Post Driver Operation
Operational Safety Tips
1.
Follow all safety information contained in
this manual and refer to safety decals
located on the Post Driver.
2.
Personal safety equipment must be worn at
all times during operation, i.e. safety
glasses,
steel
toe
shoes,
hearing
protection, etc.
3.
Always stand 45 degrees to the right of the
post while the Post Driver is in operation.
4. Do not
remove any of the Post Driver
safety equipment or safety labels.
5.
All Post Driver safety equipment must be
inspected, maintained, kept in working order,
and used during Post Driver operation.
6. Do not
place your hand(s) on top of the post
when placing the post in the Post Driver or
while the Post Driver is operating.
7.
Leave the Safety Arm Attachment open
when not holding a post, except when
transporting the Post Driver.
8. Do not
remove the hydraulic control valve
safety lever stop.
9.
Never use the maximum force of the Post
Driver until the post being driven is started
into the ground and is straight.
10.
Use caution when driving small diameter
wood or steel posts. Maximum driving impact
is not necessary.
11.
Always be aware of the environment in
which you are operating the Post Driver.
12. Do Not
operate the Post Driver on steep
slopes, as this could cause a roll over.
13.
Always check for underground utilities, i.e.
wires, gas lines, waterlines, etc. Call your
local utility companies for underground
utility locations.
14.
Use caution where large rocks or other
objects could be hidden underground and
not visible to the operator. The post could
splinter and cause injury to the operator. If
the post fails to drive into the ground after two
or three strikes, move to another location.
15. Do not
operate the Post Driver with the
machine or power source unattended. The
Post Driver requires two people for proper
operation - one operating the Post Driver
and one on the tractor.
16.
Always engage the Road Lock Pin in the
Drive Ram upper hole before transporting.
