Preparing Precautions

Perform inspection and 
maintenance daily

Failure to notice or repair machine irregularities 
or damage can lead to accidents.

  Before operating, perform the prescribed 

inspections and make repairs immediately 
should any irregularities be found.

  If a failure that causes loss of control such 

as  steering,  service  brakes  or  engine 
occurs,  stop  the  machine  motion  as 
quickly as possible, follow the shutdown 
procedure,  and  keep  machine  securely 
parked until the malfunction is corrected.

Cautions in the operator’s 
compartment

  Remove  mud  and  grease  from  shoe 

soles  before  entering  the  operator’s 
compartment.

  Pedaling  the  machine  with  the  shoes 

with  mud  and  grease  will  cause  a  slip 
accident.

  Do not leave the parts or tools around the 

operator’s seat.

  Do  not  leave  any  plastic  bottles  in  the 

operator’s  compartment  or  attach  any 
suction  cups  on  the  window  glass.  The 
plastic bottle or suction cup act as a lens 
and can cause fire.

  Do  not  use  the  mobile  phone  during 

traveling or working.

  Do not bring combustibles or explosives 

into the operator’s compartment.

Emergency Exit

If  you  should  become  trapped  inside  the 
cab, remove the rear window to get out.

In case of emergency
1. Pull off ring (A) and remove the tip of the 

rubber wedge.

2. Grasp the tip, pull, and remove the entire 

rubber wedge.

3. Kick  off  the  rear  window.  Note  that  the 

glass  may  break.  Be  careful  not  to  get 
injured.

  After smoking, be sure to tightly close the 

lid of the ashtray to put out the match or 
cigarette.

  Do  not  leave  the  cigarette  lighter  in  the 

operator’s  compartment.  When  the 
room  temperature  rises,  the  lighter  may 
explore.
