SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Keep children out of the working area while operating
or driving the machine.
Do not stand, walk or work under a raised backhoe or
attachment unless it is securely blocked or held in
position. Accidental movement of a control lever or
leak in the hydraulic system could cause the backhoe
to drop, or attachment to dump, causing severe
injury.
Contact with overhead power lines can cause severe
electrical burn or death from electrocution. Make sure
there is enough clearance between raised equipment
and overhead power lines.
Add recommended rear tire liquid weight or rear
wheel weights for increased stability.
A backhoe attachment should be transported in a low
position at slow ground speeds. Make turns slowly
and use the tractor brakes cautiously. A loaded
attachment in the raised position alters the center of
gravity location of the machine and increases the
possibility of mishaps.
Never allow children to operate the machine even
when the engine is turned off or under adult
supervision.
Pay extra caution when driving approach to the blind
corners, small rocks, trees or other ubstructions
where children may hide.
Turn off the machine immidiatly when children enter
the working area.
Make sure all parked backhoe on stands are on a
hard level surface with all safety devices engaged to
prevent backhoe from falling and being damaged or
injuring someone.
When using a backhoe, be alert of bucket, boom and
dipper stick(arm) position at all times.
CHILDREN SAFETY
It may result tragic accidents if the operator works
without aware of presence of children. Children are
generally well attracted to machines and their work.
Operator should pay attention to children's moving
while working or driving the machine. Stop the
machine immidiatly if children move.
Travel speed should be such that complete control
and machine stability is maintained at all times.
Where possible, avoid operation near ditches,
embankments and holes. Reduce speed when
turning, crossing slopes, and on rough, slick or
muddy surfaces.
Never use your hand to check for suspected leaks
under pressure. Use a piece of cardbord or wood for
this purpose. Escaping hydraulic oil or diesel fuel
leaking under pressure can have sufficient force to
penetrate the skin and cause infection or other injured
by leaking fluid, seek medical attention immediately.
To prevent personal injury, relieve all pressure before
disconnecting fluid lines.
Before applying hydraulic pressure, make sure all
hydraulic connections are tight and components are
in good condition.
Never carry children on the machine eventhough in
machine's seat while working or driving. Children may
fall off and result in serious injury and it may interfere
with safe operation of the machine.
Check behind and down for children before/when
driving the machine backward.
Never allow children to play on the machine or
equipment even when the engine is off.
