Dangers to this equipment and other property
Tipping and toppling hazards due to high centre of gravity and obstacles during travel
CAUTION ! Tipping and toppling may cause damage to property.
This equipment's centre of gravity is relatively high. In the event the wheels jam and/or block
(due to an obstacle or transverse pull, for instance), there is a danger the equipment tips
over. Therefore:
– Keep potential obstacles out of the work area.
– Install cables and supply lines in such a way that they do not constitute a stumbling trap.
There is a danger the equipment rolls away because the wheels must not be blocked due to the
tipping and toppling hazard.
CAUTION ! Equipment rolling away may cause damage to property.
The wheels of the equipment must not be blocked because this would cause a tipping and
toppling hazard. On the other side, though, this detail causes and increases the danger the
equipment rolls away. Therefore:
– Be sure to operate this equipment only on a flat and even floor.
– Proceed with care when moving this equipment.
