INJURY FROM WORK EQUIPMENT
Do not enter or put your hand, arm or any other part
of your body between movable parts, such as
between the work equipment and cylinders, or
between the machine and work equipment.
If the control levers are operated, the clearance
between the machine and the work equipment will
change and this may lead to serious damage or
personal injury.
If going between movable parts is necessary,
always position and secure the work equipment so
that it cannot move.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND FIRST AID KIT
As a precaution if any injury or fire should occur,
always do the following.
• Be sure that fire extinguishers have been
provided and read the labels to ensure that you
know now to use them. It is recommended that
an appropriately sized (2.27 kg [5 lb] or larger)
multipurpose "A/B/C" fire extinguisher be
mounted in the cab. Check and service the fire
extinguisher at regular intervals and make sure
that all work site crew members are adequately
trained in its use.
• Provide a first aid kit in the storage compartment and keep another at the work site. Check the kit
periodically and make any additions if necessary.
• Know what to do in case of injury from fire.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance service, hospital and fire department you‘re your
telephone.
If the machine catches fire, it may lead to serious personal injury or death. If a fire occurs during operation,
escape from the machine as follows;
• Turn the starter switch "OFF" and shut down engine.
• If there is time, use the fire extinguisher to extinguish as much of the fire as possible.
• Use the handrails and steps to escape from the machine.
The above is the basic method for escaping from the machine, but changing the method may be necessary
according to the conditions, so carry out practice drills at the work site.
