Operator Safety
Keep Riders Off
•
Only allow the operator on the machine. Keep
riders off.
•
Riders on the machine or attachment may be
struck by foreign objects or thrown off the ma-
chine causing serious injury.
•
Riders obstruct the operator’s view resulting in
the machine being operated in an unsafe manner.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids
•
Hydraulic hoses and lines can fail due to physical
damage, kinks, age, and exposure. Check hoses
and lines regularly. Replace damaged hoses and
lines.
•
Hydraulic
fl
uid connections can loosen due to
physical damage and vibration.
Check connec-
tions regularly.
Tighten loose connections.
•
Escaping
fl
uid under pressure can penetrate the
skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by
relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic
or other lines. Tighten all connections before ap-
plying pressure.
•
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Pro-
tect hands and body from high pressure
fl
uids.
•
If an accident occurs,
see a doctor immediately.
Any
fl
uid injected into the skin must be surgically
removed within a few hours or gangrene may re-
sult. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of injury
should reference a knowledgeable medical
source.
Checking Wheel Hardware
•
An accident could occur causing serious injury if
wheel hardware is not fastened.
•
Check wheel hardware tightness often during the
fi
rst 100 hours of operation. Torque to 75 ft-lbs.
•
Wheel hardware must be tightened to speci
fi
ed
torque using the proper procedure anytime it is
loosened.
Wear Appropriate Clothing
•
Always wear safety goggles, or safety glasses
with side shields, and a hard hat when operating
the machine.
•
Wear
close
fi
tting clothing and safety equipment
appropriate for the job.
•
While blowing, always wear substantial footwear
and long trousers.
DO NOT
operate the equip-
ment when barefoot or wearing open sandals.
•
Wear a suitable hearing protection device such
as earplugs. Loud noise can cause impairment
or loss of hearing.
Maintenance and Storage
•
NEVER
operate machine in a closed area where
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
•
Disengage drives, engage parking brake, stop
engine and remove key or disconnect spark plug
(for gas engines). Wait for all movement to stop
before adjusting, cleaning or repairing.
•
Clean all debris from machine, drives, muf
fl
ers,
and engine to help prevent
fi
res. Clean up oil or
fuel spillage.
•
Let engine cool before storing and do not store
near
fl
ame.
•
Shut off fuel while storing or transporting. Do not
store fuel near
fl
ames or drain indoors.
•
Park machine on level ground. Never allow un-
trained personnel to service machine. Under-
stand service procedure before doing work.
•
Use jack stands or lock service latches to support
components when required. Securely support
any machine elements that must be raised for
service work.
•
Before servicing machine or attachment, care-
fully release pressure from any components with
stored energy, such as hydraulic components or
springs.
•
Release hydraulic pressure by moving hydraulic
control levers back and forth with the engine OFF.
