machine or working equipment, always
use wood blocks, jack-stands or other
rigid and stable supports. Never get
under the machine or working

If maintenance must be performed with
the engine running, always work as a
two person team communicating each
other.

seat so that he/she can immediately
stop the engine when necessary. He/
she must take care not to touch the
lever or pedal unless necessary.
· The one who performs maintenance
must make sure to keep his/her body
or clothing away from the moving part
of the machine.
