SAFETY
26
WARNING: For reasons of safety, always follow these safety precautions.
PROTECTION AGAINST FALLING OR FLYING OBJECTS
If there is any danger of falling or flying objects hitting the opera-
tor, install protective guards to protect the operator as required for
each particular situation.
●
For work with breakers, install a front guard on the wind-
shield. Also, place a laminate coating sheet over the wind-
shield.
●
For demolition or shear work, install a front guard on the
windshield and a top guard on the cab. Also, place a laminate
coating sheet over the windshield.
●
For work in mines, quarries, demolition, tunnels or other
places where there is danger of falling rocks, put FOPS (fall-
ing object protective structure) in place. Also, place a lami-
nate coating sheet over the windshield.
The above comments are made with regards to typical working
conditions. By all means you should put on other guards if
required by conditions at your particular site.
For details of safety guards, please contact your Komatsu distrib-
utor.
Also, even for other types of work, if there is any danger of being
hit by falling or flying objects or of objects entering the operator’s
cab, select and install a guard that matches the working condi-
tions.
Be sure to close the front window before commencing work.
When carrying out the above operations, make sure to keep all
persons other than the operator outside the range of falling or fly-
ing objects. Be particularly sure to maintain a proper distance
when carrying out shear operations.

instruction manual for the attachment and the information
related to attachments in this manual.

of unauthorised attachments will not be the responsibility of
Komatsu.
