PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING ON
MACHINE
When carrying out maintenance operations on
the machine, keep the area around your feet
clean and tidy to prevent you from falling.
Always do the following;
•
Do not spill oil or grease.
•
Do not leave tools laying about.
•
Watch your step when walking.
Never jump down from the machine. When
getting on or off the machine, use the steps and
handrails, and maintain a three-point contact
(both feet and one hand or both hands and one
foot) to support yourself securely.
If the job requires it, wear protective clothing.
To prevent injury from slipping or falling, when
working on the hood or covers, never use any
part except the inspection passage fitted with
non-slip pads.
LOCK INSPECTION COVERS
When carrying out maintenance with the inspection cover open, lock the cover securely in position with the
lock bar.
If maintenance work is carried out with the inspection cover open but not locked, there is danger that it may
suddenly close and cause injury if there is a gust of wind.
CRUSHING PREVENTION AND CUTTING PREVENTION
You should always have at least two people working together if the engine must be run during service. One
person needs to remain in the operator’s seat, ready to work the controls or stop the machine and shut off
the engine.
Unless you are instructed otherwise, never attempt adjustments while the machine is moving or while the
engine is running.
Stay clear of all rotating parts and moving parts.
Keep objects away from moving fan blades. The fan blades will throw objects and the fan blades can cut
objects.
Do not use a wire rope cable that is kinked or flayed. Wear gloves when you handle a wire rope cable.
When you strike a retainer pin, the retainer pin might fly out. The loose retainer pin can injure personnel.
Make sure that the area is clear of people when you strike a retainer pin. To avoid injury to your eyes, wear
protective glasses when you strike a retainer pin.
DO NOT RUN ENGINE IF REPAIRS OR WORK ARE BEING PERFORMED ALONE
You should always have at least two people working together if engine must be run during service. One
person needs to remain in operator’s seat, ready to work controls or stop machine and shut "OFF" engine.
