Safety
The safety rules and regulations in this section are
representative of some, but not all rules and
regulations noted under the Occupational Safety
and Health Act (OSHA) and are paraphrased
without representation that the OSHA rules and
regulations have been reproduced verbatim.
Please refer to 1910. 178 in Federal Register Vol.
37, No. 202, the National Fire Protection
Association No. 505 (NFPA), American National
Standard, ANSI B56. 1 Safety Standard for Low lift
and High Lift Trucks and subsequent revisions for a
complete list of OSHA rules and regulations as to
the safe operation of powered industrial lift trucks.
Since regulations vary from country to country
outside in U.S.A., operate this lift truck in
accordance with local regulations.
DAEWOO lift trucks are manufactured according to
the regulations and standards laid down in EU
Machinery Directive 98/37/EC and EMC directive
89/336/EC. Please refer to the Directives
89/655/EC and 89/391/EC and its amendments for
the safe use of DAEWOO lift trucks.
The most effective method of preventing serious
injury or death to the lift truck operator or others is
for the lift truck operator to be familiar with the
proper operation of the lift truck, to be alert and to
avoid actions or conditions which can result in an
accident.
Do not operate a lift truck if in need of repair,
defective or in any way unsafe. Report all defects
and unsafe conditions immediately. Do not attempt
any adjustments or repairs unless trained and
authorized to do so.
Warning Signs and Labels
There are several specific safety signs on your lift
truck. Their exact location and description of the
hazard are reviewed in this section. Please take the
time to familiarize yourself with these safety signs.
Make sure that you can read all warning and
instruction labels. Clean or replace these labels if
you cannot read the words or see the pictures.
When cleaning the labels use a cloth, water and
soap. Do not use solvent, gasoline, etc.
You must replace a label if it is damaged, missing
or cannot be read. If a label is on a part that is
replaced, make sure a new label is installed on the
replaced part. See your dealer for new labels.
