1.1 GENERAL
1. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE INSTRUCTIONS AND
WARNINGS
This manual, the nameplates and labels on the machine provide the information required for correct and safe
operation of the machine. The user is responsible for reading and understanding the said information; failure
to do so may lead to serious injury. Do not leave anything you have failed to understand to chance. Your
reseller will provide any additional information you may require. If you lose or damage the manual,
nameplates or labels, your reseller will replace them.
2. CHECK THE MINIDUMPER
Before starting work, check the minidumper and make sure there are no persons or obstacles in your work
area. Before starting, carefully check the machine for signs of wear and defects.
3. HEALTH
Take special care of your mental and physical health and note that the operator of a complicated machine
should be PHYSICALLY FIT. NEVER operate the machine under the influence of alcohol, medicines or
drugs of any kind.
4. SNUG FITTING WORK CLOTHES
Your work clothing must be snug, without lose sleeves, rings or other jewelry, as they may become trapped
in moving parts. Always wear the necessary clothes and accessories, including: helmet, safety gloves, visible
clothing, safety boots and ear defenders.
5. BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE
Since all equipment is hydraulically operated, it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that the hydraulic fluid be at
temperature BEFORE you start working. while the fluid is heating up, the operator should check the
machine’s operation and whether it needs servicing. Remember; the basic principle of hydraulics is flow of
hydraulic fluid. If you hear a loud noise, this means that the pump is insufficiently lubricated due to cavitation,
often caused by the use of too heavy or dense oil. NEVER OPERATE THE MACHINE in such conditions; it
can seriously damage the pump.
6. MOVING PARTS
DO NOT approach moving parts. Do not hold anything close to moving parts. This may cause serious
accidents.
7. TAKE CARE IN THE VICINITY OF THE MACHINE’S HOT PARTS
Keep the engine away from buildings and other equipment during operation. Keep flammable materials away
and not place anything on the engine while it is running.
DO NOT touch the engine or exhaust when the machine is running or before it has had time to cool down.
These parts are very hot and cause serious burns.
