Crushing Prevention and Cutting Prevention
Support the equipment properly when you work beneath the equipment. Do not
depend on the hydraulic cylinders to hold up the equipment. An attachment can fall
if a control is moved, or if a hydraulic line breaks.
Unless you are instructed otherwise, never attempt adjustments while the machine
is moving. Also, never attempt adjustments while the engine is running.
Whenever there are attachment control linkages, the clearance in the linkage area
will increase or the clearance in the linkage area will decrease with movement of
the attachment. Stay clear of all rotating and moving parts.
Keep objects away from moving fan blades. The fan blade will throw objects or cut
objects. Do not use a kinked wire cable or a frayed wire cable.
Wear gloves when you handle wire cable. When you strike a retainer pin with
force, the retainer pin can fly out. The loose retainer pin can injure personnel. Make
sure that the area is clear of people when you strike a retainer pin.
