General Warnings
1. Read and become familiar with the machine manufacturer’s operator’s manual, including safety
information, before installing or using Topcon components.
2. Use extreme caution on the job site. Working around heavy construction equipment can be
dangerous.
3. DO NOT attach Topcon brackets, cables, or hose connections while the machine is running.
4. DO NOT allow any Topcon components to limit the visibility of the operator.
5. Use Ty-wraps to keep hoses and cables secured, and away from possible wear or pinch points.
6. Use eye protection when welding, cutting, or grinding on the machine.
7. Protect yourself at all times, and wear protective clothing when working on or near hydraulic lines.
Hydraulic lines can be under extreme pressure, even when the machine is turned off.
Relieve all pressure in the hydraulic lines before disconnecting or removing any
lines, fittings, or related components. If injury occurs, seek medical assistance
immediately.
When welding, use appropriate precautions and practices. After welding, all affected
areas should be painted with a rust inhibitor.
Disconnect all Topcon system electrical cables prior to welding on the machine.
DO NOT weld near hydraulic lines or on any equipment when in operation.
All mounting bracket welds must be secure and strong to prevent the sensor
equipment from vibrating excessively, or from detaching at the weld during
operation.
