SAFETY
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS COMMON TO OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
DO NOT GET CAUGHT IN ARTICULATING PORTION
If the clearance at the articulating portion changes and you get
caught in it, you will suffer serious personal injury or death. Do
not allow anyone to come inside the articulation range.
The clearance in the area around the work equipment changes
according to the movement of the link. If you get caught, you will
suffer serious personal injury or death. Do not allow anyone to
come close to any rotating or extending/retracting portion.
PRECAUTIONS RELATED TO PROTECTIVE STRUCTURES
The operator's compartment is equipped with a structure (such as
ROPS, FOPS) to protect the operator by absorbing the impact
energy. As for the machine equipped with ROPS, if the machine
weight (mass) exceeds the certified value (shown on the
ROLL-OVER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE (ROPS)
CERTIFICATION plate), ROPS will not be able to fulfill its function.
Do not increase machine weight beyond the certified value by
modifying the machine or by installing attachments to the machine.
Also, if the function of the protective equipment is impeded, the
protective equipment will not be able to protect the operator, and
the operator may suffer injury or death. Always observe the
following.
If the machine is equipped with a protective structure, do not
remove the protective structure and carry out operations without
it.
If the protective structure is welded, or holes are drilled in it, or
it is modified in any other way, its strength may drop. Consult
your Komatsu distributor before carrying out any modifications.
If the protective structure is damaged or deformed by falling objects or by rolling over, its strength will be reduced
and it will not be able to fulfill its function properly. In such cases, always contact your Komatsu distributor for
advice on the method of repair.
Even if the protective structure is installed, always fasten your seat belt properly when operating the machine.
If you do not fasten your seatbelt properly, it cannot display its effect.

Komatsu will not be responsible for any injuries, accidents, product failures or other property damages resulting
from modifications made without authorization from Komatsu.

consult your Komatsu distributor.
