GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
2.17
Do not tamper or remove the plates and safety devices installed on the machine.
Tampering with the safety devices and failure to comply with the signs relieves the manufacturer from
liability for any damage or injury that may be caused and attributes full responsibility of the person carrying
out the actions in respect of the relevant entities.
The driver cabin is approved in accordance with the following standards:
ISO 3449-2005 (FOPS = falling-object protective structure)
ISO 3471-2008 (ROPS = roll-over protective structure).
ISO-6055:2004 – 3.4.2
ISO-6055:2004 – 3.4.3
ANSI/ITSDF B56.6 – 2016 8.16.3.(b)
ANSI/ITSDF B56.6 – 2016 8.16.3.(c)
If the machine that is being manoeuvred is about to tip over, remain inside the cabin for the best
protection.
It is important for the safety belts to always be kept fastened to avoid being thrown out of the machine or
being crushed in case of tipping over. The safety belt is adjusted correctly when it is positioned on your
pelvis without causing particular discomfort while driving. Using the safety belt increases the sense and
level of operator safety by reducing the risk of accidents.
The back window is an emergency exit in all cabin models. ONLY IF NECESSARY, simply remove the red
retention on the compass opening handle of the window by firmly grasping the ring at one end and pulling
it downward.
Once the retainer is removed, simply push the window for it to open completely.
The area under the boom may need to be accessed for maintenance purposes, in which case, make sure
the boom cannot drop from its position, not even accidentally. For this purpose, a special metal block is
supplied on each machine, which is to be placed manually on the lifting cylinder rod, secured with screws
with a hand wheel on the rear side of the machine behind the driver cabin.
Strictly comply with the instructions to position the block defined below:
o
Remove the block on the rear of the driver cabin with the two specific bolts supplied with the
machine
o
Lift the boom to a height where the cylinder rod is slightly longer than the locking device.
o
Climb onto the central bridge of the machine while paying attention not to step on the areas
marked with the prohibitions and place the blocking device on the cylinder rod
o
Insert the two screws in the two end holes and block them in place with the relevant nuts. This
prevents the blocking device from moving out of position
o
Once it is used and maintenance is completed, remove the block and put it back in the same spot it
was taken from.
