-3SAFE OPERATION
5. Make sure that the dozer is on the front side.
(The dozer must be raised.) If the swing
frame has been turned 180 , i.e. the dozer
is, seen from the operator, "behind", then the
travel direction is opposite to the drive
direction of the levers (when activating the
drive lever forwards, the excavator, seen
from the operator, will move backwards).
6. Do not run the engine in closed or badly
ventilated rooms. Carbon monoxide is
colourless, odourless and deadly.
7. Keep all safety equipment and covers in
place. Replace damaged or missing safety
devices.
8. Precautions against tipping over. In order to
secure safe operation, keep away from
steep slopes and embankments. Do not
swing the bucket downwards. Lower the
dozer during digging. Keep the bucket as
low as possible while driving upwards. Turn
slowly on slopes. Do not keep the excavator
near the edges of trenches and banks, as
the earth can give way due to the weight of
the excavator.
9. Watch out at all times where the excavator is
being moved to. Keep an eye out for
hindrances.
10.Keep enough distance from trench and bank
edges.
C Safety for children
Tragedy can occur if the operator is not alert to
the presence of children. Children generally are
attached to machines and the work they do.
11.Never assume that children will remain
where you last saw them.
12.Keep children out of the work area and
under the watchful eye of another
responsible adult.
13.Be alert and shut your machine down if
children enter the work area.
14.Never carry children on your machine. There
is no safe place for them to ride. They may
fall off and be run over or interfere with your
control of the machine.
15.Never allow children to operate the machine
even under adult supervision.
16.Never allow children to play on the machine
or on the implement.
17.Use extra caution when backing up, look
behind and down-make sure area is clear
before moving.
18.When parking your machine if at all possible
park on a firm, flat and level surface; if not,
park across a slope. Set the parking
brake(s), lower the implements to the
ground, remove the key from the ignition and
lock the cab door (if equipped) and chock the
crawlers or the wheels.
