SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION
2-25
PROHIBITED OPERATIONS
q
It is dangerous to excavate the bottom of a rock face.
Never do this.
q
When digging, never thrust the bucket into a load at an
angle. This will bring an excessive load to bear on the
machine and will reduce the service life of the machine.
q
It is dangerous to apply drive force when excavating a rock
face. In addition, an excessive load will be brought to bear
on the machine and this will cause damage to the machine.
q
Never carry out digging operations on a downhill slope. An
excessive load will be brought to bear on the machine and
this will cause damage to the machine.
q
It is dangerous to use the bucket or lift arm for crane oper-
ations, so do not carry out such operations.
q
Do not pass the bucket over the head of other workers or
over the operator's seat of dump trucks or other hauling
equipment. The load may spill or the bucket may hit the
dump truck and cause serious injury or property damage.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING
q
When using the machine, to prevent the machine from overturning due to overloading and to avoid damage to
the work equipment, do not exceed the maximum permitted load or performance of the machine.
q
If the engine cannot be started again after it has stopped, immediately operate the work equipment control
levers to lower the work equipment to the ground. (After the engine stops, the accumulator allows the work
equipment to be operated for a limited time.)
q
Be careful not to approach too close to the edge of cliffs. When making embankments or landfills, or when
dropping soil over a cliff, dump one pile, then use the next pile of soil to push the first pile.
q
The load suddenly becomes lighter when the soil is pushed over a cliff or when the machine reaches the top of
a slope. When this happens, there is danger that the travel speed will suddenly increase, so be sure to reduce
the speed.
q
When the bucket is fully loaded, never start, turn, or stop
the machine suddenly. There is danger of the machine
turning over.
