SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION
2-23
q
If there is an area to the rear of the machine which cannot
be seen, position a signal person. Take special care not to
hit other machines or people when turning or swinging the
machine.
Always be sure to carry out the above precautions even when
the machine is equipped with mirrors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN TRAVELING
q
Never turn the key in the starting switch to the OFF position. It is dangerous if the engine stops when the
machine is traveling, because it becomes impossible to operate the steering. If the engine stops, depress the
brake pedal immediately to stop the machine.
q
When traveling on flat ground, keep the work equipment at
height (A) of 70 - 90cm above the ground surface.
If it is necessary to operate the work equipment control
lever, stop the machine, then operate the lever.
q
When traveling on rough ground, travel at low speed and do not operate the steering suddenly. There is dan-
ger that the machine may turn over. The work equipment may hit the ground surface and cause the machine to
lose its balance, or may damage the machine or structures in the area.
q
Avoid traveling over obstacles when possible. If the machine has to travel over an obstacle, keep the work
equipment close to the ground and travel at low speed. Never travel over obstacles which make the machine
tilt strongly to one side.
q
When traveling or carrying out operations, always keep a safe distance from people, structures, or other
machines to avoid coming into contact with them.
q
When passing over bridges or structures, check first that the structure is strong enough to support the mass of
the machine.
q
When operating in tunnels, under bridges, under electric wires, or other places where the height is limited,
operate slowly and be extremely careful not to let the work equipment hit anything.
q
If you drive the machine at high speed continuously for a long time, the tires will overheat and the internal
pressure will become abnormally high. This may cause the tires to burst. If a tire bursts, it produces an
extremely large destructive force, and this may cause serious injury or accident.
If you are going to travel continuously, please consult your Komatsu distributor.
