Risk Assessment
!M
DANGER
Factors affecting machine stability include size and
type of load, angle of elevation, the distance the boom
is extended, ground condition and wind speed and
direction.
It is the responsibility of the operator to assess the
wind conditions and size of load before operating the
machine.
It is the responsibility of the operator to assess the
terrain, surface roughness, firmness of ground
(remember that when wet, the ground will not support
the same loads as when dry) before operating the
machine.
0074
It is the responsibility of the competent people planning the
job and operating the machine to make judgement as to
the safe use of the machine, having taken 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 complies with any
safety precautions that the assessment identifies.
If you are unsure of the suitability of the machine for a
specific task, contact your JCB distributor 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
making a risk assessment. Other factors may need to be
considered.
Important: An adequate risk assessment depends on the
training and experience of the operator. Do not put your life
or the lives of others at risk.
General
An area selected as a loading/unloading area should be
large enough to accommodate all the wheels of the
machine and stabilisers (if fitted). It should not be
necessary for the machine to make tight turns with an
elevated load.
However, your machine may safely be used for loading/
unloading operations in areas which are not substantially
level provided that its design capabilities are not exceeded
and that the operator is satisfied that no part of the
operation is outside the scope of his/her training and
experience.
Traffic routes should be of consolidated firm ground with
no gradient more severe than the following:
These figures apply only to the machine in it's normal
travelling mode, that is with the upper surface of the heels
of the fork arms not more than 100mm-150mm (4-6in)
above mean ground level, and travelling no faster than
walking pace. Particularly in the case of a lateral slope,
some form of restraint on the load may be necessary.
Observe the maximum wading depth of this machine.
Water can enter the engine and axles, and the cooling fan
can be damaged if the machine is operated in deeper
water.
Personnel
– Are all persons who are going to take part in the
operation adequately trained, experienced and
competent? Are they fit and adequately rested? A
sick or tired operator is a dangerous operator.
– Is supervision needed? Is the supervisor adequately
trained and experienced?
– As well as the machine operator, are any assistants or
lookouts needed?
The machine
– Is it in good working order?
– Have any reported defects been rectified?
– Have the daily checks been carried out?
– Are the tyres still at the correct pressure and in good
condition and is there sufficient fuel to complete the
job?
Maximum up slope: 15% (1 in 7)
Maximum down slope: 15% (1 in 7)
Maximum lateral slope: 15% (1 in 7)
