AVOID ACCIDENTS
Most accidents, whether they occur
in
industry,
on
the
farm, at home or
on
the road, are caused by the failure
of some individuals to follow simple and fundamental
safety rules and precautions. For this reason MOST
ACCIDENTS CAN
BE
PREVENTED by recognising
the real cause and doing something aboiut it before the
accident occurs.
Regardless of the care used
in
the design and
construction of any type of equipment, there are many
conditions that cannot
be
completely safeguarded
against
without
interfering
in
the
reasonable
accessibility and efficient operation.
A careful! operator is the best insurance against
an
accident. The complete observance of one simple rule
would prevent many serious accidents.
The rule is simple: never attempt to clean, lubricate or
maintain a machine while it is
in
motion.
WARNING
Prior to engaging
in
any maintenance, adjustment
or
repair
operation
on
machines
having
hydraulically,
mechanically,
and/or
cable
controlled equipment (such as shovels, loaders,
dozers, excavators etc.) be certain the equipment is
lowered to the ground.
If it is necessary to have the equipment partially or
fully raised to gain access to certain items,
be
sure
the equipment is suitably supported by means
other than the devices used for controlling the
equipment.
