SAFETY
SA-6
FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELT
• If the machine should overturn, the operator may
become injured and/or thrown from the cab. Addi-
tionally the operator may be crushed by the over-
turning machine, resulting in serious injury or death.
• Prior to operating the machine, thoroughly ex-
amine webbing, buckle and attaching hardware. If
any item is damaged or worn, replace the seat
belt or component before operating the machine.
• Be sure to remain seated with the seat belt se-
curely fastened at all times when the machine is
in operation to minimize the chance of injury from
an accident.
• We recommend that the seat belt be replaced
every three years regardless of its apparent con-
dition.

MOVE AND OPERATE MACHINE SAFELY
• Bystanders can be run over.
• Take extra care not to run over bystanders. Con-
firm the location of bystanders before moving, or
operating the machine.
• Always keep the travel alarm and horn in working
condition (if equipped). It warns people when the
machine starts to move.
• Use a signal person when moving, swinging, or
operating the machine in congested areas. Coor-
dinate hand signals before starting the machine.
• Use appropriate illumination. Check that all lights
are operable before operating the machine. If any
faulty illumination is present, immediately repair it.
