SAFETY
Excavators are not designed for lifting
loads
This machine is specifically designed for
excavation work. Therefore, it has no safety
equipment for crane operation. Extreme
caution should be paid if the excavator is
used for lifting.
• Never lift loads in excess of capacity.
Overload will cause the machine to roll and
can result in serious injury or death.
• All rated lift capacities are determined by
using a machine placed on a stable and flat
ground. For a safe lifting work, the user is
expected to make due allowance for the
particular job conditions. They include, soft
or uneven ground, non-level condition, side
loads, dynamic or jerked loads, hazardous
conditions, and experience of personnel.
The operator and other personnel should
fully acquaint themselves with the
operator’s manual before operating this
machine, and rules for safe operation of
equipment shall be adhered to at all times.
• The bucket linkage or lifting device may fail
if chains or lifting device are incorrectly
attached, resulting in serious injury or
death.
• Do not attempt to pull stumps out of the
ground when using the machine as a
crane. The loads imposed on the machine
under this use are completely unknown.
• Do not allow anyone to stand on or under
the lifted loads or come close to the work
area.
