Keep Riders off Machine
Riders on machine are subject to injury such as being struck
by foreign objects and being thrown off the machine.
Only the operator should be on the machine. Keep riders
off.
Riders also obstruct the operator's view, resulting in the
machine being operated in an unsafe manner.
If the machine is equipped with a second seat and
someone other than the operator is on board, the person
must always stay in the second seat with the seat belt
fastened.
Precautions for Operations
Investigate the work site before starting operations.
Be sure to wear close fitting clothing and safety
equipment appropriate for the job, such as a hard hat,
etc. when operating the machine.
Keep bystanders and obstacles clear of the area of
machine operation.
Keep persons other than the operator away from areas
where there is danger, such as from flying objects.
Always be aware of the surroundings while operating.
When working in a small area surrounded by obstacles,
take care not to hit the upperstructure against obstacles.
When loading onto trucks, bring the bucket over the truck
beds from the rear side. Take care not to swing the bucket
over the cab or over any person.
