4. OPERATION RELATED PRECAUTIONS
4.1 BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
ESTABLISH SAFETY OF WORKSITE
• Confirm that no danger is present at the worksite before
starting work.
• Investigate the ground and road surface condition of the
worksite and decide the best working method.
• When working on an inclined ground, flatten the inclination
of the work site before starting work. Also, if sand and gravel
are excessive, spray water before work.
• When working over the roadway, enforce “keep out” by, for
instance, assigning guides or surrounding the site by
barriers, and ensure the safety of the traffic vehicles and
pedestrians.
• Enforce “keep out” to prevent people from entering the
worksite and apply measures to prevent people from
approaching.
Attempt to approach the moving Machine may result in
pinching or hard collision by contact, and may result in
serious accidents and deaths.
• When travelling in the water or crossing over shallow water,
check the ground condition, depth and water velocity
beforehand and make sure not to exceed the allowable
water depth (no higher than centre of idler
(1) ).
See “OPERATION 2.12 [2] ALLOWABLE WATER
DEPTH”.
INSPECTION BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
Execute the following inspections before the first engine
start-up of the day.
Omitting these inspections may result in serious bodily
accidents.
• Inspect for the fuel/oil leak, accumulation of combustibles
around the engine and battery systems, and similar
potential problems.
See “OPERATION 2.1 PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION”.
• Inspect the quantity of fuel, cooling water, and hydraulic oil
tank, air cleaner blockage, electrical wiring damage, and
check operations of safety devices and instruments.
See “OPERATION 2.1 PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION”.
• Make sure the operation levers are at neutral position.
Check that the operation linkages operate adequately.
• When using the remote controller, perform operations
carefully upon fully understanding what actions you let it do.
• When an operator operates the remote control system,
he/she may mistake the operating direction of the control
section of the transmitter depending on the standing
position and visibility angle with respect to the system.
Always check in advance to avoid a mistake of the operating
direction of the system.
• Before starting to operate the remote control system, check
that no personnel are under a hoisted load or in the vicinity
and perform operations safely.
Always repair if any result of the above is faulty.
