Working with the Machine

Operating Practices and Site Safety

T2-057_2

This section explains some techniques and procedures for
efficient and safe use of the machine and its attachments.
Attention is also drawn to the various safety aspects of
operating on site. 

Read and understand this section before you start working
with the machine.

Make sure that you have had adequate training and that
you are confident in your ability to operate the machine
safely before you use it. Practice using the machine and its
attachments until you are completely familiar with the
controls and what they do.

With a careful, well trained and experienced operator, your
machine is a safe and efficient machine. With an
inexperienced or careless operator, it can be dangerous.
Do not put your life, or the lives of others, at risk by using
the machine irresponsibly.

Before you start to work, tell your work mates what you will
be doing and where you will be working. On a busy site,
use a signalman.

Appropriate job site organisation is required in order to
minimise hazards that are caused by restricted visibility.
Job site organisation is a collection of rules and
procedures that coordinates machines and people that
work together in the same area. Examples of job site
organisation include:

– Restricted areas

– Controlled patterns of machine movement

– A system of communication

You and/or your company could be legally liable for any
damage you may  cause to public utilities. It is your
responsibility to make sure that you know the  locations of
any public utility cables or pipes on the site which could be
damaged  by your machine.

Before doing any job not covered in this manual, find out
the correct procedure. Your local JCB distributor will be
glad to advise you.

There are a wide variety of situations in which your
machine may be used. Consequently, in all cases, the

applicability of these notes must be determined by the
person seeking to apply them, on the basis of his/her own
judgement, in the light of the conditions in which use is
intended and subject to all relevant statutory requirements.

The information in this section is given in good faith and in
light of the best information available, JCB can accept no
responsibility for the recommendations, advice,
statements, opinions and conclusions expressly or by
implication and gives no warranty or representation of
assurance in respect of the accuracy of the same.

Remember that your machine is mobile. Whenever
possible, manoeuvre it into a position which combines
safety and efficiency. But if you have to choose, always
remember that: Safety must come first.

Clothing and Safety Equipment

T2-069

Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery that can get caught
on controls or moving parts. Wear protective clothing and
personal safety equipment issued or called for by the job
conditions, local regulations or as specified by your
employer.

Danger Zone

T2-046_2

The danger zone means any zone within and/or around
machinery in which a person is subject to a risk to his
health or safety. During operation of the machine, keep all
persons out of the danger zone. Persons in the danger
zone could be injured. Refer to 

Specifications.

Before performing maintenance tasks make the machine
safe. Refer to 

Make the Machine Safe.

Log Moving/Handling

T2-047

Do not use the machine to move or handle logs unless it
has been fitted with adequate log protection. You could
cause serious injury to yourself and damage the machine.
Contact your JCB dealer.
