1. Precautions and safety instructions
entire construction zone.
DANGER!
- EXPLOSION AND FIRE
The use of the demolition and sorting grab may
cause sparking which could ignite highly flammable
gases. This may result in fire or explosion.
Ø
Never work in an environment with highly flammable
substances.
Ø
Ensure there are no hidden gas sources in the work area.
Ø
Inspect the gas line drawings for the work area.
DANGER!
- EXPLOSION AND FIRE
Dust rich air can form an explosive atmosphere which can
ignite when using the demolition and sorting grab. This can
lead to fire or explosion.
Ø
Never use the demolition and sorting grab in an explosive
atmosphere.
Ø
Always ensure adequate ventilation is provided when
working in buildings or in an enclosed area.
1.10 Elektric shock, precautions
DANGER!
- ELEKTRIC SSHOCK
Any contact between the demolition and sorting grapple
and electrical circuits or other power sources will cause an
electric shock which could result in serious injury or death. The
demolition and sorting grab is not electrically insulated.
Ø
Never work near electrical circuits or other power sources.
Ø
Ensure there are no hidden electrical circuits are in the work
zone.
Ø
Consult wiring diagrams.
1.11 Falling rocks, precautions
WARNING!
- AIRBORNE FRAGMENTS
Material which breaks free can be thrown and cause serious
injury. Even small objects falling from a great height can cause
serious damage.
While using the demolition and sorting grab, the danger zone is
considerably greater than during regular excavation work. The
danger zone must therefore be enlarged or secured in a suitable
manner.
Ø
Safeguard the danger zone.
Ø
Stop the works immediately when someone enters the
danger zone.
Ø
Close the windscreen and side windows of the excavator
cabin.
1.12 Emissions, precautions
WARNING!
- LUNG DISEASES CAUSED BY DUST
Using the demolition and sorting grab may release dust. Dust
produced during the demolition/moving/sorting of rocks,
concrete and asphalt or other similar materials can lead to
silicosis (also called black lung disease) by inhalation. Silicosis
is a chronic condition that can lead to cancer and death.
Ø
Wear suitable respiratory protection.
1.13 Operating machines, precautions
WARNING!
- NARCOTICS, ALCOHOL AND DRUGS
Narcotics, alcohol and drugs make the user less attentive and
affect the ability to concentrate. Carelessness and incorrect
assessment of a situation may result in serious injury or death.
Ø
Never work with the excavator and hydraulic work tool
when under the influence of narcotics, alcohol or drugs that
affect concentration.
Ø
Never allow other people under the influence of narcotics,
alcohol or drugs that affect concentration work with the
excavator and the demolition and sorting grab.
1.14 Modifications or
changes, precautions
WARNING!
- MODIFICATIONS OR CHANGES
Modifications to the demolition and sorting grab or
the adapter plate can lead to serious injury.
Ø
Never modify the demolition and sorting grab.
Ø
Use only original parts or accessories approved by Dehaco.
1.15 Environmental
contamination, precautions
ATTENTION
- ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION BY HYDRAULIC OIL
Hydraulic oil is harmful to the environment. When hydraulic oil is
released (e.g. by leakage) the groundwater and soil may become
contaminated causing organisms to die.
Ø
Collect all spilled hydraulic oil to prevent environmental
contamination. For small amounts, use absorbent material.
Ensure it does not make its way into the soil, groundwater
or water lines.
Ø
Collect the contaminated absorbent material in an airtight
container and seal it well.
Ø
Contact a licensed waste disposal company.
Ø
Remove all contaminated materials in accordance with
current environmental regulations.
