• Careful and prudent working is the best way to avoid accidents!Keep
the machine clean. This reduces fire hazard (such as from combustible
materials like rags), and reduces the injury hazard or operational
accidents that can be caused by dirt build-up on the travel pedals or
foot rests and steps.
• Observe all safety, warning, and informational signs and labels on the
machine.
• Start and operate the machine from the seat only.
• The operator must sit in the seat, fasten and adjust the seat belt before
putting the machine into operation.
• Always adjust the seat position before starting work. Do not change the
seat position during machine travel or machine operation.
• Make sure that all safety devices are properly installed and functional
before starting work.
• Before putting the machine/attachment into operation (startup/moving),
make sure that no one in the immediate vicinity will be at risk.
Starting and stopping
• Perform starting and stopping procedures according to this Operator’s
Manual.
• Observe all indicator lights.
• Do not use starting fluid (for example, ether) especially in those cases
in which a heater plug (intake air pre-heating) is used at the same time.
• Make sure the control levers, the signaling and the light systems are
functional before operating the machine, and also before restarting
after an interruption of work.
• Fold up the control lever base before releasing the seat belt in order to
avoid unintentional operation.
Work area awareness
• Familiarize yourself with the surroundings and circumstances of the
work site before beginning work. Be aware of:
- obstacles in the working and traveling area
- the soil bearing capacity
- any necessary barriers separating the work site from public roads
• Always keep at a safe distance from the edges of building pits and
slopes.
• Look out for the following when working in buildings or in enclosed
areas:
- height of the ceiling/clearances
- width of entrances
- maximum load of ceilings and floors
- sufficient room ventilation — carbon monoxide poisoning hazard.
• Observe the danger zone. See “Danger zone awareness”.
• Use the rearview mirror to stay aware of work area obstacles and
personnel.
• Always switch on the work lights in conditions of poor visibility and after
dark. However, make sure that users of public roads will not be tempo-
rarily blinded by the work lights.
• Provide additional lighting of the work area if the lights of the machine
are not sufficient for performing work safely.
