Object Handling
If a lifted load should fall, any person nearby may be
struck by the falling load or may be crushed underneath it,
resulting in serious injury or death.
When using the machine for craning operations, be sure
to comply with all local regulations.
Do not use damaged chains or frayed cables, slings, or
ropes.
Before craning, position the upperstructure with the
travel motors at the rear.
Move the load slowly and carefully. Never move it
suddenly.
Keep all persons well away from the load.
Never move a load over a person’s head.
Do not allow anyone to approach the load until it is safely
and securely situated on supporting blocks or on the
ground.
Never attach a sling or chain to the bucket teeth. They
may come off, causing the load to fall.
