SAFETY
The above safety alert symbol means
ATTENTION! BE ALERT! SAFETY IS
INVOLVED!
It stresses an attitude of “safety
awareness” and can be found throughout this
operator’s manual and on the paver.
Before operating the paver, read and study the
following safety information. In addition,
anyone who operates or works with the paver
must be familiar with these safety precautions.
Gehl Company always takes operator’s safety into
consideration during the design process. Guards
and shield are provided, protecting the operator
and bystanders from moving parts or other hazards.
Owners and operators must be alert, however,
because some areas cannot be guarded or shielded
without preventing or interfering with proper
operation. Additionally, this operator’s manual and
decals on the paver warn of additional hazards and
should be read and observed closely.
DANGER
“DANGER” indicates an imminently hazardous
situation that, if not avoided, will result in death
or serious injury.
WARNING
“WARNING” indicates a potentially hazardous
situation that, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
CAUTION
“CAUTION” indicates a potentially hazardous
situation that, if not avoided, may result in
minor injury or property damage. It also alerts
users to unsafe practices.
REMEMBER: It is the owner’s responsibility to
communicate information about the safe use and
proper maintenance of the paver! This includes
providing understandable interpretations of these
instructions for operators who are not fluent in
reading English.
Pavers should be operated only by qualified
operators. It is the responsibility of the operator to
read and understand this operator’s manual and to
follow correct operating procedures.
MANDATORY SAFETY
SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE
BEFORE cleaning, adjusting, lubricating or
servicing the paver:
1.
Bring paver to full stop on a level surface.
NEVER park on a slope or hillside, but if it
is not possible to avoid, park across the
slope and block the tracks at both ends.
2.
Place all controls in neutral.
3.
Move the throttle to low idle.
4.
Shut off the engine and remove the key.
5.
Lower the hopper and screed assembly to
the “full down” position. Allow the screed
to cool before lowering for transport.
ONLY when you have taken these precautions
can you be sure it is safe to proceed. Failure to
follow the above procedure could lead to death
or serious injury.
Safety Reminders
•
User/operator safety practices are included in

guidelines do not preclude the use of good
judgment, care and common sense as indicated
by the specific jobsite work conditions.
•
It is essential that operators be physically and
mentally fit and free of mind-altering drugs
and chemicals.
