WARNING To prevent possible personal injury during installation and removal of the
laser receivers, lower the mast to the minimum height and use an approved access system
to reach the mounting locations of the laser receivers at the top of the mast. Do not climb on
the machine.
WARNING Do not operate this system unless you are fully trained on this equipment. To
avoid injury, the machines park brake must be engaged prior to starting the calibration.
Maintain adequate clearance from people and objects as the blade may move abruptly
during automatic hydraulic valve calibration.
WARNING If the machines direction is locked, for example if it is locked in the forward
direction, the distance to avoidance zones will be calculated incorrectly when you are driving
in the opposite direction, resulting in unreliable avoidance zone warnings. Entering an
avoidance zone could cause personal injury or damage to the machine. Always be aware of
nearby avoidance zones when operating a machine with direction lock on.
WARNING In order to prevent personal injury during installation and removal of a GNSS
receiver or a UTS target, use an approved access system in order to reach the mounting
locations of the GNSS receiver or UTS target at the top of the mast.
WARNING Do not stare into the laser beam when the laser transmitter is operating. For
more information, refer to the documentation that came with your laser.
WARNING Falling Hazard. Do not climb onto the machine in order to access the GNSS
receiver or UTS target. Climbing on the machine could result in a fall which could cause
serious injury or death. Use the raise and lower mechanism to access the GNSS receiver or
UTS target for all required maintenance and service.
WARNING When the cutting edge is not in operation, leaving it in the air could cause
injury to you or others, or cause damage to the machine. Always place the cutting edge on
the ground when it is not in use.
WARNING Accidental engine starting can cause injury or death to personnel working on
the equipment. To avoid accidental engine starting, disconnect the battery cable from the
negative (–) battery terminal. Completely tape all metal surfaces of the disconnected battery
cable end in order to prevent contact with other metal surfaces which could activate the
engine electrical system. Place a Do Not Operate tag at the Start/Stop switch location to
inform personnel that the equipment is being worked on.
WARNING The cutting edge may move abruptly during hydraulic valve calibration. To
avoid injury, make sure the machine's park brake is engaged and the calibrations are
supervised by an operator in the machine cab. Maintain adequate clearance from people
and objects during the hydraulic valve calibration.
