Special duties of the owner
Owner of the machine in the sense of these operating instructions is any person or company which uses the ma-
chine itself or on whose order it is used. In special cases (e.g. leasing, rental), the owner is the person who must
perform the duties arising from operation according to the conditions of the contract between owner and user of
the machine.
The owner must ensure that the machine is only used properly and that any danger to the life and health of the
user or others who are in the proximity of the user are eliminated. Furthermore, observance of the safety rules and
regulations as well as the operating, maintenance and repair regulations must be ensured. The owner must make
sure that all operators and users have read and understood these operating instructions.
Persons who work with or on the machine must be provided by the operator with, and where applicable use suit-
able personal protective equipment (PPE), for example suitable working clothes, safety shoes, safety helmets, eye
protection, ear protection and air-filter masks. The owner/employer bears the main responsibility for the PPE,
which is specified by the safety rules for particular types of activity.
Waste such as old oil, fuel, hydraulic fluid, coolant and batteries comes under the category of toxic waste and can
be a hazard to the environment, people and animals.
Disposal must be undertaken in an appropriate way, according to legally prescribed pollution control and safety
regulations.
If you have questions about the correct disposal or storage of refuse and toxic waste, contact your KUBOTA dealer
or a local waste management contractor.
