Wheel Loader Safety
To prevent death or serious injury when towing, always do the
following:
• Follow the instruction given in this manual.
• When performing preparation work for towing with
two or more people, determine signals to use and
correctly follow these signals.
• Always attach wire rope onto left and right hooks and
secure in position.
• If engine on problem machine will not start or there is
a failure in brake system, always contact your
DOOSAN distributor before towing.
• Never go between towing machine and towed
machine during towing operation.
• Do not perform towing on steep slopes, so select a
place where slope is gradual. If there is no place
where slope is gradual, perform operations to reduce
angle of slope before starting towing operation.
• When towing a machine, always use a wire rope with
a sufficient towing capacity.
• Do not use a wire rope that is kinked or frayed, or a
wire rope with any loss of diameter. Wear leather
gloves when handling a wire rope.
• Do not use lightweight towing hook for towing another
machine.
• Make sure that towing eyes and towing devices are
adequate for towing loads.
• Only connect wire rope to a drawbar or to a hitch.
• Operate the machine slowly and be careful not to
apply any sudden load to wire rope.
Attachment
Never let anyone ride on any work attachment, such as bucket,
forks or grapple. This creates a falling and/or crushing hazard,
and can result in death or serious injury.
• When using a fork or grapple, do not attempt to pick
up an object with its tips. This could damage the
machine or cause personal injury, if picked-up object
falls off attachment.
• Do not use impact force of work equipment for
demolition work. This could damage work equipment,
cause broken materials to fly off or a rollover. This
could result in death or serious injury.
