SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION
PROHIBITED OPERATIONS
It is dangerous to excavate the bottom of a rock face. Never do
this.
It is dangerous to use the bucket or lift arm for crane operations,
so do not carry out such operations.
Do not pass the bucket over the head of other workers or over
the operator's seat of dump trucks or other hauling equipment.
The load may spill or the bucket may hit the dump truck and
cause serious personal injury or death.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING
When using the machine, to prevent personal injury caused by damage to the work equipment or by the machine
overturning due to overloading, do not exceed the permitted performance of the machine or the maximum
permitted load for the structure of the machine.
If the engine cannot be started again after it has stopped, immediately operate the work equipment control levers
to lower the work equipment to the ground. (After the engine stops, the accumulator allows the work equipment
to be operated for a limited time.)
Be careful not to approach too close to the edge of cliffs. When making embankments or landfills, or when
dropping soil over a cliff, dump one pile, then use the next pile of soil to push the first pile.
The load suddenly becomes lighter when the soil is pushed over a cliff or when the machine reaches the top of
a slope. When this happens, there is danger that the travel speed will suddenly increase, so be sure to reduce
the speed.
When the bucket is fully loaded, never start, turn, or stop the
machine suddenly. There is danger of the machine turning over.
