Keep Riders off Machine

 Riders on machine are subject to injury such as being struck
by foreign objects and being thrown off the machine.
 Only the operator should be on the machine. Keep riders
off.
 Riders also obstruct the operator's view, resulting in the
machine being operated in an unsafe manner.
 If the machine is equipped with a second seat and
someone other than the operator is on board, the person
must always stay in the second seat with the seat belt
fastened.

Precautions for Operations

 Investigate the work site before starting operations.
 Be sure to wear close fitting clothing and safety
equipment appropriate for the job, such as a hard hat,
etc. when operating the machine.
 Keep bystanders and obstacles clear of the area of
machine operation.
Keep persons other than the operator away from areas
where there is danger, such as from flying objects.
 Always be aware of the surroundings while operating.
When working in a small area surrounded by obstacles,
take care not to hit the upperstructure against obstacles.
 When loading onto trucks, bring the bucket over the truck
beds from the rear side. Take care not to swing the bucket
over the cab or over any person.
