INTRODUCTION
Your Barko Mulcher has been designed and manufactured with high quality materials and care in workmanship. This
manual is intended as a permanent reference to aid professional operator's in their work, and should be available for
use at any time. If the machine is not equipped with this manual, ask your supervisor to obtain one for you.
Understand the correct servicing procedures before servicing the machine. It is important to know the correct
operating and servicing procedures of the mulcher and all safety precautions to prevent the possibility of property
damage and/or personal injury or death.
As a professional, trained operator, you are responsible for safety, both your own and that of your co-workers. Your
knowledge and use of all safety practices and correct servicing procedures in this manual, and your good judgement,
can be a major factor in preventing some of the thousands of injuries and deaths caused by industrial accidents each
year.
A professional operator should also be familiar with the information contained in other applicable sources such as
American National Standards, SAE, OSHA, etc.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Logging Safety Resource Guide (APA, 95-A-1) is available from the American Pulpwood Association. This guide lists
sources of videotapes, slide programs, movies, and publications on various aspects of logging safety.

SAFETY SUMMARY CONTINUED...
When you work on slopes there are several important points to consider:
Always use a seat belt when provided.
Speed of travel or working tools – higher speeds or sudden starts and stops can tend to make the machine
less stable
Terrain – soft ground, slopes, uneven surfaces (stumps, fallen trees and slash, rocks, valleys/rises, drop-offs or
ledges, overhangs), changing soil types, moisture, ice and snow affect the machine stability. Irregular terrain
must be traveled at slower speeds.
Direction of travel - Avoid operating the machine across the slope. When possible travel up or down slopes.
Place the heaviest end of the machine uphill and keep the load low to the ground. Turning uphill with an
articulated machine can increase the chance of tip-over.
Loads and shifting loads – Do not overload. Keep the load low and close to the machine. Contact with
overhead wires, trees, fallen trees or the ground can cause the load to shift unexpectedly and reduce stability.
Machine configuration – Will affect the weight distribution, the stability, the operating performance, and the
machine control on slopes.
Visibility – irregular, snow-covered or slash-covered terrain can reduce visibility in the path of the tracks or
wheels and to the surrounding area, the load, other vehicles, obstacles, and people.
Condition of the machine – Machine control and performance when operating on slopes may require special
machine maintenance or more frequent intervals. Fluid levels, track tension or tire inflation pressure can affect
machine control on slopes.
Do not operate a machine on a slope without proper training. Learn the stability limits of the machine by first
working on gentle slopes. Gain experience and improve skills over time by gradually increasing the angle of
slopes on which you are working. As operating conditions change make the appropriate decisions and
adjustments to maintain safe machine operation.

The following areas are the most common places for fires to start:

FIRE PREVENTION
This machine has several components which are at high temperatures under normal operating conditions, such as
engine, exhaust system, brake system and transmission. Also, electrical system (battery, electrical connectors, etc.)
can be a source of arcs or sparks if damaged or incorrectly maintained.
Excessive debris will increase the condition for a fire hazard. Flammable debris (twigs, leaves, straw, rags, etc.) must
be removed on a daily basison a daily basis
on a daily basison a daily basis
on a daily basis or more often if necessary from areas such as the engine, exhaust, battery, electrical
connectors, parking brake components, transmission area and belly pan, drive line, fuel, hydraulic and brake systems.
Clean machine often. Periodic high pressure washing of machine is suggested, especially if flammable liquid spills
have occurred.
The following list provides data which
will help to prevent fires.
- Do not use machine in areas with
explosive dust or gases. These
elements can be ignited by arcs,
sparks, hot components or fumes.
- Inspect cab, engine
compartment, and engine cooling
system every day. Clean if needed
to prevent overheating. Remove all
flammable material (rags, debris,
fluid spills, etc.)
- Inspect electrical system
for damage daily. Keep battery
terminals clean & tight. Replace or
repair any damaged part.
- Daily, inspect all fuel and
hydraulic oil tubes, hoses, and fittings
for damage and leakage. Tighten or
replace as needed. Always clean
fluid spills.
- Allow machine to cool down by
idling engine for a while before
shutdown. Many engine and
transmission fires start after shut-
down. This waiting time can be used
to inspect machine and perform
certain maintenance procedures.
- Keep fire extinguisher, water
hose connected to water tank, and
first aid kit where easily reached in
case of fire and keep these items
properly maintained.
- Operating personnel should
be instructed on what to do in case of
fire and be required to demonstrate
use of fire extinguisher and fire
suppression equipment.
- Any portable extinguisher or
fire suppression system carried on
machine that has been used, must be
recharged or replaced before
machine resumes operating.
Extinguisher manufacturers
recommended service interval
should be followed.
- Do not use ether or starting
fluids on diesel engines with glow
plugs. These starting aids can
explode and injure bystanders.
- Before doing welding of any
kind, clean machine and disconnect
battery cables. Cover rubber hoses,
battery, & other flammable parts.
Never ground arc welder or electrical
accessories through machine
components as arcing may occur
causing bearing damage. Keep fire
extinguisher nearby.
