SAFETY
Operating Precautions
Do not suddenly stop
or
lower the
working equipment
Sudden lowering or stopping
of
the working
equipment could cause the machine to tip
bowed forward.
Operate the working equipment carefully,
especially when the bucket
is
loaded.
Avoid overloading and off-center
loads
Filling the bucket
in
excess of the maximum
load and loading
an
off-center load will cause
the machine to become unstable and could
result
in
the machine tipping
over.
Loading
should be done
evenly,
should be less than
the: TL220: 565 kg (1246 lbs.); TL230: 835
kg
(1841
lbs.);
TL240: 945

Keep a safe distance from
electrical power lines
T7A029
Never approach power lines with any part
of
the machine and its load unless
all
local and
national required safety precautions have
been taken. Electrocution and death can
result from arcing, touching or even being
close to a machine that
is
in
contact with or
near
an
electrical source.
• Maintain the maximum possible distance
from power lines and never violate the
minimum clearance.
• Always contact the nearest electric
utility and determine jointly what specific
precautions must be taken to ensure
safety.
• Consider
all
lines to be power lines and
treat
all
power lines
as
energized, even if
it
is
known or believed that the power
is
shut off and the line
is
visibly grounded.
• Use a signal person to observe the
approach of any part of the machine or
load to the power line.
• Caution
all
ground personnel to stand
clear of the machine and the load at
all
times.
• If the machine should come
in
contact
with a live electrical source, do not leave
the operator's seat.
Do
not allow anyone
to approach or touch the machine.
•
Be
especially careful of buried high-
voltage power lines.
