SAFETY
Do not allow passengers anywhere on machine except
on an approved passenger seat. Passengers must have
passenger seatbelt securely fastened during any
operation.
After operating in muddy conditions, allow sufficient time
for belts to reject debris and moisture before making high
speed maneuvers. Belts that are wet and belts that are
muddy may impede machine's steering.
If stability of machine is noticeably reduced, reduce travel
speed.
Select a gear that controls machine speed when
descending a hill.
Use service brakes if required to control machine speed.
Never coast down a hill with transmission in neutral.
Do not steer machine when you cross ditches. Ditches
that are wide and/or ditches that are deep may allow
guide blocks to sag below midwheels. This can cause belt
to come off.
Do not allow passengers anywhere on machine except
on an approved passenger seat. Passengers must have
passenger seatbelt securely fastened during any
operation.
Parking
Park on a level surface. If machine must be parked on a
grade, chock machines wheels.
Move transmission control lever to park position.
Lower all implements to ground.
Move implement controls to hold position.
Before stopping engine, move throttle control lever to low
idle position. Run engine at low idle speed for five minutes
to allow turbocharger to cool or use optional delayed
engine shutdown.
Stop engine.
Turn engine start switch to off position and remove engine
start switch key.
Turn battery disconnect switch to off position.
Operator Station
Any modifications to inside of operator station should not
project into operator space. The addition of a radio, fire
extinguisher and other equipment must be installed so
defined operator space is maintained.
Any item brought into cab should not project into defined
operator space. A lunch box or other loose items must be
secured. Objects must not pose an impact hazard in
rough terrain or in event of a rollover.
Crushing Prevention and Cutting
Prevention
Support equipment properly when performing work under
equipment. Do not depend on hydraulic cylinders to hold
equipment. An implement can fall if a control lever is
moved or if a hydraulic line breaks.
Never jump across starter solenoid terminals to start
machine. Unexpected machine movement could result.
Never attempt adjustments while machine is moving or
engine is running.
Whenever there are attachment control linkages,
clearance in linkage area will change with movement of
attachment.
Stay clear of all rotating parts and moving parts.
Keep objects away from moving fan blades. Fan blades
will throw objects and can cut objects.
Do not use a wire cable kinked or frayed. Wear gloves
when handling wire cable.
Loose retainer pins can injure personnel. Make sure there
are no people in area when striking a retainer pin. To
avoid injury to your eyes, wear protective glasses when
striking a retainer pin.
Chips or other debris may fly off objects when striking
objects. Make sure no one will be injured by flying debris
before striking any object.
