1. Safety precautions
Throughout this book the symbol is used to draw your
attention to areas where special care is required, to prevent
accidents and injury.
• Construction sites are busy places, often with wet, muddy
ground, conditions which impede other workers ability to
avoid carelessly driven machinery. Skid-steers are designed
to be highly manoeuvrable and compact in operation. They
are rugged and can be operated under a variety of
conditions, and the operator may be presented with hazards
associated with operating this machine.
•
Be vigilant and “think safety”.
• DO NOT operate this machine unless you have been
properly instructed on its control and safe operation.
• These operating instructions are designed to familiarise the
user with the machine and its designated use. The instruction
manual contains important information on how to operate the
machine safely, properly and most efficiently. Observing
these instructions help to avoid danger, to reduce repair
costs and down-time and to increase the reliability and life of
the machine.
• The operating instructions must always be available
wherever the machine is in use. These operating instructions
must be read and applied by any person in charge of carrying
out work with and on the machine, such as:
– care and disposal of fuels and consumables.
– maintenance (servicing, inspection, repair) and/or
transport.
• In addition to the operating instructions and to the mandatory
rules and regulations for accident prevention and
environmental protection in the country and place of use of
the machine, the general recognised technical rules for safe
and proper working must also be observed.
