Document Title:
Safety concerns everybody! 191
Profile:
BHL, BL70 [GB]
Safety concerns everybody!
Always follow the instructions in the machine's operator's manual.
The operator's manual should always be kept in the cab for easy reference.
We have spent many hours engineering and producing a machine with a high level of safety and efficiency. All this time may
be wasted if an individual who is about to perform service on any of our machines does not read through the safety
instructions or does not follow them: for example, does not replace guards, climbs on slippery machine parts instead of
using a ladder, grabs on to hoses instead of the provided handles or uses the wrong tools for the job.
Always use genuine (intended and adapted) spare parts to maintain safe and efficient machine function.
Machines seldom cause accidents. Instead, people do.
A safety-conscious person and a well-maintained machine constitute a safe, efficient and profitable combination.
Any person who does not follow the safety instructions and who ignores the warnings in this manual must make
sure that their work method is safe. Otherwise, there is a great risk of serious accidents and injuries, perhaps even
fatalities.
