OM2220 8/11 Safety - Section 22
Page 22-1
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
The following pages give an explanation of the
warning, caution, and service instruction plates and
decals attached to the truck. The plates and decals
listed here are typical of this Komatsu model, but
because of customer options, individual trucks may
have plates and decals that are different from those
shown here.
The plates and decals must be kept clean and legible.
If any decal or plate becomes damaged or illegible,
replace it with a new one.
GRADE/SPEED CHART
A grade/speed retard chart is located on the left front
post of the operator's cab. It provides the
recommended maximum speeds to be used when
descending various grades with a loaded truck. Always
refer to the decal in operator's cab. This decal may
change with optional truck equipment such as wheel
motor drive train ratios, retarding grids, tire sizes, etc.
KEY SWITCH
A warning decal is below the key switch located to the
right of the steering column on the instrument panel.
The warning stresses the importance of reading the
operator's manual before operation.
ROPS/FOPS
A plate attached to the right rear corner of the cab
states that the Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS)
and Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS) meet
various SAE performance requirements.
The plate also contains a WARNING about making
modifications or repairs to the structure. Unauthorized
modifications or repairs will void the certification.
