SECTION 1
1-8
Before operating the machine, check the backhoe
attachment control pattern currently in use on the
machine. Failure to comply with these instructions
can cause unexpected machine movements, death
or serious injury.
Make sure that you fully understand the significance
of the safety decals on the machine. Make sure that
they are always clean and perfectly legible.
Be prepared for emergencies. Always keep a first
aid kit and a fire extinguisher close at hand on the
machine. Make sure that the fire extinguisher is
serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Check the machine at least once per working shift
for obvious damage and defects. Report any
changes (relevant to operation) immediately. If nec-
essary, stop the machine immediately and lock it.
Always fasten your seat belt before starting the
engine. The machine is equipped with a roll over
protection system (ROPS) which ensures your
safety. The seat belt will protect you efficiently if you
attach it correctly and if you always wear it. The seat
belt should not be too loose. It must not be twisted
or caught in the seat.
Make sure you know ways of getting out of the
machine (emergency exit via the right hand door) in
case the machine falls over or if access via the left-
hand door is not possible. Make sure that the right-
hand door is not locked.
Check the condition and pressure of the tyres regu-
larly.
