5 GENERAL SAFETY RULES
5.1 Rules concerning persons
¾ Always wear the prescribed personal safety devices.
¾ Always wear approved accident-prevention clothing such as: protective helmets, anti-slip shoes, protective gloves,
reflective jackets, breathing apparatus and protective glasses. Consult your employer regarding current safety
regulations and accident-prevention equipment.
¾ Do not wear rings, wristwatches, jewellery, loose-fitting or hanging clothing such as ties, torn garments, scarves,
unbuttoned jackets or unzipped overalls which could get caught up by parts in motion.
¾ Keep quickly and readily available on the truck a first-aid box and a fire extinguisher. The fire extinguisher must
always be kept charged and has to be used according to current regulations.
5.2 Rules concerning the crane
¾ The Manufacturer is not liable for accidents occurred when using the crane caused by non fulfilment from the
operator’s side of current rules, laws and regulations.
¾ The regular crane functioning is guaranteed within a temperature range between 0°C and +40°C. If temperature
drops under 0°C, it is essential to replace the oil in the whole circuit by a less viscous one, as indicated in the
suggested oil table.
¾ Carefully read the Operator’s and maintenance manual before commissioning, using, servicing or doing any thing
on the loader.
¾ Read and follow all safety instruction plates applied on the loader before starting up, using, servicing or doing any
thing on the loader.
¾ If the crane is provided with electrical devices, before operating the loader make sure that its voltage (12V) is same
as the vehicle one.
¾ Do not use controls and hoses as handholds: these parts move and cannot provide stable support.
¾ The operator’s control desk must always be kept clean from oil, grease, mud and snow to avoid accidents due to
slippery surfaces.
¾ The safety instruction plates, notices, load charts and any other sticker applied on the loader must be kept readable
and in good conditions. If necessary, replace them. The position of these plates is shown in pict. 5.
