5.2 Guard
The guard is a steel structure that is installed on the feed. The guard provides increased
safety when the machine is in operation.
The following applies for machines that are installed with a guard:
• The guard must be closed during drilling.
• The machine must be switched off before the guard is opened for maintenance or for
any other type of work.
• The hatch must be locked in the open position when the guard is opened.
• The guard does not affect the operating procedures of the machine.
5.3 FOPS and ROPS
The cab has a Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS) and Roll Over Protective Struc-
ture (ROPS). FOPS (ISO 3449) provides the operator with protection from falling debris
and objects. ROPS (ISO 3471) is designed to provide protection for the operator if the ma-
chine turns over.
!
NOTE: The seat belt must always be worn to provide full ROPS protection.
• If the FOPS or ROPS construction is damaged, contact the Epiroc local customer cen-
ter before starting any repairs.
• Do not modify the FOPS or ROPS construction. Modifications like welding, drill holes,
cutting, or installation of tools on the FOPS or ROPS structures, invalidate the FOPS
and ROPS certification and reduce operator protection.
• Do not add attachments that cause the total weight of the machine to exceed the total
gross weight displayed on the FOPS and ROPS label.
