6. Do not run the engine in closed or badly
ventilated rooms. Carbon monoxide is
colorless, odorless and deadly.

in place. Replace damaged or missing
safety device.
8. Precautions against tipping over. In order
to secure safe operation, keep away from
steep slopes and embankments. Do not
swing the bucket downwards. Lower the
dozer during digging. Keep the bucket as
low as possible while driving upwards.
Turn slowly on slopes (do not fast). Do
not keep the excavator near the edges of
trenches and banks, as the earth can
give away due to the weight of the
excavator.

excavator is being moved to. Keep an
eye out for hindrances.
10. Keep enough distance from trench and
bank edges.

to the presence of children. Children
generally are attached to machines and the
work they do.

under the watchful eye of another
responsible adult.

children enter the work area.

They may fall off and be run over or
interfere with your control of the
machine.
5. Never allow children to operate the
machine even under adult supervision.
6. Never allow children to play on the
machine or on the attachments.
7. Use extra caution when backing up. Look
behind and down to make sure the area
clear before moving.
8. When parking your machine, if at all
possible, park on a firm, flat and level
surface; if not, park across a slope. Lower
the bucket and dozer to the ground,

levers in the locked position from the
