contact (both feet and one hand, or both hands and one
foot) with the handrails and steps to ensure that you sup-
port yourself.

and steps if there is any oil, grease, or mud on them. Wipe
it off immediately not to slip if any. In addition, tighten any
loose bolt of the handrails and steps.

need to be repaired immediately. Ask your Komatsu dis-
tributor to perform this work.
