Read the Operation and Maintenance Instruction
Manual carefully before starting, operating, maintain-
ing, fuelling or servicing the machine.
Carefully read the explanation to each and all safety
signs in the special section of this Manual before start-
ing, operating, maintaining, fuelling or servicing the
machine.
Machine-mounted safety plates are colour coded yel-
low with black borders when they refer to points where
special
ATTENTION must be paid and failure to ob-
serve them may cause a serious DANGER to the in-
tegrity of machine operators. They are white with red
borders and black lettering when they refer to a
FOR-
BIDDEN practice.
It is fundamental that all machine operators know very
well the meaning of each safety plate as this consid-
erably decreases operating hazards and accidents.
Do not allow unauthorised personnel to operate or
service this machine.
Do not wear rings, wrist watches, jewellery, loose or
hanging garments, such as ties, torn clothing,
scarves, unbuttoned or unzipped jackets that can get
caught in moving parts. Wear certified safety clothes
such as: hard hat, no-slip footwear, heavy gloves, ear
protection, safety glasses , reflector vests, respira-
tors every time the job requires it. Ask your employer
about safety regulations in force and protective equip-
ment.
Always keep the operator’s compartment, step plates,
grab-rails and handles clean and clear of foreign ob-
jects, oil, grease, mud or snow to minimise the dan-
ger of slipping or stumbling. Remove mud or grease
from your shoes before operating the machine.
Do not jump on or off the machine. Always keep both
hands and one foot, or both feet and one hand in
contact with steps and/or grab rails.
Do not use controls or hoses as hand holds. Hoses
and controls are movable parts and do not provide
solid support. Besides, controls may be inadvert-
ently moved and cause unexpected movement of the
machine or its attachments.
Never operate the machine or its attachments from
any position other than sitting in the driver’s seat. Keep
head, body, limbs, hands and feet inside the opera-
tor’s compartment at all times to reduce exposure to
external hazards.
Be careful of possible slippery conditions of the steps
and hand rails as well as of the ground around the
machine. Wear protective boots or shoes with the soles
made of highly no-slip rubber
Do not leave the machine until it has come to a
complete stop.
Always check height, width and weight limitations
which may be encountered in the working site and
ensure the machine does not exceed them.
Assess exact paths of gas ducts, water mains, tel-
ephone lines, sewers, overhead and underground elec-
tric lines and all other possible obstacles.
Such paths should be opportunely defined by compe-
tent Authorities. If necessary, require that the service
is interrupted or said installations are moved prior to
starting the work.
You must know the working capacity of the machine.
Define the rear upperstructure swing area and provide
for opportune barriers to prevent access into it.
Never exceed machine lifting capacity.
Remain within the limits shown in the loading capac-
ity chart which located on the machine.
STARTING
Never start or operate a failed machine. Walk all
around
the machine before mounting.
Before operating the machine, make sure that any
possible dangerous condition has been properly re-
moved. Before starting machine, check that steering
and attachment controls are in the neutral position
and the safety lever is in the LOCK position. Immedi-
ately report any malfunction of parts or systems to
the maintenance managers for proper action.
Prior to starting the engine, check, adjust and lock
the driver’s seat for maximum riding comfort and con-
trol accessibility. Prior to operating the machine and/
or its attachments, check that bystanders are out-
side the machine operating range. Sound the horn.
Obey all hand signals, safety indications and signs.
Due to the presence of flammable fluids, never check
fuel level, refuel, charge the batteries in the presence
of smoking materials, open flames or sparks.
Ensure that nobody is within the excavator operat-
ing area before starting the machine, swinging the
upper structure or moving in any direction.
Adjust all rear-view mirrors for maximum visibility of
the area behind the machine.
Ensure that engine speed is appropriate to the job to
be carried out.
If any hydraulic control or system exhibits erratic per-
formance or responds abnormally, have the machine
checked for air in the system.
Air in these circuits may cause incorrect movements
with consequent accident hazard. Refer to the Opera-
tion and Maintenance Instruction Manual about cor-
rective action to be taken.
OPERATING
Do not run the engine of this machine in closed
buildings without proper ventilation capable to re-
move harmful exhaust gases which concentrate in
the air.
Keep the operator’s compartment free of foreign ob-
jects, especially if not firmly secured. Never use the
