3. Safety instructions for using the slurry mixer
Please bear in mind that safety is the result of several factors. The loader-attachment combination is highly
powerful and improper or careless use or maintenance may cause serious personal injury or property
damage. Due to this, all operators must carefully familiarise themselves about correct use and the operator's
manuals of both the loader and the attachment before starting operation. Do not use the attachment if you
have not completely familiarised yourself with its operation and the related hazards.
DANGER
Misuse, careless use, or using an attachment that is in poor condition, may
cause risk of serious injuries.
Familiarise yourself with the controls of the loader,
correct coupling procedure, and the correct way to operate the attachment at a safe
area. Study especially how to stop the equipment in a safe manner. Read all safety
precautions carefully.
Read all safety instructions carefully before handling the attachment
WARNING

When attaching an attachment to the loader, ensure that the locking pins of the
loader's quick attach plate are in the lower position and that they have locked
the attachment to the loader. Never lift or move an unlocked attachment.

The Slurry mixer is designed to be used by one operator at a time. Do not let others
near the danger area of the equipment when it is in use.

Always transport the attachment as low as possible to keep the centre of gravity low,
and keep the telescopic boom retracted during driving.

Hazard of entanglement - Rotating parts. Never leave the driver’s seat when the
attachment is running or if the auxiliary hydraulics control is locked on. Always keep a
safe distance between persons and machinery that may start or move. Stop the
equipment following the safe stopping procedure before leaving the driver’s seat, or
when other persons are present at the working area.

Keep hands and feet away from moving components. Wearing loose clothes, such as
loose shoelaces, or long scarves, should be avoided when working with the
attachment.

Stop the attachment by following the safe stopping procedure before going near the
attachment or the loader boom.

Always transport the attachment in transport position and support bracket locked, see
paragraph transport position. On slippery surfaces drive slowly and deliberately.
Operate the controls of the loader slowly and calmly especially on inclined terrain.

Do not leave the driver’s seat when the loader boom is lifted. Going under a raised
attachment or loader boom is dangerous. Always remember that the boom may lower
due to loss of stability, mechanical fault, or if another person operates the controls of
the loader.

Use the attachment only for its intended use and only with original tools on the
attachment.
