CONTROLS and SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Become familiar with and know how to use all
safety devices and controls on the skid steer loader before
operating it. Know how to stop loader operation before starting it.
This Gehl loader is designed and intended to be used only with a
Gehl attachment or a Gehl-approved referral attachment or
accessory. Gehl cannot be responsible for operator safety if the
loader is used with a non-approved attachment.
Guards and Shields
Whenever possible and without affecting loader operation, guards and
shields are provided to protect against potentially hazardous areas. In many
places, safety decals are also provided to warn of potential hazards and/or to
display special operating procedures.
Read and thoroughly understand all safety
decals on the loader before operating it. Do not operate the loader
unless all factory-installed guards and shields are properly secured
in place.
Operator Restraint Bar
Lower the restraint bar after entering the
operator’s compartment. The restraint
bar is securely anchored to the ROPS.
The restraint bar switch and the seat
switch form an interlock for the lift arm,
tilt, drive and starter circuits (refer to the
“Safety Interlock System” topic on
page 16 for more information).
Never defeat the
operator restraint bar or seat
switch electrically or mechanically.
Always wear your seatbelt.
Operator’s Seat
The seat is mounted on rails for backward or forward repositioning. A
spring-loaded latch handle activates the seat adjustment mechanism.
Suspension seat (optional): A weight adjustment knob is provided with this
seat for operator comfort.
