First read the safety rules for operating, see pages
83
,
84
,
85
, and
87
.
Always prepare work by carefully studying
drawings and regulations that apply to the site.
Also study the ground conditions and what the
risk areas on the site look like. Turn off gas,
electricity and water supplies, if this is necessary.
Mark the position of cables and pipes.
Fence off the area around the machine, if there is
a risk that people may get too close. Pay attention
to a swinging machine.
Look after your workmates! Make sure that they
take care. No persons, apart from the operator,
may be present within the working area of the
machine. Teach them to be on their guard against
collapsing banks and rolling stones and to be
prepared to dash for safety. Changes in stress in
a bank immediately prior to a landslip are
indicated by small streams of loose material just
where the cracks are forming.
If the machine is provided with optional
equipment, which is operated with the pedals, the
operator must assure him or her self of that the
anticipated movements are obtained when
actuating the pedals. An unexpected movement
may entail risk of an accident.
Never swing the bucket or load above people.
Never use the bucket for chopping.
If uncontrolled movements should occur, first
release levers and pedals, then shut off the
engine immediately by turning the ignition switch
to the stop position.
If red warning lamps light up and/or the buzzer is
sounding, the engine must be stopped
immediately and the cause investigated.
The machine must not be equipped with a larger
bucket/attachment than permitted.
