2 - SAFETY INFORMATION
• Before undertaking any travel or working operations
during hours of darkness, make sure the lighting and
signalling equipment is fully operative.
• Before any travel operation, make sure that the doors
and hoods are properly latched.
• Check that no tools or other items have been left on the
machine (be it on the undercarriage or the upperstruc-
ture) or in the operator's compartment.
• The operator must be alone on the machine at all times.
Do not allow anyone to stand on or around the machine.
• To get in or out of the cab, it is imperative that the up-
perstructure frame is in line with the undercarriage.
• When alighting from or getting into the operator's com-
partment, always face the machine and use the steps
and access handles.
• Be sure you know the position and function of each
control. Incorrect operation of the controls can cause
serious injuries.
• Check all controls and safety devices in a safe, open
area before starting work.
• Keep away from dangerous areas such as ditches,
overhangs, rocky areas, etc. Make a survey of the
work-site and determine the possible dangers before
using the machine.
• Before parking the machine, make sure that the ground
is stable. Plan the worksite so that the ground is flat,
hard and level.
• Before moving the machine to work in a new area, walk
around to determine all possible causes of accidents
there. Holes, obstacles, debris and other danger risks
in the working area can cause serious injury.
• Be ready to meet emergencies. Always carry a first aid
kit and if possible, fire extinguisher (not supplied) within
easy reach on board. Make sure the fire extinguisher
is regularly serviced in conformance with the manufac-
turer's instructions.
• Check the fastening of the main components: counter-
weight, turntable bearing and operator's compartment.
In the event of problems, consult your CASE CON-
STRUCTION Dealer.
• Make sure you understand the symbols used on the
machine safety decals. Keep the decals clean so that
they are perfectly legible at all times.
• Work out a means of convenient escape from the ma-
chine (emergency exit via the windshield or the rear
window glass) in the event of the machine turning over
or tipping over or the cab door being jammed.
• Make sure you are perfectly familiar with traffic regu-
lations and special safety equipment requirements be-
fore transporting this machine on a public highway.
• When loading trucks, never swing the load over the
truck cab.
• Before undertaking any travel on the job site, make sure
the itinerary to be followed is completely safe. If bridges
are to be crossed, make sure they are perfectly capable
of supporting the weight of the machine.
• Always steer round large obstacles such as boulders,
big trees, etc.
Quick coupler (optional)
• It is mandatory for the switch to be in the locked position
when operating the machine.
• Every day, check that the locking bar functions correctly
and that it is not fouled by foreign matter. Clean the
locking system if necessary.
• If you are obliged to use the quick coupler with buckets
not manufactured by CASE CONSTRUCTION, make
sure the diameter of the pins and the width between
the bucket lugs meet the dimensions needed to fit the
quick coupler (pins, washers, bushings, etc.). Consult
your CASE CONSTRUCTION Dealer.
Operating the machine
• When working on a public highway, use standard traf-
fic signs and take into consideration the working range
of the upperstructure and its attachments. Local or na-
tional regulations stipulate the number, type and loca-
tion of reflector strips.
• Avoid running the engine in a confined space. If there
is no alternative, proper ventilation must be provided at
all times.
• Do not allow anyone else on the machine. The passen-
ger could fall or cause an accident.
• Never operate the working or travel controls unless you
are properly seated in the operator’s seat with the seat
belt correctly fastened.
• Before starting the engine, check the direction of travel
(in forward drive, the reduction gears should be to the
rear of the machine).
• Do not work near overhead high-voltage electric lines
without checking beforehand that all necessary mea-
sures have been taken to respect the minimum dis-
tances:
Less than 57000 volts:
3 m ( 9.8 ft ).
More than 57000 volts: 5 m ( 16.4 ft ).
• Study the position of any existing pipelines or conduits
before starting work. Electrical cables, gas and water
pipes and other underground installations can cause
serious injury.
• Always make allowance for working conditions (sloping
or rough ground), the site and weather conditions when
driving the machine.
• Do not allow anyone to stand in the machine working
area. Accidental operation of the upperstructure swing
control or of an attachment control could cause an ac-
