1. BASIC PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY
◼
Do not operate the machine except from the operator's seat. Do not drive in a
standing posture.
◼
While making turns, do not run at abnormally high speed and do not turn the
steering wheel abruptly and sharply.
◼
For the traveling on structures such as a bridge, make certain that they can support
your machine. Before traveling on the structure, you must know the load capacity
of the structure and the load weight of the machine you are operating to insure safe
travel across the structure.
◼
Do not make turns on a slope and do not travel across sidehill. If necessary to do
so, go down straight along the slope to the flat ground, move sideways and go up
straight to the destination.
◼

Loading and unloading can accompany any
danger. Use extreme care.
•
Select level and hard ground leaving a sufficient
distance from the shoulder.

Use sturdy ramps with proper width, length and
thickness which allow safe loading and unloading.
If they deflect considerably under load, apply
wooden blocks to reinforce the ramps.
