SECTION 02 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Prior to operating the machine and/or its attach-
ments, check that bystanders are outside the ma-
chine operating range. Sound horn.
Obey all hand signals, safety indications and signs.
Due to the presence of flammable fluids, never
check fuel level, refuel, charge the batteries or use
the starting fluid in the presence of smoking materi-
als, 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
performance or responds abnormally, have the ma-
chine checked for air in the system.
Air in these circuits may cause incorrect movements
with consequent accident hazard.
Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Instruction
Manual about corrective action to be taken.
OPERATION
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 driver’s seat free from foreign objects, es-
pecially if these are not secured. Never use the ma-
chine to transport objects, unless proper securing
points are provided.
Do not carry riders on the machine.
Study and familiarise with escape routes alternative
to normal exit routes.
For your personal safety, do not climb on or off the
machine while it is in motion.
Make sure that bystanders are clear of the machine
operating range before starting the engine and op-
erating the attachment. Sound horn.
Obey all hand signals, safety indications and signs.
When backing, always look to where the machine is
to be moved.
Be alert of the position of bystanders. Should some-
one enter the work area, stop the machine.
Maintain a safe distance from other machines or ob-
stacles to ensure required visibility conditions.
Always give way to loaded machines.
Maintain a clear vision of the surroundings of the
travel or work area at all times.
Keep cab windows clean and repaired.
When pulling loads or towing through a cable or
chain, do not start suddenly at full throttle. Take-up
slack carefully. Avoid kinking or twisting chains or
cables.
Carefully inspect cables or chains for flaws or prob-
lems before proceeding.
Do not pull through a kinked chain or cable as the
high anomalous stresses existing in this condition
may induce failures in the kinked portion. Always
wear heavy gloves when handling chains or cables.
Chains and cables should be securely anchored us-
ing suitable hooks. Anchor points should be strong
enough to withstand the expected load.
Keep anyone clear of anchor points and cables or
chains. Do not pull or tow unless the operator’s com-
partments of the machines involved are properly
protected against possible backlash in case of cable
or chain failure or detachment.
Be alert of soft ground conditions close to newly
constructed walls. The fill material and machine
weight may cause the wall to collapse under the ma-
chine.
In darkness, check area of operation carefully be-
fore moving in with the machine. Use all lights pro-
vided. Do not move into low visibility areas.
If the engine tends to slow down and stall for what-
ever reason under load or at idle, immediately report
this problem to the maintenance managers for prop-
er action. Do not operate the machine until this con-
dition is corrected.
Regularly check all exhaust system components, as
exhaust fumes are toxic for the operator.
Operators must know the performance of the ma-
chine they are driving.
