NOTES ON SAFETY REGULATIONS
The procedures and precautionary measures concerning opera-
tion and maintenance only apply on the provision that the ma-
chine is used as intended.
CORRECT USE
A loader is a machine which has its own drive and which is mov-
ing on either tracks or wheels. By moving in forward direction, a
loader can load material or cut the ground with the work unit
(use of bucket) provided for loading which is attached to its front.
The standard working cycle of a loader comprises filling and lift-
ing the loading bucket, transporting material, and emptying the
loading bucket.
If you use the machine for any other purpose than specified
above, we will not accept any responsibility for safety. All consid-
erations concerning safety will then be up to the owner or the op-
erating and maintenance personnel. In any case, neither you nor
any other person are/is authorised to perform work and func-
tions explicitly prohibited in these operating instructions.
SAFETY NOTES IN THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Most accidents are caused by disregard of basic safety regula-
tions during operation and maintenance of machines. In order to
avoid accidents and thus damage to persons and property, read
all applicable safety notes and warnings in these operating in-
structions and on the machine, before you start operation or
maintenance of the machine and always adhere to these safety
notes and warnings.
The chapter "Safety" contains a summary of all safety notes ap-
plying to this machine. We cannot, however, predict all circum-
stances resulting in potentially dangerous situations when
operating and maintaining the machine. For this reason, it may
be possible that the safety notes in these operating instructions
and on the machine do not comprise all possible safety mea-
sures. If procedures or measures are required which are not rec-
ommended or approved, you must ensure that performing them
is neither dangerous nor involving potential damage to the ma-
chine. Should you have any doubt concerning safety of a proce-
dure, either directly contact Komatsu America International
Company or your local Komatsu dealer.
