SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING
Precautions on traveling and turning
• Traveling and turning should be performed
with the bucket cylinder fully retracted and
the bucket at a height of approximately 30
cm (12 in.) from the ground.
• Avoid sudden stops, starts and turns.
Otherwise, the working equipment may
come in contact with the ground, causing
the machine to lose its balance and get
damaged or to damage the structures in
the surrounding area.
• Do not raise the safety bar while traveling.
This is dangerous, because raising the
safety bar will cause the parking brakes of
the travel motors to operate and apply the
brakes abruptly.
• Do not switch off the ignition switch while
traveling. Doing so will cause sudden
braking and is dangerous.
• Before backing up, visually check for safety
to the rear. Backing up without checking
could result in contact with a worker or
obstacle.
• If the working equipment must be operated
while traveling, do so with extra care.
• When traveling on rough terrain or when
carrying a load, lower the load and travel
slowly.
• Avoid crossing over obstacles whenever
possible. If you must do so, keep the
bucket close to the ground level and travel
slowly. Never cross obstacles which will tilt
the machine to an angle of 10° or greater.
Safety precautions when performing the
DPF regeneration
The DPF may automatically perform the
regeneration while the engine is left running.
Make sure that there are no flammable items
around the DPF and the exhaust line, and
also that the engine hood is closed to
prevent fire. Be careful not to burn yourself
on the high-temperature exhaust gas.
DPF: Diesel Particulate Filter
