WARNING
• Pressure in the system can cause injury. Follow all instructions in “METHOD FOR REMOVING AND
INSTALLING ATTACHMENT”.
• At the start, the machine performs a self-check and verifies the operation of the buzzer. In case the
buzzer is not functioning properly, contact the Komatsu distributor.
• The European Norm requires that the LOCK position must be seen from the operator's position.
Handling it without caution may cause serious personal injury or death. Check conscientiously that
the quick coupler is locked completely and securely. Observe the instructions of the manufacturer,
including when installing the safety devices, if necessary.
• Check everyday that hoses and fittings in the quick coupler system are in good condition. Hoses
and fittings at the arm end are easy to be damaged. Pay particular attention to them. Stop the opera-
tion if the piping is damaged or oil leaks. The bucket or attachment may drop due to loss of oil. It
may cause serious personal injury or death. If the damage of piping or oil leakage is found, repair it
before starting the operation again.
