2.5 General safety
Familiarize yourself with the operating in-
structions before the machine is put into
operation for the first time. Make sure that
you have any additional manuals in your
possession and have read and understood
them (these may be related to special
equipment on your machine).
Only persons explicitly authorized to do so
may operate, maintain or repair the ma-
chine. All such persons must be of the legal
minimum age.
Only trained personnel or those who have
undergone proper instruction may be de-
ployed. Personnel responsibilities for oper-
ating, fitting, maintaining and repairing the
machine must be clearly defined. Authorize
your personnel to ignore third-party instruc-
tions that contravene health and safety. This
also applies with regard to instructions con-
travening traffic regulations.
Personnel who are being trained, instructed
or are involved in a general training program
may only be allowed to work on the machine
under the supervision of an experienced
person.
Make checks at regular intervals to ensure
personnel are working in a safety-conscious
manner in compliance with the operating in-
structions.
Wear protective work clothing when you are
working on or with the machine. Rings,
wristwatches, ties, shawls, open jackets or
any other loose clothing should not be worn.
Otherwise there is a danger that clothing
may become stuck or caught in the ma-
chine. Protective goggles, protective boots,
helmets, gloves, reflective jackets, ear pro-
tection, etc. may be required for certain
tasks.
Ask the site supervisor about special safety
requirements.
Always fold up the left armrest before get-
ting out of the operator's seat.
When getting in and out, do not hold onto
the steering column, the operator control
panel or the operating levers. This could
cause inadvertent movements that could re-
sult in accidents.
Never jump off the machine. Instead use
the steps, ladders, and hand grips designed
for mounting and descending. Grab on with
both hands and face the machine.
The rear windshield acts as an emergency
exit.
