Fire extinguisher and first aid kit
 A functional fire extinguisher has to be available and within
reach.
 If, in the course of certain operations, there is danger of fire,
fire extinguishers must be made available as a precaution.
Familiarise yourself with the use of the fire extinguishers.
 Inform yourself on how to proceed in the event of a fire.
 The first-aid kit can be stored under the right armrest.
 Make sure that you know all telephone numbers of the per-
sons that you need to contact in case of an emergency.
Safety features
 Be sure that all guards and covers are in their proper position.
Ensure that guards and covers are repaired immediately if
they are damaged.
 Understand the method of use of safety features and use
them properly.
 Never remove any safety features. Always keep them in good
operating condition.
Keeping the machine clean
 If water enters the electrical system, there is a hazard that it
will cause unexpected and erratic machine behaviour during
operation. Do not use water or steam to wash the electrical
system (sensors, connectors).
 If inspection and maintenance is carried out when the
machine is still dirty with mud or oil, there is a hazard that you
will slip and fall, or that dirt or mud will get into your eyes.
Always keep the machine clean.
