1.3.4 Safe operation
 Before excavation operation, thoroughly check
the underground line conditions. Precisely
identify location of individual underground
utility line such as cables, gas pipeline, water
pipeline etc.
 Keep jobsite off-limits to all no operating
person.
 Make sure the condition of worksite is stable
and capable of supporting the machine.

To make it easy to escape if there is any
collapse, set the tracks at right angle to the pit
with sprocket at the rear when carrying out
operation near pit.
 When digging the work face under an
overhang, the overhang may collapse and fall
on top of the machine.
 Do not place bucket above the head of person
or operator cab. Falling objects from bucket or
collision with bucket can cause serious injury
or death or damage to machine.
 When using breakout hammer or other heavy
working equipment, there is a hazard of losing
its balance and tipping over.

Do not lower, swing or stop working device
all of sudden.

Do not extend or retract boom cylinder
suddenly, There is a risk of machine tipping
over due to impact force.
1.3.5 Operation on slopes
 When operating swing or working device
during operation on slopes, there is a risk that
the machine may lose its balance or tip over.
This may cause serious injury or damage to
machine. So it’s necessary to provide a flatness
area for the machine and operate carefully.
 Do not swing machine from uphill side to
downhill side, when bucket is fully loaded.
This dangerous act can cause machine to tip
over.
 If the machine has to be used on a slope, pile
the soil to make a platform which can keep
machine as horizontal as possible.
