Precautions for dismantling and installation
When dismantling or installing attachments, observe the following precautions for safety work.
Carry out dismantling and installation works on the flat and solid ground.
When a work is carried out by two workers or more, decide signals and let them obey the signals while working.
Use a crane for removing a heavy item (over 25 kg (55 lb)).
When detaching a heavy parts, be sure to prepare for a support beforehand.
Furthermore, when lifting up a heavy item with a crane, pay a special attention to the position of the center of gravity.
It is dangerous to proceed with the work with a heavy item hung up in the air with a crane. Be sure to provide a stand and lower
the heavy item on it to ensure safety during the work.
When leaving any attachment as detached or installing it, let it stand or hold it securely.
Do not go under a heavy item that is hung up in the air with a crane.
Keep well clear of a hung item and stay in a safe position to avoid an injury, should it fall off.
