3.2 Clothing and protective gear

DANGER
To make the work safe, wear work clothes that fit properly, and use protective gear such as
a helmet and safety boots appropriate for the work.
Work clothes that do not fit might be caught in the rotating parts, leading to an unexpected
injury.

3.3 Cautions during refueling

CAUTION
When refueling, pay attention to the following points.
- Always refuel in a well ventilated area.
Make sure that the engine is stopped. Refuel after the engine cools down.
- Refuel on a flat surface area with no flammable objects around.
Be careful not to spill the fuel. If a spill occurs, wipe it well.
- Keep away from open fires while refueling.
(Smoking is strictly prohibited while refueling.)
Spills might occur if the fuel is filled to the top. After refueling, tightly close the tank cap by
twisting it to the end.

3.4 Preventing burns and accidentally being caught in the machine

WARNING
Start your work only after the machine cools down completely.
The muffler, in particular, gets very hot, and an accidental burn might occur.
The engine and engine oil also get very hot, so be careful not to get a burn.
If you perform maintenance work with the engine running, you might be
accidentally caught in the rotating parts such as the clutch and gear.
Perform maintenance work after the engine is stopped.
3.5 Tools and equipment, etc
WARNING
Qualification is required for handling the crane. Only someone qualified to operate a crane
and do hooking work can handle the crane.
Before operating the crane, for safety reasons, check the machine parts (especially the hook
and anti-vibration rubber) for any damage and loosened or missing bolts.
Stop the engine while hoisting.
Use a sufficiently strong wire rope.
For safety reasons, do not hoist to a height that is highter than necessary.
Do not use a wire rope if it is damaged.
For hoisting, use only the one point hoisting hook, and do not hoist at
other parts (such as the handle).
When using a hydraulic shovel as a crane, never hoist up and down suddenly.
When the machine is hoisted, never allow people or animals underneath the crane.
For safety reasons, do not hoist to a height that is higher than necessary.
Be careful not to cause accidents while operating the hoisting equipment.
Also make sure the hoisting equipment is not malfunctioning.
Use appropriate tools. Using tools that do not fit the parts will not only damage the parts but
also cause unexpected injury.
