INSIDE OPERATOR'S COMPARTMENT
When entering the operator's compartment, always remove all mud and oil from the soles of your shoes. If
you operate the accelerator and brake pedals with mud or oil stuck to your shoes, your foot may slip and
this may cause a serious accident.
Clean grease and dirt from pedals and controls. This contributes to safe operation. Cleaning also provides
an opportunity to inspect equipment. Minor damage can be repaired or corrected before major problems
result.
Keep cab floor and consoles free of tools and personal items.
Do not stick suction pads to the window glass. Suction pads act as a lens and may cause fire.
Do not leave lighters laying around the operator's compartment. If the temperature inside the operator's
compartment becomes high, there is danger that the lighter may explode.
Do not use cellular telephones inside the operator's compartment when driving or operating the machine.
There is danger that this may lead to an unexpected accident.
Never bring any dangerous objects such as flammable or explosive items into the operator's cab.
To ensure safety, do not use the radio or music headphones when operating the machine. There is danger
that this may lead to a serious accident.
When operating the machine, do not put your hands or head out of the window.
When standing up from the operator's seat, always place transmission neutral lock lever in the "LOCK"
position and set pilot cutoff switch to "O" (OFF) position. If you accidentally touch the work equipment
levers when they are not locked, the machine may suddenly move and cause serous injury or damage.
When leaving the machine, lower the work equipment completely to the ground, set transmission neutral
lock lever in the "LOCK" position, set pilot cutoff switch to "O" (OFF) position, "APPLY" parking brake, and
shut down engine. Use the key to lock all the equipment. Always remove the key and take it with you.
CLOTHING AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
ITEMS
Contain long hair, and avoid loose clothing and
jewelry. They can catch on controls or in
protruding parts and cause serious injury or
death.
Do not wear oily clothes. They are highly
flammable.
Full eye protection, a hard hat, safety shoes and
gloves may be required at the work site.
While working on the machine, never use
inadequate tools. They could break or slip,
causing injury, or they may not adequately
perform intended functions.
