WARNING Before you start using the machine, check with your local gas company if there are any buried
gas pipes on the site.
If there are buried gas pipes we recommend that you ask the gas company for any specific advice regarding
the way you must work on the site.
Some modern gas pipes cannot be detected by metal detectors, so it is essential that an accurate map of
buried gas pipes is obtained before any excavation work commences.
Hand dig trial holes to obtain precise pipe locations. Any cast iron pipes found must be assumed to be gas
pipes until contrary evidence is obtained.
Older gas pipes can be damaged by heavy vehicles driving over the ground above them.
Leaking gas is highly explosive.
If a gas leak is suspected, contact the local gas company immediately and warn all personnel on the site.
Ban smoking, make sure that all naked lights are extinguished and switch off any engines which may be
running.
You are strongly advised to make sure that the safety arrangements on site comply with the local laws and
regulations concerning work near buried gas pipes.
CAUTION Before you start using the machine, check with your local public water supplier if there are buried
pipes and drains on the site. If there are, obtain a map of their locations and follow the advice given by
the water supplier.
You are strongly advised to make sure that the safety arrangements on site comply with the local laws and
regulations concerning work near buried pipes and drains.
CAUTION If you cut through a fibre optic cable, Do not look into the end of it, your eyes could be permanently
damaged.
An applicable worksite organisation is required in order to minimise hazards that are caused by restricted
visibility. The worksite organisation is a collection of rules and procedures that coordinates the machines and
people that work together in the same area. Examples of worksite organisation include:
• Restricted areas
• Controlled patterns of machine movement
• A system of communication.
You and/or your company could be legally liable for any damage you may cause to public utilities. It is your
responsibility to make sure that you know the locations of any public utility cables or pipes on the worksite
which could be damaged by your machine.
Risk Assessment
It is the responsibility of the competent people that plan the work and operate the machine to make a judgement
about the safe use of the machine, they must take into account the specific application and conditions of use
at the time.
It is essential that a risk assessment of the work to be done is completed and that the operator obeys any
safety precautions that the assessment identifies.
If you are unsure of the suitability of the machine for a specific task, contact your JCB dealer who will be
pleased to advise you.
The following considerations are intended as suggestions of some of the factors to be taken into account when
a risk assessment is made. Other factors may need to be considered.
A good risk assessment depends on the training and experience of the operator. Do not put your life or the
lives of others at risk.
Personnel
• Are all persons who will take part in the operation sufficiently trained, experienced and competent? Are
they fit and sufficiently rested? A sick or tired operator is a dangerous operator.
