7. WORKING AND SAFETY GUIDELINES
1) When working and carrying out inspections on the machine, wear appropriate cloth-
ing (overalls, gloves, helmet, safety shoes, fastened clothes, etc.), which have been
previously checked and approved by the site's safety manager. The machine should
be used in an adequately lit space.
2) Check that:
- the work area is adequately ventilated;
- there are no naked flames in the vicinity.
3) Never inspect the sewage tank alone. In the case of loss of balance or fainting due to
fumes, immediate assistance is required.
4) When you do not need to perform operations in the tank, it should remain covered.
5) Only suitably trained staff can use the machine and access the operating areas.
6) Do not perform repairs or adjustment operations when the machine is in operation or
when it is connected to the power supply.
7) The machine should only be used when all protective equipment is in place, follow-
ing the instructions identified in the above paragraphs in order to avoid contact with
moving parts. Do not damage or remove the protective equipment.
8) Never operate the machine without having filled the oil (transmission pipes and gear
units).
9) Prior to starting the work phases, ensure that the entire working unit (machine and
tractor) is stable.
10) During maintenance, ensure that the machine is completely at a standstill and dis-
connected from the power supply.
11) Do not use the truck for road transportation (if required).
12) During use, adjustment or maintenance, avoid the rubber parts of the machine
(gaskets, etc.) coming into contact with oil, grease or oil derivatives.
13) Ensure that the motor is rotating in a clockwise direction as indicated by the arrow
positioned on the motor (where appropriate).
14) For all electrically operated machines, the connection should be carried out in a loca-
tion protected from rainfall.
15) If the outlet is connected to pipes or hoses, check that the fixing joints are in perfect
condition; do not stand close to them.
16) Store the machine in a dry place, protected from rainfall, when not being used for
prolonged periods.
17) Never start the machine up under no-load conditions.
