Operation
• additional seat belt
• Roll over Protective Structure (ROPS)
Never use the work tool as a work platform.
Report any needed repairs that were noted during
oper
ation.
Do not go close to the edge of a cliff, an excavation,
or an
overhang.
If the machine begins to sideslip, perform the
following procedure:
•
Discard the load.
• Turn the machine downhill.
Be careful to avoid any condition which could cause
the machin
e to tip. The machine can tip when you
work on hills, banks, and slopes. Also, the machine
can tip when you cross ditches, ridges, or other
obstacles.
Whenever possible, operate the machine up the
slope
s an
d down the slopes. Avoid operating the
machine across the slope, when possible.
Keep the machine under control. Do not overload
t
he machin
e beyond capacity.
Be sure that the towing eyes and towing devices are
adequa
te.
Towing eyes and towing devices should only be
used t
o recover the machine.
Connect trailing equipment to a drawbar
or to a hitch
only.
When you maneuver the machine to connect
equipme
nt, be sure that there are no personnel
between the machine and trailing equipment. Block
the hitch of the trailing equipment in order to align
the equipment with the drawbar.
Never straddle a wire cable or allow other personnel
t
o
straddle a wire cable.
When you maneuver to connect the equipment,
make sur
e that no personnel are between the
machine and trailing equipment. Block the hitch of
the trailing equipment in order to align the
equipment with the drawbar.
Know the maximum dimensions of your machine.
Always keep the Rollover Protective Structure
(RO
PS) in
stalled during machine operation.
Lifting Capacities
Maintain control of the machine. Do not overload the
machine beyond the machine capacity. Ensure that
the correct load chart is referenced. Loads must be
within the capabilities of the machine. Lifting
capacity decreases as the load is moved further
from the machine.
Use lifting slings that are approved and use lifting
s
lings that
are load tested. Also, all wire ropes or
chains must be properly maintained. The wire ropes
and chains must meet local regulations. You must
know the load carrying capacity of these devices
and you must know the correct use of these devices.
Limitations on Lifting Loads That
Exceed the Working Range
Do not load the boom beyond the maximum load
capacity. See Operation and Maintenance Manual,
“Lifting Capacities” for the load capacity of the
boom.
When the load capacity is exceeded, refer to
“Amer
ica
n National Standards A.N.S.I. B3014”.
Also, follow the procedures that are listed below:
• Inspect the wire cable for defects prior to the lift
oper
ation.
• Inspect the wire cable for defects after the lift
oper
ation.
• Do not exceed the load capacity of the boom.
• The load must be handled safely in order to
minimize
tipping effects.
• The lift operation and the inspections must be
made under co
ntrolled conditions by an
authorized person.
Electrical Power Lines
Serious injury or death by electrocution can
result if the machine or attachments are not kept
the proper distance from electrical power lines.
Use the following charts in order to determine the
safe distance from high voltage wires during these
conditions:
• machine operation
• machine transportation
