GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
LIFTING CAPACITY
Never attempt to lift a load which would exceed the lift capac-
●
ity of the machine shown in the appropriate lift capacity chart.
Exceeding the lift capacity of the machine could cause the
machine to tip over or cause the load to fall. The lift capacity
charts are shown in pages 56 to 68, and are affixed inside the
operators cabin.
Be careful to use the correct lift capacity chart for your
●
machine considering the boom type, the arm length, and the
undercarriage attachments installed.
● Lifting operations should always be conducted on firm flat
ground. Do not attempt lifting operations on slopes or on
unstable ground.
Always select L mode for lifting operations.
●
SPECIAL HOOK
When carrying out lifting work, a special lifting hook or lifting
●
eye is necessary.
The lifting hook must be fitted with a safety latch to prevent
●
accidental un-hooking of the load.
Check safe working load of lifting equipment.
