Safety
The Sand Pro traction unit complies with ANSI
B71.4-2004 Standards at the time of production.
However, when attachments are installed on the
machine additional weight is required to comply to
the standards.
Improper use or maintenance by the operator or
owner can result in injury.
To reduce the potential for
injury, comply with these safety instructions and always
pay attention to the safety alert symbol
, which means
Caution
,
Warning
, or
Danger
—“personal safety
instruction.”
Failure to comply with the instruction
may result in personal injury or death.
Safe Operating Practices
The following instructions are from ANSI B71.4-2004.
Training
•
Read the operator’s manual and other training
material carefully. Be familiar with the controls,
safety signs, and the proper use of the equipment.
•
If the operator or mechanic can not read the
language of is the owner’s responsibility to explain
this material to them.
•
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these
instructions to use or service the machine. Local
regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
•
Never operate while people, especially children, or
pets are nearby.
•
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible
for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or
their property.
•
Do not carry passengers.
•
All drivers and mechanics should seek and obtain
professional and practical instruction. The owner is
responsible for training the users. Such instruction
should emphasize:
– the need for care and concentration when
working with ride-on machines;
– control of a ride-on machine sliding on a slope
will not be regained by the application of the
brake. The main reasons for loss of control are:
◊ insufficient wheel grip;
◊ being driven too fast;
◊ inadequate braking;
◊ the type of machine is unsuitable for its task;
◊ lack of awareness of the effect of ground
conditions, especially slopes;
◊ incorrect hitching and load distribution.
•
The owner/user can prevent and is responsible for
accidents or injuries occurring to himself or herself,
other people, or property.
Preparation
•
While operating, always wear substantial footwear,
long trousers, hard hat, safety glasses, and ear
protection. Long hair, loose clothing, or jewelry may
get tangled in moving parts. Do not operate the
equipment when barefoot or wearing open sandals.
•
Warning
—Fuel is highly flammable. Take the
following precautions:
– Store fuel in containers specifically designed for
this purpose.
– Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while
refueling.
– Add fuel before starting the engine. Never
remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while
the engine is running or when the engine is hot.
– If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the
engine but move the machine away from the
area of spillage and avoid creating any source of
ignition until fuel vapors have dissipated.
– Replace all fuel tanks and container caps securely.
•
Replace faulty mufflers.
•
Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories
and attachments are needed to properly and
safely perform the job. Only use accessories and
attachments approved by the manufacturer.
•
Check that operator’s presence controls, safety
switches and shields are attached and functioning
properly. Do not operate unless they are functioning
properly.
