Working with unfamiliar equipment can lead to careless injuries. Read and understand this manual and
the manual for your vehicle before assembling, installing, operating, maintaining, servicing, removing, or
moving this Postmaster/Slab Blaster. If there is anything in this manual you do not understand, contact
your dealer or Danuser Machine Company, Inc. The safe use of this attachment is strictly up to you, the
operator. If this attachment is used, loaned, or rented by any other person, it is the owner's responsibility
to make certain that the operator prior to operating:
• Reads and understands the Operator's Manuals
• Is instructed in safe and proper use
• The Postmaster/Slab Blaster is designed to be operated from the vehicle seat. Keep bystanders away
from the work area. Do not operate with another person in contact with any part of the Postmaster/
Slab Blaster.
• All operators of this attachment must read and understand this entire manual, paying particular
attention to safety messages and operation instructions, prior to assembling, installing, operating,
maintaining, servicing, removing, or moving the Postmaster/Slab Blaster.
• Please remember it is also important that you read, understand, and follow safety signs on the
attachment. Clean or replace all safety signs if they cannot be clearly read and understood. They are
there for your safety as well as the safety of others. Danuser Machine Company, Inc. will furnish
new safety signs upon request at no charge.
• All things with moving parts are potentially hazardous. There is no substitute for a cautious, safe-
minded operator who recognizes potential hazards and follows reasonable safety practices.
• Personal protection equipment including hard hat, safety glasses, safety shoes, gloves, and ear
plugs are recommended during assembly, installation, operation, maintenance, service, removal, or
movement of the attachment.
• When the use of hand tools is required to perform any part of assembly, installation, operation,
maintenance, or service of the attachment, be sure the tools used are designed and recommended by
the tool manufacturer for that specific task.
• Never check pressurized system for leaks with your bare hand. Wear proper hand and eye protection
and use wood or cardboard when searching for suspected leaks. Oil escaping from pinhole leaks
under pressure can penetrate skin and create a serious medical emergency. If any fluid is injected
into the skin, gangrene, blood poisoning, even death may result. Obtain medical attention
immediately.
• Always use two people to handle heavy, unwieldy components during assembly, installation,
maintenance, service, removal, or movement of the Postmaster/Slab Blaster.
• Never place any part of your body where it would be in danger if movement should occur during
assembly, installation, operation, maintenance, service, removal, or movement of the Postmaster/Slab
Blaster.
• Only properly trained people should operate this equipment. Do not allow anyone who has not read
this entire manual and understands the safety rules, safety signs, and operation instructions to use this
attachment.
• Never allow children to operate or be around the Postmaster/Slab Blaster.
• Do not allow riders on the equipment at any time. There is no safe place for any riders.
• Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which can hinder alertness or coordination while operating
this equipment. Consult your doctor about operating this equipment while taking prescription
medications.
WARNING
Safety

• Consult local utility companies to make certain there are no buried gas lines, electrical cables, etc., in
the work area before beginning operation.
• Do not drive posts near underground utility lines.
• Stay away from power lines when transporting, raising, or operating the Postmaster/Slab Blaster.
• Before you operate the attachment, check over pins and connections to be sure all are securely in
place. Make sure Postmaster/Slab Blaster is securely latched to the vehicle.
• Keep hands, feet, hair, jewelry, and clothing away from all moving and/or rotating parts.
• Never place yourself between the vehicle and the attachment.
• Never allow anyone under the attachment at any time.
• Keep clear of the Postmaster/Slab Blaster while in operation. Never position, align, or support the
post by hand or with any tool when the hammer is in operation.
• Do not exceed the vehicle's rated operating load. Use sufficient counterweights. Move the vehicle
slowly when the attachment is raised.
• Carry the load low. A heavy load can cause instability of the vehicle. Use extreme care during
travel. Slow down on turns and watch out for bumps. Use all safety devices, including a seat belt, as
recommended in the vehicle operator’s manual.
• Do not operate the Postmaster/Slab Blaster on steep hillsides. When operating the Postmaster/Slab
Blaster on uneven or hilly terrain, position the vehicle with the attachment uphill. With the
attachment downhill, the vehicle could tip when attempting to raise the attachment. Consult your
vehicle operator’s manual for maximum incline allowable.
• Always shut off the vehicle engine and remove the key before dismounting the vehicle, adjusting the
attachment, or servicing the Postmaster/Slab Blaster. Never leave equipment unattended with the
vehicle running.
• Never attempt repairs or adjustments while the equipment is in operation.
• Before disconnecting hydraulic lines or fittings be sure to relieve all pressure by cycling all hydraulic
controls after shutdown. Remember hydraulic systems are under pressure whenever the engine is
running and may hold pressure after shutdown.
• Always use care when operating the Postmaster/Slab Blaster. Most accidents occur because of
neglect or carelessness.
Safety is a primary concern in the design, manufacture, sale, and use of Postmasters/Slab Blasters.
Danuser confirms to you, our customer, our concern for safety.
