2.4 Safety Rules
•
It is the operator's responsibility to read,
understand and follow ALL safety and
operation instructions in this manual. If
you do not understand any part of this
manual and require assistance, contact
your dealer, distributor, or Wallenstein
Equipment.
•
The operator of the skid digger must be a responsible,
physically able person familiar with machinery and trained
in this machine's operation.
•
Learn the meaning of all the safety signs (decals) that
are on the machine. For definitions, see
.
•
Review safety related items annually with all personnel who
will be operating the machine or performing maintenance.
•
Do not expect a person to operate the manure spreader
who has not read all the instructions and safety information
in this manual. An untrained operator is not qualified and
exposes themselves and bystanders to possible serious
injury or death.
•
Never consume alcohol or drugs prior to or while using
this equipment. Alertness or coordination can be affected.
Consult your doctor about using this machine while taking
prescription medications.
•
Wear appropriate PPE when using or servicing this
machine. This includes, but is not limited to:
-
A hard hat
-
Hearing protection
-
Protective footwear with steel toes and slip resistant
soles
-
Protective glasses, goggles, or a face shield
•
Wear hearing protection on a full-time basis if the noise in
the operator's position exceeds 80 dB. Noise over 85 dB
on a long-term basis can cause severe hearing loss. Noise
over 90 dB adjacent to the operator over a long-term basis
may cause permanent, total hearing loss.
•
Keep a first-aid kit available for use should
the need arise and know how to use it.
•
Keep a fire extinguisher available for use
should the need arise and know how to
use it.
•
Do not allow long hair, loose fitting clothing, or jewelry near
the equipment.
•
Know how to stop the equipment quickly in the event of an
emergency. For instructions, see
•
Do not install the skid digger on the skid steer if the total
skid steer and equipment weight exceeds the rollover
protection structure (ROPS) weight certification.
•
Have underground utilities located and marked before
starting to dig. Take care not to contact overhead and
underground obstructions during operation.
•
Only operate the machine in daylight or good artificial light.
•
Always wear the seat belt when operating
the skid steer. Serious injury or even
death could result from falling off the skid
steer, particularly during a rollover when
the operator could be pinned under the
machine.
•
Do not risk injury or death by ignoring good safety
practices.
2.5 Equipment Safety Guidelines
•
The skid digger is not intended for use or transport on
public roadways. For more information, see
•
Do not dig under the skid steer. A cave-in could result
causing the machine to fall into the excavation.
•
Never operate the machine with any shield removed. Keep
all shields in place. If shield removal is required for service
or maintenance, replace the shield prior to using the
manure spreader.
•
Replace any safety or instruction signs (decals) that are not
readable or missing.
•
Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized
modification may result in serious injury or death, and may
impair the function and life of the equipment. Unapproved
modifications void the warranty.
•
Make sure that the machine is properly stationed, adjusted,
and in good operating condition.
•
Do not exceed the skid steer lift capacity. Overloading can
cause structural damage and lead to unsafe operating
conditions.
•
Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery. If the
machine's ability to do a job or to do it safely is in question
–
DO NOT TRY IT
