6.2 Precautions when installing attachments
Swinging the upper structure on slopes
If heavy work equipment is installed, the overrun of the
swing becomes greater (the distance from the point where
the operator operates the left control lever to stop the swing
to the point where the upper structure stops completely), so
there is danger of mistaking the distance and hitting some-
thing.
Always operate so that there is an ample margin to the stop-
ping point.
Furthermore, the hydraulic drift also becomes larger when
the work equipment is stopped in mid-air, it will gradually
move down under its own weight).
Always follow the correct procedure when installing the
boom and arm. If the correct procedure is not followed, this
may lead to serious damage or injury, so please consult your
KOMATSU distributor before carrying out installation.
If long work equipment is installed, the working range will
suddenly become larger, so there is danger of mistaking the
distance and hitting something.
Always operate the work equipment so that there is ample
space from any obstacles in the area
