2.5 Equipment Safety Guidelines
A few seconds of thought and a careful approach to handling
equipment can prevent accidents.
•
Replace safety or instruction signs (decals) that are not
readable or missing. For locations and explanations, see
.
•
Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized
modifications may affect the integrity of the machine
or the ability of the machine to perform as designed.
Modifications can impair safety or function. They can affect
the life of the equipment and void the warranty.
•
Make sure the machine is correctly stationed, adjusted, and
in good operating condition.
•
Keep the machine free of accumulated trash, grease, and
debris to prevent fires.
•
Replace the winch synthetic rope if it is kinked, badly
frayed, has knots, cuts, or broken strands. If the rope fails
under tension, it can snap back with great force causing
injury or death. Avoid sudden jerks, quick starts or stops.
Start slowly and smoothly.
•
Never exceed the limitations of the machine. If its ability to
do the job, or to do it safely is in question–
STOP!

themselves or others. Review the safety instructions with all
users annually. The

keep a training record.
•
An employer has the responsibility to train employees how

quickly. Operators must completely understand the safety
information in this manual and the safety decals on the
machine
•
Provide instruction to anyone else who is going to operate
the machine. This equipment is dangerous to anyone who
