clothes before leaving the worksite to reduce
exposure of dust and fumes to yourself, other
persons, cars, homes, and other areas.
►
Avoid eating, drinking, and using tobacco
products in areas where there is dust or fumes.
►
Wash your hands and face thoroughly as soon as
possible upon leaving the exposure area, and
always before eating, drinking, using tobacco
products, or making contact with other persons.

►
Work with your employer and trade organization
to reduce dust and fume exposure at the worksite
and to reduce the risks. Effective health and safety
programs, policies and procedures for protecting
workers and others against harmful exposure to
dust and fumes must be established and
implemented based on advice from health and
safety experts. Consult with experts.
DANGER
Exhaust gas hazard
The exhaust gas from the machine’s combustion
engine contains carbon monoxide which is
poisonous, and chemicals known to the State of
California and other authorities to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. Inhalation of
exhaust fumes can cause serious injury, illness, or
death.
►
Never inhale exhaust fumes.
►
Ensure good ventilation (extraction of air by fan
if necessary).
WARNING
Battery hazard
The battery contains poisonous and corrosive
sulphuric acid and can explode, this can cause injury.
►
Never expose the battery to naked flames, sparks,
strong heat, or anything else where there is a risk
of explosion.
►
Avoid getting acid on your skin, clothes or on the
machine.
►
Wear protective glasses to avoid getting acid in
your eyes, if you get acid in your eyes rinse them
with water for at least 15 minutes and seek
immediate medical treatment.
►
Never short-circuit the battery poles when fitting
or replacing the battery.
WARNING
Projectiles
Failure of the work piece, of accessories, or even of
the machine itself may generate high velocity
projectiles. During operating, splinters or other
particles from the compacted material may become
projectiles and cause personal injury by striking the
operator or other persons. To reduce these risk:
►
Use approved personal protective equipment and
safety helmet, including impact resistant eye
protection with side protection.
►
Make sure that no unauthorised persons trespass
into the working zone.
►
Keep the workplace free from foreign objects.
WARNING
Hydraulic system hazard
Hydraulic hoses are made of rubber and can
deteriorate with age, with the consequent risk of
splitting. This can cause injuries.
►
Maintain the hydraulic system regularly.
►
Whenever there are uncertainties as to durability
and wear, replace hoses with new original hoses.
WARNING
Slope hazards
During operation, secure the machine so it can not
fall if it is placed on a sloping ground. A fall can lead
to severe accidents and result in personal injury.
►
Always ensure that all personnel in the working
area are higher up the slope than the machine.
►
Always operate the machine straight up and down
when placed on slopes.
►
Never exceed the maximum recommended slope
angle when operating the machine. Follow the
recommendations.
