Accidental severing of underground cables or gas lines
may cause an explosion and/or fire, possibly resulting in
serious injury or death.

Before digging check the location of cables, gas lines,
and water lines.
•
Keep the minimum distance required, by law, from ca-
bles, gas lines, and water lines.

do not look into the end. Doing so may result in seri-
ous eye injury.
•

AVOID POWER LINES
x
Serious injury or death can result if the machine or front
attachments are not kept a safe distance from electric
lines.
•
When operating near an electric line, NEVER move
any part of the machine or load closer than 3 m plus
twice the line insulator length.
•
Check and comply with any local regulations that may
apply.
•
Wet ground will expand the area that could cause any
person on it to be affected by electric shock. Keep all
bystanders or co-workers away from the site.
