General Safety
Always follow all safety instructions to avoid serious
injury or death. Using this product for purposes other
than its intended use could prove dangerous to you
and bystanders.
•
Do not exceed the rated operating capacity, as the
machine may become unstable, which may result
in loss of control.
•
Do not carry a load with the arms raised; always
carry loads close to the ground.
•
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control
and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe
injury or death.
Operating the machine on any
slope or uneven terrain requires extra caution.
•
Operate the machine up and down slopes with
the heavy end of the machine uphill and the
load close to the ground.
Weight distribution
changes with attachments. An empty bucket
makes the rear of the machine the heavy end, and
a full bucket makes the front of the machine the
heavy end. Most other attachments make the front
of the machine the heavy end.
•
Have the property or work area marked for buried
lines and other objects, and do not dig in marked
areas.
•
Read and understand the content of this Operator’s
Manual before starting the machine.
•
Use your full attention while operating the
machine. Do not engage in any activity that
causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property
damage may occur.
•
Never allow children or untrained people to
operate the machine.
•
Keep your hands and feet away from the moving
components and attachments.
•
Do not operate the machine without the guards
and other safety protective devices in place and
working on the machine.
•
Keep bystanders and children out of the operating
area.
•
Stop the machine, shut off the machine, and
remove the key before servicing or unclogging
the machine.
Improperly using or maintaining this machine can
result in injury. To reduce the potential for injury,
comply with these safety instructions and always
pay attention to the safety-alert symbol
, which
means Caution, Warning, or Danger—personal safety
instruction. Failure to comply with these instructions
may result in personal injury or death.
