MADILL 1200
WHILE POSITIONING FELLING HEAD
CAUTION!
FELLING HEAD CAN CONTACT TRACKS AND OPERATOR’S CAB. USE CAUTION
WHEN WORKING IN CLOSE AND WHILE SWINGING.
OVERLOADING
Overloading is hazardous. Make certain you are within the safe load and work radius lim-
its of your machine for prevailing conditions. Uneven or sloping terrain will reduce the
load and working radius of your machine. The 1200 was developed to handle trees up to
22 inches in diameter. Trees larger than 22 inches in diameter must only be directionly
felled. Attempting to handle trees larger than 22 inches in diameter may result in:
machine rollover which may cause serious injury or death, damage or an increased rate
of wear that will not be covered by warranty.
Before leaving cab, stop saw blade, lower attachment to ground and stop engine.
NEVER approach the attachment until all components have come to a complete stop
and engine has been shut down.
BEFORE LEAVING CAB
Stop sawblade, lower attachment to ground and stop engine. NEVER approach the
attachment until all components have come to a complete stop and engine has been
shut down.
PURGE FAN
This machine is equipped with a fan that may unexpectedly purge debris from the radia-
tor. Flying debris is a hazard and can cause injury. Stay clear of the machine until engine
has stopped.
FIRE PREVENTION
Due to the operating conditions found in mechanized logging there are significant fire
hazards that can arise over time if the equipment is not kept clean and well maintained
on a continual basis. In order to minimize the fire hazards present on the machine it is
important to reduce or eliminate both potential sources of fuel for a fire and potential
sources of ignition. Sources of fuel can accumulate due to normal operation, service or
component failure. These include such materials as needles, leaves, bark, wood chips,
sawdust, hydraulic oil, grease and fuel. Sources of ignition include overheating engine
and hydraulic components, exhaust components, and sparks due to damage to the
electrical system.
The following precautions must be taken for the safe operation of the machine:
- Accumulation of needles, leaves, bark, wood chips, sawdust or other debris must be
removed daily.
- Hydraulic leaks, accumulations of grease, fuel or oil must be repaired and cleaned up
immediately.
