CHAPTER 2
SAFETY
This safety alert symbol means Attention! Become alert! Your safety is
involved! It stresses an attitude of “Heads Up for Safety” and can be
found throughout this Operator’s Manual and on the decals on the machine.
Before operating this machine, read and study the following safety information.
For further reference on the safe operation of skid-steer loaders, Gehl Company
suggests that equipment owners obtain the Gehl “Skid-Steer Loader Safety”
video, which is available through Gehl dealers. In addition, be sure that everyone
who operates or works with this machine, whether family member or employee,
is familiar with these safety precautions. It is essential to have competent and
careful operators, who are not physically or mentally impaired, and who are thor-
oughly trained in the safe operation of the machine and the handling of loads. It is
recommended that the operator be capable of obtaining a valid motor vehicle
operator’s license.
The use of skid-steer loaders is subject to certain hazards that cannot be eliminated
by mechanical means, but only by exercising intelligence, care and common sense.
Such hazards include, but are not limited to, hillside operation, overloading, insta-
bility of the load, poor maintenance and using the equipment for a purpose for
which it is not intended or designed.
Gehl ALWAYS considers the operator’s safety when designing its machinery,
and guards exposed moving parts for the operator’s protection. However, some
areas cannot be guarded or shielded in order to assure proper operation. Further-
more, this Operator’s Manual and decals on the machine warn of additional haz-
ards and they should be read and observed closely.
Some photographs in this manual may show doors, guards and shields open or
removed for illustrative purposes only. Be sure that all doors, guards and shields
are in their proper operating positions before starting the engine to operate the
unit.
Different applications may require optional safety equipment, such as a back-up
alarm, mirror, strobe light or an impact-resistant front door. Be sure you know
the job site hazards and equip your machine as needed.
“DANGER” indicates an imminently haz-
ardous situation which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
“WARNING” indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
“CAUTION” indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided may result in
minor or moderate injury. May also alert against unsafe practices.
