Improper operation can cause serious
injury or death.
Pre-operation
This attachment is designed to be used for both
asphalt and concrete milling operations.
NEVER
use this machine for any other purpose.
Read the operators manual for the “Skid Steer
Loader.”
NEVER
allow untrained people to
operate.
Operating instructions must be given to everyone
before operating this attachment and at least once
a year thereafter in accordance with OSHA
regulations.
NEVER
exceed the maximum recommended input
power or speed specifications for the attachment.
Over-powering or over-speeding the attachment
may cause personal injury and/or machine
damage.
Keep all shields, guards, and covers in place.
Do not modify equipment or add attachments that
are not approved by Erskine Attachments LLC.
Use adequate safety warning lights and devices as
required by local regulations. Obey all local laws
and regulations regarding machine operation on
public property.
Operation
Always wear eye protection that meets z87.1 or
use with a loader enclosure that provides similar
protection.
Hydraulic connections may be hot after use. Use
gloves if connecting or disconnecting after use.
Check and be sure all operating controls are in
neutral before starting the engine.
Milling concrete and asphalt can release dust
containing silica. According to OSHA, exposure to
silica can result in respiratory diseases (affecting
your ability to breath), including silicosis, lung
cancer, and kidney disease. Refer to OSHA for
more information about controlling exposure to
silica. Occupational use of this attachment may be
subject to OSHA regulations specific to respirable
silica.
SAFETY
________ _
Operation (continued)
Keep people away from loader, attachment and
discharge when in use. This attachment sends
objects flying and has rotating parts.
NEVER
direct discharge toward people
– rocks and
debris can be thrown.
NEVER
operate near embankments or terrain
that is so steep that rollover could occur.
Always stay in the operator position when using
the attachment.
Before leaving the operators position, disengage
hydraulic drive, lower the attachment to rest flat
on the ground, stop engine, set park brake, and
wait for all motion to stop.
NEVER
place hands in the discharge area or
clear debris while the engine is running.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids Hazard
Escaping fluid under pressure can
penetrate the skin causing serious
injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving the
pressure
before
disconnecting
hydraulic lines.
Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY
PARTS, to check for suspected leaks. Wear
protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles
when servicing or performing maintenance on
hydraulic systems.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately.
Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically
removed within a few hours or gangrene may
result.
Maintenance
NEVER make adjustments, lubricate, clean, or
perform any service on the machine while it is in
operation.
Make sure the attachment is serviced on a daily
basis. Improper maintenance can cause serious
injury or death in addition to damage to the
attachment and/or your equipment.
