Safety - Yours and Others
All machinery can be hazardous. When a product is correctly operated and maintained, it is a safe product to
work with. When it is carelessly operated or poorly maintained it can become a danger to you (the operator)
and others.
In this manual and on the product you will find warning messages, read and understand them. They inform you
of potential hazards and how to avoid them. If you do not fully understand the warning messages, ask your
employer or JCB dealer to explain them.
Safety is not just a matter of responding to the warnings. All the time you are working on or with the product
you must be thinking of what hazards there might be and how to avoid them.
Do not work with the product until you are sure that you can control it.
Do not start any work until you are sure that you and those around you will be safe.
If you are not sure of anything, about the product or the work, ask someone who knows. Do not assume
anything.
Remember:
•
Be careful
•
Be alert
•
Be safe.
