SAFETY
Operating Precautions
Do not suddenly stop or lower
the working equipment
Sudden lowering or stopping of the working
equipment could cause the machine to tip
over due to the reaction.
Especially when the bucket is loaded,
operate the working equipment carefully.
Avoid overloading and off-center
loads
Filling the bucket in excess of the maximum
load and loading an off-center load will cause
the machine to become unstable and could
result in the machine tipping over. Loading
should be less than the maximum load
(CTL60: 735 kg or 1620 lb. / CTL70: 945 kg
or 2083 lb. / CTL80: 1120 kg or 2470 lb.) and
should be done evenly.
Keep a safe distance from
electrical power lines
Never approach power lines with any part of
the machine and its load unless all local and
national required safety precautions have
been taken. Electrocution and death can
result from arcing, touching or even being
close to a machine that is in contact with or
near an electrical source.
¡Maintain the maximum possible distance
from power lines and never violate the
minimum clearance.
¡Always contact the nearest electric utility
and determine jointly what specific
precautions must be taken to insure safety.
¡Consider all lines to be power lines and
treat all power lines as energized even
though it is known or believed that the
power is shut off and the line is visibly
grounded.
¡Use a signal person to observe the
approach of any part of the machine or
load to the power line.
¡Caution all ground personnel to stand
clear of the machine and the load at all
times.
¡If the machine should come in contact with
a live electrical source, do not leave the
operator’s seat. Do not allow anyone to
approach or touch the machine.
¡Be especially careful of buried high voltage
power lines.
