2.2 General Safety
You are responsible for the safe operation and maintenance of your Amity implement. You
and anyone
else who will operate, maintain, or work around the machine should be familiar with the operating and
maintenance procedures and safety information in this manual.
Safety practices protect you and the people around you, so make them a working part of your safety
program.
Equipment owners must give operating instructions annually to operators or employees before
allowing them to operate the machine, per OSHA regulation 1928.57.
The most important element of safety for this equipment is a safe operator. It is the operator
’
s
responsibility to read and follow all safety and operating instructions in the manual. All accidents can
be avoided.
A person who has not read and understood all operating and safety instructions is not qualified to
operate the machine. An untrained operator exposes himself and bystanders to serious injury or death.
Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function or safety,
or both, and could alter the life and warranty of the product.
The following list is a set of safety guidelines to adhere to:
1.
Read and understand the Operator
’
s Manual and all safety signs before operating, maintaining, or
adjusting the machine.
2.
Install and properly secure all shields and guards before operating.
3.
Have a first
-
aid kit available and know how to use it.
4.
Have a fire extinguisher available and know how to use it.
5.
Clear the area of people and remove foreign objects from the machine before starting and
operating.
6.
Shift to park, disengage PTO, lower machine to ground, relieve hydraulic pressure, stop engine,
remove ignition key, and wait for all moving parts to stop before servicing, adjusting, repairing, or
disconnecting.
