OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL STE35SR
Safety First
When installing attachments or options to the machine, it is necessary to pay attention to safety.
Please obey the following precautions strictly when selecting, installing, or using attachments or
options.
Install only attachments or options authorized by CFG. CFG cannot accept any responsibility for
any accident, damage, or failure caused by the use of attachments or options not authorized by
CFG.
General considerations
Accessories are powerful tools. To prevent serious injury or damage, use them correctly.
Read through the attached instructions. Do not use attachments without fully understanding
the instructions. If the instruction manual is lost, contact the manufacturer or attachment sales
company for a new one.
Install the necessary front cover on the machine as attached.
Depending on the attachment, vibration noise will make it difficult for colleagues to
communicate instructions. Before starting operation, assign a conductor and determine the
signal to be used.
Do not perform rotary operation with heavy loads on the attachment. Doing so on slopes is
particularly dangerous.
A machine with a crusher hammer has a heavier load on the front part of the work unit and is
unstable compared to the one with a bucket. To avoid the risk of tipping, do not operate when
the attachment is turned sideways.
When accessories are installed, the range and center of rotation of the machine are different.
The machine will move unexpectedly. Be sure to know the machine properly.
Set up some security lines around the machine before operation to prevent people from
entering. Do not operate the machine when there is a man near it.
To prevent serious accidents caused by disoperation, do not put your foot on the pedal except
when operating the pedal.
Precautions when removing or installing
When removing or installing the attachment or option, obey the following precautions, and take
care to ensure safety during the operation.
Carry out the removal and installation operation on a flat, firm ground surface.
When the operation is carried out by two or more workers, choose the leader and follow his
instructions.
Use a crane when handling heavy objects (more than 25 kg (55 lb)). (The crane must be
operated by a qualified operator.)
Never go under a load raised by the crane.
Do not carry out operations with the load kept raised by the crane. Always use a stand to
prevent the load from falling.
When removing a heavy part, consider the balance after it is removed. To prevent the
machine from tipping over, set a support in position if necessary before removing the part.
Before installing or after removing the attachment or option, set it in a stable condition to
prevent it from falling over.
