• Be especially careful when reversing and watch the
area behind the loader carefully before starting to
drive.
• When parking your machine if at all possible, park
on a firm, flat, and level surface. If not, park across
a slope. Set the parking brake, lower the
implements to the ground, remove the starter key
from the ignition, and chock the wheels.
1. Safety for children
Serious accidents can occur if the operator does not
pay attention to children in the vicinity of the machine.
Children are unpredictable.
• Always keep an eye on children because they
change their location continuously.
• Make sure that no children are within the working
range of the machine.
• Be extremely cautious when children approach the
working area. Stop working, if necessary.
• Do not carry children on the machine.
• Do not allow children to operate the machine.
• Do not allow children to play around the machine.
PRECAUTIONS FOR
TRAVELING
• Before traveling on the public road, follow all local
and state-traffic-regulations.
•
Traveling on the public road
Please note the following points:
– Raise the lift arm.
– Fully tilt the bucket.
– Lock the control lever and the auxiliary-port-
lever by pressing the control-lever-lock-knob
and the auxiliary-port-lever-lock-knob.
• When traveling on a public road, lock the bucket
and attachments securely so that they cannot
lower, even if any control lever is operated. Lift the
bucket about 40 cm above the ground and set it in
the proper position for travel, then lock the control
lever.
• First check the area around the machine, then
gradually increase the engine rpm and slowly move
the machine. Do not move the machine abruptly. To
move the machine on a steep slope, press the
accelerator pedal gradually while releasing the
inching and brake pedal so that the machine does
not move backwards.
• The steering wheel for this machine will not return
to the starting position after turning a bend. Be sure
to turn the wheel to the starting position by yourself.
• When operating the machine, obey all safety
signals and traffic signs.
• Use the brake when the machine begins to
accelerate by itself.
• If the engine should stall on a slope, apply the
brake to hold the machine in a present position and
then set the parking brake switch to the parking
position, lower the bucket to the ground to prepare
for the next start.
• When operating over an obstacle such as a rock,
cross slowly at a right angle. Trying to cross over
obstacle diagonally or at high speed may tip the
machine over.
• If there is the risk of the machine slipping
excessively on frozen ground, install chains on the
front wheels. For operation on snow, install the
chains on both front and rear wheels or change into
winter tires.
• Do not turn sharply at high speed, or the machine
may tip over.
• Steering effort will increase if the engine stops. Do
not stop the engine during travel.
• If a tire has blown, the machine may slip or turn
over. If a tire blows, do not brake or steer hard,
brake slowly to stop the machine gradually.
1. Operating the engine at
overheating
Take the proper actions in this section in the event
which the coolant temperature increases too much.
The condition which the coolant temperature increases
too much is called
“Overheating”
.
1. Park the machine in a safe place and keep the
engine unloaded idling.
2. Do not stop the engine suddenly, but stop it after
about 5 minutes of unloaded idling.
3. Keep yourself well away from the machine for a
further 10 minutes or while the steam blows out.
4. When there is no longer any danger of scalding, try
to find the cause of overheating according to the
manual, see TROUBLESHOOTING OF THE
ENGINE AND OTHER SYSTEMS on page 99 and
then start again the engine.
PRECAUTIONS AFTER
OPERATION OF THE WHEEL
LOADER
• When getting off the machine, always stop the
engine, follow the following procedure.
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Lower the bucket and attachment to the ground.
3. Release the hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic
system by operating the control levers.
(For details, see RELEASING THE PRESSURE
TRAPPED IN THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM on
page 51)
4. Lock all control levers in neutral.
