WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Hydraulic fluid under high pressure will penetrate the skin
or eyes causing serious injury. Wear protective gloves and
safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic
systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood, rather than
hands, when searching for leaks. If an accident occurs, seek
immediate emergency medical care or gangrene may result.
DO NOT DELAY.
•
Consult your power machine Operator’s Manual for
operating capacity, lifting capacity, and operating
specifications. Exceeding rated capacities and
specifications can result in loss of control, roll-over or other
serious hazard.
•
Never carry riders on the attachment or power machine.
Riders can obstruct the operator’s view, interfere with
controls, be pinched by moving components, become
entangled in rotating components, struck by objects, thrown
about, fall off and be run over, etc.
•
Keep load centered, even when stopped. This will optimize
load stability and protect against load shifting.
•
Allow only persons to operate this attachment who have
fully read and comprehended this manual, and who have
been properly trained in the safe operation of this
attachment. Serious injury or death can result from failure
to read, understand, and follow instructions provided in this
manual.
•
Operate only power machines equipped with a certified
Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and seat belt. Keep
folding ROPS in the “locked up” position when
appropriate. If ROPS is in the locked up position, fasten seat
belt snugly and securely to help protect against serious
injury or death from falling and machine overturn.
•
Check hitch fit-up frequently. An improper fit-up can cause
the attachment to come loose from the loader hitch plate
and fall.
•
Follow recommendations in the power machine Operator’s
Manual when parking or dismounting the power machine.
•
Always lower grapple to the ground and fully close upper
jaw before dismounting to service the grapple or to park
with grapple attached. Working around a grapple with the
upper jaw raised or getting on and off the power machine
with the loader arms not fully down can cause a crushing
hazard due to accidental movement of the control levers or
loss of hydraulic pressure.
•
Lightweight power machines may need weight added to the
rear to maintain steering control and prevent forward and/
or side tipping. Consult your power machine Operator’s
Manual to determine proper weight requirements and
maximum limitations.
•
Use a power machine of adequate size for the load being
carried. An undersized machine can roll over when raising
the loader arms due to high center of gravity.
•
Do not lift loads that exceed rated lift capacity of
attachment.
•
Do not chain or strap loads to the loader arms, hitch, or
attachment. Hitting solid objects with a load fastened to the
attachment or machine can cause frame damage and/or
tipping resulting in the loss of operator control.
•
Do not abuse equipment. Incorrect use of the attachment
can damage equipment structurally and cause serious
injury or death.
•
Do not use this attachment as a lifting device for people or
as a work platform. It is not properly designed or guarded
for this use.
•
Do not use this attachment to lift the front or back of the
power machine off the ground. Doing so can damage the
attachment, power machine, and/or cause serious injury or
death.
•
Do not use this attachment to pull and/or pry fence posts,
stumps, roots, rocks, or other objects out of the ground. It is
not properly designed or guarded for this use.
•
Do not use this attachment to lift, carry, push or tow other
equipment or objects. It is not properly designed or guarded
for this use. The operator could lose control resulting in
equipment damage and/or tipping hazard.
•
Do not force solid objects in between teeth while closing upper
jaw against lower jaw.
•
Do not alter attachment or replace parts on the attachment
with other brands. Other brands may not fit properly or meet
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) specifications. They
can weaken the integrity and impair the safety, function,
performance, and life of the attachment. Replace parts only
with genuine OEM parts.
•
Before dismounting to unhook attachment, fully close upper
jaw and lower loader lift arms until the lower jaw and
parking stands are resting on solid level ground.
•
Always store attachment in a secure position so that it will
not fall over.
•
Wear appropriate personal protective gear. Include eye
protection when appropriate and when operating a power
machine without an enclosure or protective shield. Dust and
debris can get into the eyes.
•
Avoid exposure to dust containing crystalline silica
particles. This dust can cause serious injury to the lungs
(silicosis). Because crystalline silica is a basic component
of sand and granite, many activities at construction sites
produce dust containing crystalline silica. Trenching,
sawing, and boring of material containing crystalline silica
can produce dust containing crystalline silica.
