Safety Devices; Locking The Controls; Engine Stop Knob - Kubota KX91-3a2 Operator's Manual

Safety rules

Safety devices

Before starting the excavator, all safety devices must be installed properly and operational. No manipulation of
safety devices, e.g. the shorting of limit switches, is allowed.
Protective devices may only be removed after
the excavator is standing still and shut down
•
and secured against restarting (starter switch in STOP position and key switch removed).
•
The excavator is equipped with an anti-theft system. The anti-theft system makes it difficult to steal the
•
machine. However, it can not fully prevent theft.

Locking the controls

The control levers (1 and 3) on the right and left, the drive levers
and the dozer control lever are not operational when the console
(4) is raised. This circumstance allows safe mounting and
dismounting. The console is unlocked and raised with the
control lever lock (2).
The boom swing and the dozer functions are not
secured by the control lever lock.

Engine stop knob

If the electrical system fails, the engine can be shut off manually.
To stop the engine:
Push the lever (1) upwards until the engine is stopped.
