SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before Operation
Carefully follow the operating and maintenance
instructions in this manual.
The Bobcat mini track loader is highly maneuverable and
compact. It is rugged and useful under a wide variety of
conditions. This presents an operator with hazards
associated with off highway, rough terrain applications,
common with Bobcat mini track loader usage.
The Bobcat mini track loader has an internal combustion
engine with resultant heat and exhaust. All exhaust
gases can kill or cause illness so use the mini track
loader with adequate ventilation.
The dealer explains the capabilities and restrictions of
the Bobcat mini track loader and attachment for each
application. The dealer demonstrates the safe operation
according to Bobcat instructional materials, which are
also available to operators. The dealer can also identify
unsafe modifications or use of unapproved attachments.
The attachments and buckets are designed for a Rated
Operating Capacity (some have restricted lift heights).
They are designed for secure fastening to the Bobcat
mini track loader. The user must check with the dealer, or
Bobcat literature, to determine safe loads of materials of
specified densities for the machine - attachment
combination.
The following publications and training materials provide
