2�6�1 OPERATOR SAFE ZONE:
In certain cases where the boom is fully retracted and handling an 2.4m (8') log, it is possible to create a
collision hazard with the operator at the
control station. Follow these important
points to keep operators and workers safe
from potential hazards.
•
Create a 90° operator safety zone
based on the position of your work
station, and material stack. Never
move the grapple or material into the
operator safe zone.
•
Always move the work station opposite
the work area: if work area is on the
left of the trailer, position the control
station on the right of the trailer.
•
Always be aware of the position of the
boom and material being handled.
•
Always be aware of overhead hazards,
modify your work zone to take these
hazards into account:
•
Telephone lines
•
Tree branches
•
Roof overhang
•
Wash lines, ropes or cables
•
Power lines – maintain a 15 m
(50 ft) distance - electrocution
can occur with out direct contact
(arcing).
2�6�2 WORK ZONE:
Injury may occur from heavy material falling / dropping or material on a rotating boom creates a collision
hazard if workers or bystanders are inside the working zone. Follow these important points to keep workers
and bystanders safe from potential hazards:
•
A 6m (20') radius work zone perimeter should be established, and clearly marked with safety cones.
•
Workers and bystanders should never approach the grapple while in operation with out first signalling
the operator.
•
Always know where all workers and bystanders are located when operating the grapple.
•
All bystanders should be kept outside of the work zone until the machine is in
safe condition:
•
grapple closed and resting on trailer
•
install boom pin lock
•
shut off the engine
•
turn fuel valve off
•
ensure load is secure
