ACTION IF FIRE OCCURS
If a fire occurs, escape from the machine as follows.
● Turn the starting switch OFF and stop the engine.
● Use the handrails and steps to get off the machine.
WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID

FALLING OBJECTS, FLYING OBJECTS AND INTRUDING OBJECTS
PREVENTION
On jobsites where there is a hazard that falling objects, flying
objects, or intruding objects may hit or enter the operator's cab,
consider the operating conditions and install the necessary
guards to protect the operator.
● When carrying out demolition or breaker operations, install
a front guard and use a laminated coating sheet on the
front glass.
● When working in mines or quarries where there is a hazard
of falling rock, install FOPS (Falling Objects Protective
Structure) and a front guard, and use a laminated coating
sheet on the front glass.
● When carrying out the above operations, always close the
front window. In addition, always ensure that by standers
are a safe distance away and are not in hazard from falling
or flying objects.
● The above recommendations assume that the conditions
are for standard operations, but it may be necessary to add
additional guards according to the operating conditions on
the jobsite.
Always contact your Komatsu distributor for advice.
