CHAPTER 4 - Safety
CAUTION
Never perform maintenance on the machine when the power sources are connected or on.
CAUTION
Pressurised water might be in the circuit. Never uncouple any connection before completely draining the pressure circuit and
ensuring there is no danger of coming into contact with it. The same requirement applies to the oil hydraulic circuit.
CAUTION
Ensure all safety devices are connected and in good operating conditions. Never modify or by-pass any safety device.
CAUTION
REQUIREMENTS TO BE COMPLIED WITH BEFORE STARTING WORK:
•
a)
The operator must ALWAYS remain near the machine while using it.
The operators are responsible for using the equipment and for the damage it may cause to persons or property if it is
improperly operated. They must therefore always strictly prevent OTHER PERSONS FROM APPROACHING THE MACHINE
DURING OPERATION.
•
b)
Before leaving the operating machine unattended, ensure there are no unauthorised people and especially children in the
area where the machine is to perform its work, and clearly affi x visible danger signs to the perimeter of the area in question
for greater safety.
CAUTION
During maintenance, as well as during operation, it is recommended to pay attention to the oil and/or engine temperature, which
may reach temperatures exceeding 50°C / 122°F in normal operation.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPERATING AT HIGH TEMPERATURES AND WITH PRESSURISED OILS
When performing any kind of operation on the internal combustion engine and/or components controlled by it, it is indispensable
for:
•
The engine to be off and cold.
•
The engine and/or hydraulic oil to be cold and not pressurised.
•
The oil containment caps must be unscrewed slowly, for the internal pressure to decrease without causing forceful sprays.
CAUTION
The high temperatures and high pressure the oils are subject to, may create hazardous situations, causing severe injury and/or
the death of the person who either intentionally or inadvertently acts on the engine and/or the components controlled by it unless
the precautions described above are complied with.
CAUTION: FIRE PREVENTION
•
The fuel and oil might ignite if they come into contact with a fl ame.
•
Do not start the engine if any fumes or fuel leaks are detected near it.
•
Keep fl ames away from these fl ammable liquids.
•
Stop the engine, do not smoke and do not use mobile phones when refuelling and or fi lling oil.
•
Tightly screw on all the caps of tanks containing fuel and oil.
•
Refuelling and fi lling with oil must be performed in well ventilated areas.
•
Keep the fuel and oil stock in a protected area, suited to containing fl ammable and/or explosive substances and not accessible
to unauthorised persons.
•
The external surfaces of the internal combustion engine must always be free from fl ammable materials such as leaves, twigs,
paper, rags, oil and solvent soiling, etc.
•
Always check the fuel, oil tanks and the connecting pipes to ensure there are no leaks.
•
Caution - the engine releases carbon monoxide, which is a toxic and poisonous gas. Do not run the engine in a closed place
in order to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
•
Fuel is extremely fl ammable and explosive. Turn off the engine and let it cool before refuelling.
