FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND FIRST AID KIT
As a precaution if any injury or fire should occur,
always do the following.
• Be sure that fire extinguishers have
been provided and read the labels to
ensure that you know now to use
them. It is recommended that an
appropriately sized (2.27 kg [5 lb] or
larger) multipurpose "A/B/C" fire
extinguisher be mounted in the cab.
Check and service the fire
extinguisher at regular intervals and
make sure that all work site crew
members are adequately trained in
its use.
• Provide a first aid kit in the storage compartment and keep another at the work site. Check the
kit periodically and make any additions if necessary.
• Know what to do in case of injury from fire.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance service, hospital and fire department near
your telephone.
If the machine catches fire, it may lead to serious personal injury or death. If a fire occurs during operation,
escape from the machine as follows;
• Turn the starter switch "OFF" and shut down engine.
• If there is time, use the fire extinguisher to extinguish as much of the fire as possible.
• Use the handrails and steps to escape from the machine.
The above is the basic method for escaping from the machine, but changing the method may be necessary
according to the conditions, so carry out practice drills at the work site.
PROTECTION FROM FALLING OR FLYING OBJECTS
On work sites where there is danger that falling objects or flying objects may hit the operator's cab select a
guard to match the operating conditions to protect the operator.
Working in mines, tunnels, deep pits or on loose
or wet surfaces could produce danger of falling
rock or hazardous flying objects. Additional
protection for the operator's cab could be
required in the form of a FOPS (Falling Object
Protective Structure) or window guards.
