2.3 PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN BEFORE STARTING THE
ENGINE
2.3.1 SAFETY AT THE WORK SITE
q
Before starting the engine, thoroughly check the area for any
unusual condition of the ground due to which work may be dan-
gerous.
q
Check the conditions of the ground at the work site and before
starting the engine define the work plan and the best and safest
operating procedure.
q
Make the ground surface as level as possible before carrying
out any operation.
q
In case of work on the road, protect pedestrians and cars by
designating a person for work site traffic duty and install fences
around the work site.
q
If water lines, gas lines, and telephone or high-voltage electric
lines are located under the work site, contact the relevant utility
company in order to find out their exact positions or to make
them ineffective until the end of the operations. Be careful not to
sever or damage any of these lines.
q
Check the depth and flow of water before operating in water or
on river banks.
2.3.2 FIRE PREVENTION
q
Completely remove any wood chips, rubbish, paper and other
flammable materials that may have accumulated inside the en-
gine compartment, since they may cause fires.
q
Check the fuel and hydraulic system pipes for leaks and if nec-
essary repair them. Wipe up any excess oil, fuel or flammable
fluids.
q
Make sure that fire extinguishers are available in the work area.
2.3.3 PRECAUTIONS CONCERNING THE OPERATOR SEAT
q
Do not leave objects or tools lying around inside the cab. They may hinder the operation of the controls and
cause serious accidents.
q
Keep the cab floor and the controls (pedals and levers) clean, by removing any trace of oil and grease and, as
far as the floor is concerned, remove any excess dirt (earth, stones, etc.).
q
Check the seat belt and change it if it is broken or damaged.
Replace any component only with homologated parts available at Komatsu or its Distributors.
