•
Never place any part of your body where it would be in danger if movement should occur
during assembly, installation, and operation, maintenance, repairing or moving.
•
Start the machine carefully according to instructions and with feet away from the moving parts.
•
Do not place your hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep away from any discharge
openings.
•
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents, hazards or unexpected
events involving the machine that occur to other people or their property. It is the responsibility of
the user to assess the potential risk of the area where work is being carried out. The operator or
user must take all necessary precautions to ensure their own safety and that of others, especially
on slopes or rough, slippery and unstable ground.
• Check your machine before starting it. Keep guards in place and in working order. Make
sure all nuts, bolts, etc., are securely tightened.
•
You must check the general condition of the machine before use.
•
Never operate the machine when it is in need of repair or is in poor mechanical condition.
Replace damaged, missing, or failed parts before using it. Check for fuel leaks. Keep the machine
in safe working condition.
•
Do not use the machine if the switch does not turn off the machine when running. Any machine
that can’t be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be replaced.
•
Regularly check to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from the machine area
before starting it. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the machine may
result in personal injury.
•
If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine and check immediately for the
cause. Vibration is generally a warning sign of trouble.
•
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the machine is off before transporting the machine or
performing any maintenance or service on the unit. Transporting or performing maintenance or
service on a machine with its switch on invites accidents.
