Arrangement of signalman and flagman Learn how to use the gestures required in a specific job and identify the person who are responsible for making gestures. All person must fully understand all gestures. The operator must only make a respond to the gesture of the designated person, but must obey the shutdown gesture issued by anyone at any time.

there is looseness, the hose or pipe will be damaged due to vibration or contact with other parts during operation. This may cause high- pressure oil to be sprayed out, thus causing fire or injury. Protection against harmful gases When working in poor ventilation or sealed environment, pay attention to wearing protective masks and adding exhaust devices.
Precautions before preparation and during start-up Precautions for preparation before operation: Understand the operation environment: before operation, understand the operation area to ensure operation safety. Check the terrain and ground conditions in the operation area, check the building structure during indoor operation, and take safety measures if necessary. Remove dangerous objects and obstacles in ditches, underground pipelines, trees, cliffs, overhead power lines, falling rocks and landslides.

handrail, support your weight in a three- point safe posture ( hands and feet) . Do not pull the control operation lever. Check whether there are " do not operate it" warning signs or similar signs on the cab, brake or start switch. If such warning signs exist, please do not start the engine or touch any operating lever.
Preheat engine and hydraulic fluid. In cold weather, after the mini- excavator is started, the engine should idle for 2 to 5 minutes. If the control lever is operated without warm- up, the mini- excavator will not react or move quickly or properly, which may cause accidents.

Sign on precautions The operation manual determines the matters needing special attention when using the mini- excavator as follows: It means that failure to observe the precautions will result in death or serious injury. It means that failure to observe the precautions will result in death or serious injury. It means there is a risk of injury ifprecautions are not followed.

Precautions during operation of the mini-excavator: Ensure good line of sight: when working in a dark place, turn on the work lights and headlights of the mini- excavator, and install additional lighting, ifnecessary. When the line of sight is poor due to bad weather (fog, snow, rain or haze), stop operating the mini- excavator until the line of sight improves.

On uneven roads, you should keep the mini- excavator walking at a low speed to avoid sudden starting, stopping or changing direction. Otherwise, the working device may come into contact with the ground and cause the mini- excavator to lose balance and damage or damage the building structure in the surrounding area.
Page 22
Do not reverse down the slope. Do not change the direction of movement of the mini- excavator on a slope or cross slope. First return to the flat ground, and then choose another path. When moving on gentle slopes covered with grass or dead leaves, or on wet metal plates or frozen ground, the mini- excavator may slip sideways.
Page 23
The mini-excavator should keep a safe distance from the high-voltage cable during the driving or working. High voltage cables buried underground ( as shown in the figure below) . Before construction, confirm with relevant personnel whether there are underground cables at the construction site.
Page 24
Do not work in the environment with collapse or rockfall hazards, and take corresponding protective measures. When the mini- excavator is operated on a slope or ramp, the swing or operating device may cause the mini- excavator to lose stability and overturn. Do not operate the mini-excavator on a slope as far as possible.
Page 25
When the mini-excavator is running or working, pay attention to the height between the mini- excavator and the top of the construction environment. Please do not make the mini- excavator overload or overlength during hoisting. Ov erload can result in the overturn of the mini- excavator, thus resulting in serious injury to personnel or death.
Traction precautions: Serious injury or death may result from improper operation, use of wrong cables or improper inspection when towing the mini- excavator. This can be dangerous if the cable is broken or disengaged. Please use the steel wire rope matching the traction force, and do not use the twisted, twisted or even damaged cable;...

Leveling Put the bucket working device close to the mini-excavator body. Slowly push the soil away from the side of the mound. When the height of the soil mound is low, push the soil from its top. If the load is too heavy, raise or lower the bulldozer blade for the mini-excavator. Handling rubber caterpillar band: Due to the use of rubber, the rubber caterpillar band has an inherent weakness, that is, lack of strength.
Do not use the bucket operation device to rotate the frame when raising it in front of the mini-excavator (there is no rotation on the mini-excavator). Otherwise, the load will be concentrated on the caterpillar band, and the single point is to twist the track, resulting in rapid damage and falling off of the caterpillar band.

In order to avoid hitting the air, during crushing, the hammer head shall be properly aligned with the object to be crushed. Do not pry the working surface with a hammer, and do not pry the working surface when it is broken; Do not move the hammer head when breaking. On the same surface, do not impact continuously working surface for more than 30 seconds.
If it is necessary to park or tilt the mini-excavator on a slope, park the mini- excavator firmly and prevent the mini- excavator from moving. When parking on the street, grids, warning signs, lights, etc. shall be used to make the mini-excavator easy to see even at night to avoid collision with other vehicles.
Page 32
During loading and unloading, the mini- excavator may overturn or fall. Please take the following safety measures: Select a solid and flat ground and keep a sufficient distance from the shoulder; Fix the ramp of sufficient strength and size to the truck compartment, the slope of the ramp shall not exceed 15 degrees.
described below. Do not operate the mini- excavator in any other way, otherwise the mini- excavator may be out of balance. Do not carry out hoisting operation when there are operators on the mini- excavator. Please lift the mini- excavator slowly to avoid overturning. Keep all personnel away from the operation area during hoisting.

Leakage of lubricating oil or fuel oil can cause fire disaster. Do not twist, bend or strike the hose. Twisted, bent or cracked pipes, metal pipes or hoses shall not be used, otherwise explosion may occur. Retighten the loose joint. Precautions for operating high temperature and high pressure parts: 1 .Please shut down the engine and wait for the mini-excavator to cool down before maintenance.
positive (+) and negative (-) clamps of the battery charging line or contact the mini- excavator. Wear goggles and gloves when maintaining the battery. 3 . If having any questions to consult during use and maintenance, you can contact the company' s sales or after- sales personnel at any time to learn more about the use and maintenance of the equipment.
