do not mix biodegradable hydraulic oils from different suppliers, and never mix
with mineral oils.
The use of a partial flow filters is mandatory.

Depending on the temperature range, LIEBHERR recommands its poly-alpaha-olefin (PAO, HEPR)
oils that are environmentally-friendly according to CEC-L-33-A-93:
Liebherr Hydraulic Plus or Liebherr Hydraulic Plus Arctic
If these oils are not available locally, use one of the following oils (before choosing an oil, contact our
customer service departement).
Fully saturated synthetic ester-based oils, HEES
Before using biodegradable hydraulic oil, you must consult LIEBHERR.
Do not use vegetable oils, as they do not possess the necessary thermal stability.
If you wish to use other products, it is your responsibility to obtain a warranty declaration from the oil
supplier.
2.5.5 Monitoring, filter change and oil change
Note!
Biodegradable hydraulic oils must be checked regularly by means of an oil anal-
ysis.
– Normal operation after change of oil* an then at least every 500 operating hours
– Dust intensive application: after change of oil* an then at least every 250 oper-
ating hours
For mineral oils, an oil analysis is only required if the oil change interval is to be
extended.
– Normal operation first time after 1500 operating hours, then every 500 operating
hours
– Dust intensive application: at least every 250 operating hours
LIEBHERR r ecommends conta cting WEAR-CHECK** with th ese ana lysis,and to
change the oil when indicated by the test results in the lab report (see also customer
service and product information).
* Change of oil = change from mineral oil to environmentally-friendly hydraulic oil

then every 500 operating hours and after each hydraulic oil change.
2.5.6 Instructions for the reduction of the contamination of the hydraulic oil in machines
used for dust intensive applications
If the machine is normally operated with a hydraulic hammer or under similar conditions (considerable
dust generation), the hydraulic oil might become more contaminated than under normal working con-
ditions.
In order to prevent premature wear of the hydraulic components, shorten the intervals between the
oil changes (or oil samples respectively) and observe the following instructions:
– The filter cartridge(s) in the return filter must be replaced every 500 operating hours and after eve-
ry hydraulic oil change.
R 964 C / R 974C 1.55.11

copyright by
MJFCIFSS
– Use 10-µm filter cartridges instead of the standard 20 / 5-µm cartridges.

– The 2-µm breather filter must be replaced every 500 operating hours and after every hydraulic oil
change.
Note!
Machines delivered with hydraulic hammer attachment and retrofitted hydraulic
hammer kits are already fitted with 10-µm filter cartridges in the return filter.
2.6 Transmission oil
Transmission oils must correspond to the specifications

– API-GL-5 and MIL-L-2105 B or C or D for viscosity class SAE 90.
For viscosity classes SAE 80 and SAE 90 in accordance with MIL-L-2105 D, an oil
of viscosity class SAE 80W90 can be used.
