- When working on slopes there is a danger that the ma-
chine can lose balance and roll-over while rotating or ac-
tivating the work attachments. Always maintain a stable
position, do not turn the turret or use the attachments.
- Drive slowly on grass, leaves and wet steel plates. The
machine can slide or become unbalanced with a risk of
overturning even on gentle slopes.
- When working on the upper part of buildings or on the
floors of buildings or other structures, check stability
before starting operations. The buildings could collapse
causing serious injury and damage.
- Do not use the impact force of the machine to carry out
work. These machines are not designed for this type of
use; this type of use could overturn the machine, dama-
ge or break components and attachments and cause
serious personal injury.
- CAUTION -
Snow hides obstacles and dangers, it buries objects,
lls in holes and ditches. If there is snow on the ground,
proceed with the utmost caution. IT IS STRICTLY FOR-
BIDDEN to work if there is so much snow that it is not
possible to identify any obstacles or dangers along
your route clearly.
- When clearing away snow, be careful not to leave the
edge of the road, objects buried below the snow on the
edge of the road could make the machine roll-over or
damage its components.
- Surfaces covered in snow or ice are extremely hazar-
dous; operate with the utmost care and drive the machi-
ne as slowly as possible and operate the levers slowly.
- Operate with the utmost care, if the machine plunges into
the snow there is a risk of overturning or being buried.
Take the utmost care to ensure you do not leave the edge
of the road and to avoid becoming trapped in snowdrifts.
- Take the utmost care on frozen ground; when the tempe-
rature rises, the terrain melts and becomes slippery.
- Look out for electricity cables, ditches, excavated ground
or recently lled excavations.
- Ensure there is no one at risk while reversing the machine
or rotating the turret.
- Check the space around the machine before carrying out
any manoeuvres.
- Ensure that no one is within the range of the machine or in
the work area.
- If the operator’s view is obstructed, use a person on the
ground to supervise manoeuvres. Always maintain visual
contact with the person on the ground.
- CAUTION -
Do not attempt operations that exceed the capacity of
the machine.
- CAUTION -
Do not raise loads that are heavier than the capacity of
the machine or the attachment and do not increase the
counterweight, whatever strategy employed.
- Drive around obstacles.
- When raising loads ensure that nothing or no one can hin-
der machine movements and avoid incorrect manoeuvres.
- Never leave the engine running if the driver is not in his
or her seat.
- Never leave the key in the machine if the operator is not present.
- CAUTION -
Never park the machine with a raised load.
- Dust, rain, fog, etc. can reduce visibility. If visibility is reduced,
reduce your speed accordingly and use appropriate lighting.
