Precautions When Using Rops; Precautions For Attachments - Komatsu 930E-2 Shop Manual

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING ROPS

•
If ROPS is installed, the ROPS must never be removed when operating the machine.
•
The ROPS is installed to protect the operator if the machine should roll over. It is designed not only to support
the load if the machine should roll over, but also to absorb the impact energy.
•
The ROPS installed on equipment manufactured and designed by Komatsu Mining Systems, Inc. fulfills all of the
regulations and standards for all countries, but if it is modified or repaired without authorization from Komatsu
Mining Systems, Inc., or is damaged when the machine rolls over, the strength will drop and it will not be able to
fulfill its function properly. It can only display its performance if it is repaired or modified in the specified way.
•
When modifying or repairing the ROPS, always consult the authorized regional Komatsu Mining Systems, Inc.
distributor.
•
Even if the ROPS is installed, it cannot show its full effect if the operator does not fasten the seat belt properly.
Always fasten the seat belt when operating.

PRECAUTIONS FOR ATTACHMENTS

•
When installing and using optional equipment, read the instruction manual for the attachment and the information
related to attachments in this manual.
•
Do not use attachments that are not authorized by Komatsu Mining Systems, Inc., or the authorized regional
Komatsu Mining Systems, Inc. distributor. Use of unauthorized attachments could create a safety problem and
adversely affect the proper operation and useful life of the machine.
•
Any injuries, accidents, and product failures resulting from the use of unauthorized attachments will not be the
responsibility of Komatsu Mining Systems, Inc., or the authorized regional Komatsu Mining Systems, Inc.
distributor.
