SAFETY
S-19
Avoid Power Lines
Serious injury or death can result from contact with electric
lines.
Never move any part of the machine or load closer to any
electric line than 3 m (10 ft) plus twice the line insulator
length.
Precautions for Operation
If the front attachment or any part of the machine comes in
contact with an overhead obstacle, both the machine and
the overhead obstacle may become damaged, and personal
injury may result.
Take care to avoid coming in contact with overhead
obstacles with the bucket or arm during operation.
Precautions for Lightning
The machine is vulnerable to lightning strikes.
In the event of an electrical storm, immediately stop
operation, and take the following actions.
If you are around the machine, evacuate to a safe place far
away from the machine.
If you are in the cab, stay in the cab until lightning has
passed and safety is secured. Close the cab doors and
windows. Lower the bucket to the ground, and stop the
engine. Put your hands on your lap to avoid contact with
any metal surfaces. Never go out of the cab.
After the electrical storm has passed and safety is secured,
check all of the machine safety devices for any failure. If any
failed safety devices are found, operate the machine only
after repairing them.
