2.13 Placing into Operation
•
Every time before placing the machine into operation, perform a
thorough walk-around inspection of the machine.
•
Check the machine for loose pins, cracks, tears, wear, leaks
and deliberate damage.
•
Never place a damaged machine into operation.
•
Make any necessary repairs immediately, prior to resuming
operation.
•
Close and lock all hoods and covers, then inspect to make sure
all warning signs are in place and legible.
•
Make sure all windows and mirrors are clean. Secure door
and windows against unintentional movements.
•
Make certain no one is working on or under the machine and
warn any persons standing nearby that the machine will be
placed into operation.
•
Prior to placing the machine into operation, adjust the driver’s
seat, mirrors, and ventilation system settings (if equipped) so
you can work in comfort and safety.
2.14 Starting the Machine
•
Before starting, check all indicator lamps and instruments to
make certain they are working properly.
•
Start the engine in the manner described in the operating
instructions.
•
Only allow the engine to run in enclosed rooms if there is ade-
quate ventilation. If necessary, open doors and windows to
ensure a proper supply of fresh air.
•
Bring the engine and hydraulic oil up to operating temperature.
Low oil temperatures can cause the control system to respond
sluggishly.
•
Move the machine carefully to open ground and then check the
functionality of the lift arm and drive controls as well as the sig-
nal and lighting equipment.
