Avoid contact with gas lines, buried cables and water
lines. Call utility line location services to identify all
underground utilities before you dig.
Prepare work site properly
. Avoid operating near
structures or objects that could fall onto the machine.
Clear away debris that could move unexpectedly if run
over.
Avoid boom or arm contact with overhead obstacles
or overhead electrical lines.
Never move any part of
machine or load closer than 3 m (10 ft) plus twice the line
insulator length to overhead wires.
Keep bystanders clear at all times.
Use barricades or a
signal person to keep vehicles and pedestrians away. Use
a signal person if moving machine in congested areas or
where visibility is restricted. Always keep signal person in
view. Coordinate hand signals before starting machine.
Operate only on solid footing
with strength sufficient to
support machine. When working close to an excavation,
position travel motors away from the hole.
Reduce machine speed
when operating with tool on or
near ground when obstacles may be hidden (e.g., during
snow removal or clearing mud, dirt, etc.). At high speeds
hitting obstacles (rocks, uneven concrete or manholes)
can cause a sudden stop. Always wear your seatbelt.
