JOB SAFETY
It is the owner’s/operator’s responsibility to replace any safety decals that are damaged or missing from the
machine.
Never leave the machine running while it is unattended. Always park the machine in a safe, level area, lower any
work equipment to the ground, move the hydraulic lockout control lever to the locked (closed) position, and shut
down the engine before exiting. Secure the machine to prevent tampering by unauthorized personnel.
Before starting any work operations, travel, or maintenance procedures, make sure all personnel are a safe distance
from all points of the machine. Never allow anyone to stand near the machine while it is in operation or under
maintenance or repair.
It is the responsibility of the operator’s employer to conduct periodic safety training and familiarize all personnel
with emergency procedures.
If pedestrians are in the area, sound the horn and proceed slowly.
When working with another person on a job site, make sure all personnel involved understand all
industry-standard hand signals that are to be used.
The operator shall respond to operating signals from the proper signal person only, but shall obey a stop signal at
any time from anyone.
The operator must always be able to see the work location. If this is not possible, then a signalman must be used. If
