Komatsu HB215LC-3, Operation & Maintenance Manual

Page: 47 / 492

• The machine weight will not exceed ROPS certified value as long as the optional attachments written in the
attachment combination table of this manual are installed. When installing optional parts or attachments
which are not written in this manual, the machine weight must not exceed ROPS certified value. Always
contact your Komatsu distributor before installing.
• Installing some work equipment combinations may cause interference and damage with the cab or other
parts of the machine during operation and could cause serious personal injury or death. Before using unfa-
miliar work equipment, always check for potential interference while operating the machine. Always ensure
the operator's safety when working with unfamiliar work equipment.
• When installing and using optional attachments, always read the instruction manual for the attachment, and
the general information related to attachments in this manual.
PRECAUTIONS RELATED TO CAB GLASS
• If the cab glass is broken during operations, stop operations and repair the cab glass immediately.
• If the cab glass on the work equipment side is broken, there is a hazard that the operator may be directly hit
or caught in the work equipment. If the glass is broken, stop operation immediately and replace the glass.
• The ceiling window is made of plastic, so if it is scratched, the visibility will become poor and there is danger
that it may break. If the ceiling window is scratched, replace it with the new one as soon as possible. If the
ceiling window is scratched and is not replaced, there is a danger that any rocks falling on it will cause it to
break, leading to injury to the operator.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN RUNNING ENGINE INSIDE BUILDING
The engine exhaust gas contains substances that may damage
your health or even cause death. Start or operate the engine in
a place where there is good ventilation. If the engine or ma-
chine must be operated inside a building or underground,
where the ventilation is poor, take steps to ensure that the en-
gine exhaust gas is removed and that ample fresh air is
brought in.
