SAFETY
SECURE FOOTING FOR SAFE
OPERATION.
Check, that the machine footing is level and
firm to avoid the skid or overturn. If you need
to operate the machine on the shoulder of a
road or a grade. check the ground for
levelness and stability prior to operation.
BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT TURNOVER.
The operating radius should be as small as
possible when using the heavy bucket, and
swing the boom slowly to prevent a turnover.
Also, watch for buried objects during digging
operation to prevent a turnover.
AVOID UNDERCUTTING THE MACHINE.
Do not try to dig close to the machine. lf you
undercut the machine, the footing may easily
collapses. Recede from the digging site
enough to keep a distance.
