GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY
If attachments or options other than those authorized by Komatsu are installed, this will not only affect the life of
the machine, but will also cause problems with safety.
When installing attachments not listed in this Operation and Maintenance Manual, contact your Komatsu distrib-
utor first. If you do not contact Komatsu, we cannot accept any responsibility for any accidents or failures.
General precautions
•
Read the instruction manual for the attachment carefully, and you must understand the operation
method completely before using the machine..
If you lose the instruction manual, be sure to order another copy from your Komatsu distributor.
•
To prevent serious personal injury or death caused by misoperation, you must not place your foot
on the pedal except when operating the pedal.
Precautions for removal and installation
When removing or installing an attachment, observe the following items and work safely.
•
Select a firm, level surface when installing or removing an attachment.
•
When working in cooperation with one or more other workers, decide signs and observe them when
performing the operation.
•
Use a crane when carrying heavy objects (more than 25 kg).
•
When removing a heavy part, always place a support in position before removing it.
When lifting a load with a crane, be particularly careful of the center of gravity.
•
It is dangerous to perform works when the load has been raised by a crane. Always lower the load
onto a stand and check that it is safe.
•
When leaving an attachment removed or installing it, place it in a stable position to prevent it from
falling over.
•
Never go under a load raised by a crane.
Always stand in a place which is safe even if the load should fall.
NOTICE
Qualifications are required to operate a crane. Never allow the crane to be operated by an unqualified
person.
For details of removal and installation operations, contact your Komatsu distributor.
