Protective Structure Canopy And Cab - Kubota KX015-4 Operating Instructions Manual

Protective structure canopy and cab

The excavator is equipped with a protective structure that protects the operator from severe injury or
death if the excavator falls over or overturns and in the case of falling objects.
Canopy and cab were constructed in accordance with current safety standards and tested for verification as:
Roll-over protection
Tipping-over protective structure
Driver protection
To ensure greatest protection by means of this protective structure,
the following applies:
The seat belt must be fastened while the excavator is being op-
!
erated.
Do not make any structural changes to the protective structure.
!
In the event of damage, please contact your KUBOTA dealer.
!
(Do not repair!)
Never operate the excavator without the protective structure.
!
Use utmost care to avoid any risk of tipping, slipping, or other potential risks implied when lifting loads.
The operator must
drive at reduced vehicle speed,
!
avoid sudden braking,
!
avoid sudden steering movements,
!
make sure the load does not swing when travelling.
!
With the use of a hydraulic hammer or another attachment for demolition work, where material (e.g. asphalt) is
removed and can uncontrollably sputter away, a gravel guard is recommended for protection.
For demolition (according to EN 474-1, Annex G), e.g. tearing down walls, the corresponding protective equipment
is required (e.g. gravel guard).
If a front protective grid is required, a KUBOTA gravel guard (accessory) can be mounted.
