SAFETY
Always keep at a distance from the edges of building pits and
slopes.
Avoid any operation that might be a risk to machine stability.
Never travel across slopes; always keep the working equip-
ment and the load close to the ground, especially when trav-
elling downhill.
On sloping terrain always adapt your travelling speed to the
prevailing ground conditions. Never change to a lower gear
on a slope but always before reaching it.
Before leaving the driver's seat always secure the machine
against inadvertent movement and unauthorized use.
SPECIAL WORK IN CONJUNCTION WITH UTILIZA-
TION OF THE MACHINE AND MAINTENANCE AND
REPAIRS DURING OPERATION; DISPOSAL OF
PARTS AND CONSUMABLES
Observe the adjusting, maintenance and inspection activities
and intervals set out in the Operation,- Lubrication and Main-
tenance Manual, including information on the replacement of
parts and equipment. These activities may be executed by
skilled personnel only.
Brief operating personnel before beginning special operations
and maintenance work, and appoint a person to supervise the
activities.
In any work concerning the operation, conversion or adjust-
ment of the machine and its safety-oriented devices or any
work related to maintenance, inspection and repair, always
observe the start-up and shut-down procedures set out in the
Operation,- Lubrication and Maintenance Manual and the
information on maintenance work.
Ensure that the maintenance area is adequately secured.
If the machine is completely shut down for maintenance and
repair work, it must be secured against inadvertent starting
by:
locking the principal control elements and removing the
ignition key and/or
attaching a warning sign to the main switch
Carry out maintenance and repair work only if the machine is
positioned on stable and level ground and has been secured
against inadvertent movement and buckling.
To avoid the risk of accidents, individual parts and large
assemblies being moved for replacement purposes should be
carefully attached to lifting tackle and secured. Use only suit-
able and technically perfect lifting gear and suspension sys-
tems with adequate lifting capacity. Never work or stand
under suspended loads.
