Operating on Hillsides
• Operating on side slopes can cause water to get into your steam.
• The DewPoint is a heavy machine, and significant side slopes could cause the machine to slide or tip.
• Ensure that brakes are functioning properly before taking the DewPoint up or down steep slopes.
Safety Lighting
The DewPoint has all proper safety, hazard and signal lighting installed. Check that all lights are functioning
properly before each use.
Electricity Overhead
Ensure that the DewPoint will not interfere with overhead power lines. Hitting power lines with the DewPoint
can cause serious damage to you, your equipment, and/or others.
Personal Protective Equipment
When operating or servicing the DewPoint, ensure that you use all proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
PPE includes but is not limited to, proper footwear, gloves, eye protection and ear protection.
Persons on DewPoint
• Never operate the DewPoint while others are on or under the machine.
• Ensure that stepping and standing only happens in designated safe areas.
• DO NOT step or climb areas specifically marked prohibited. Doing so can cause serious injury or death.
• Use caution when standing on the deck of the machine - especially if deck is wet.
• DO NOT operate with children near the machine. Ensure that all children are kept at a safe distance.
Shields, Guards & Door
• All shields and guards are in place for a reason. Never operate the machine with shields or guards displaced
or removed.
• Never attempt to operate the machine with the boiler door removed.
Exhaust and Fumes
Never operate the DewPoint in confined spaces. The generator and burner generate toxic gases. Operation and
maintenance should only happen in well-ventilated areas.
Chemicals
Use chemicals according to instructions attached to their containers. Using them improperly can be very
dangerous. If no longer needed, ensure that excess chemicals are disposed of properly.
Traveling on Public Roads
When traveling on public roads, obey all local traffic laws. Before traveling on any public roads (or any roads
when you will be traveling at higher rates of speed) make sure that trailer brakes are working properly
Never Allow the Boiler to Run Dry
If the low water cut off sensors ever fail and the boiler is allowed to run without water, serious injury or death
may occur.
