If someone stands near the machine when this is
swinging or in reverse travel, the same can hit or run
over this person causing heavy injuries or even
death.
To avoid accidents due to swinging or reverse travel
check the area around the machine. Before reverse
travel or swinging the machine, make sure that
nobody is staying within its working reach.
Always pay attention for the presence of people
within the working area. Use horn or other signals to
warn bystanders before starting machine.

bility for signalling.

condition.
