the type of attachment or option, it may be necessary to install a front guard, overhead guard, or other safety
structure to the machine. There may also be problems of the attachment or option hitting the operator's cab.

Install only attachments or options authorized by Komatsu. Komatsu cannot accept any responsibility for any ac-
cident, damage, or failure caused by the use of attachments or options not authorized by Komatsu.
6.1.2 READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL THOROUGHLY
q
Before installing or using any attachment or option, make sure that you thoroughly read and understand the in-
struction manuals for the machine and the attachment or option.

If you lose the instruction manual or it is damaged, always obtain an new copy from the attachment manufacturer
or your Komatsu Distributor.

When removing or installing the attachment or option, obey the following precautions, and take care to ensure
safety during the operation.
q
Carry out the removal and installation operation on a flat, firm ground surface.
q
When the operation is carried out by two or more workers, choose the leader and follow his instructions.
q
Use a crane when handling heavy objects (more than 25 kg). (The crane must be operated by a qualified opera-
tor.)
q
Never go under a load raised by the crane.
q
Do not carry out operations with the load kept raised by the crane. Always use a stand to prevent the load from
falling.

When removing a heavy part, consider the balance after it is removed. To prevent the machine from tipping over,
set a support in position if necessary before removing the part.
q
Before installing or after removing the attachment or option, set it in a stable condition to prevent it from falling
over.
