b General Safety Information
Operators and maintenance personnel must always comply with the following safety precautions. These precautions are given here
for your safety. Review them carefully before operating the machine and before performing general maintenance or repairs.
Supervising personnel should develop additional precautions relating to the specific work area and local safety regulations.
• Read this instruction manual carefully before operating the
machine. Ensure this instruction manual is kept with the
machine at all times and is in good condition - replace the
manual immediately if it becomes dirty, damaged or has
been lost.
• Establish a training programme for all operators to ensure
safe operation.
• Before operating the machine ensure you have had proper
training and are fully conversant with the machine and its
operation - if in doubt ASK! Make sure you, and anyone else
who uses the machine, have been trained to operate it
SAFELY.
• Do not operate the machine unless you are physically and
mentally fit.
• Do not operate the machine if you are unfit to do so because
of alcohol or drugs etc.
• Personal Protective Equipment must be used as necessary.
• Be familiar with all prohibited work areas such as excessive
slopes and dangerous terrain conditions.
• Do not carry passengers.
• Ensure all bystanders are well clear before moving the
machine.
• Check your local laws and regulations, the engine may
require a spark arrester etc.
• Decals are fitted to the machine for safety purposes and
MUST be replaced immediately if they are unreadable or
lost. If the machine is repaired and parts have been replaced
on which decals were fixed ensure new decals are fitted
before the machine is put into service.
• Always make sure there is adequate ventilation around the
machine. Never run the engine in an enclosed area without
good ventilation or next to combustible material.
• Stop the engine before refuelling. If there is a spillage mop it
up and do not start the engine until it is safe again.
• Do not smoke when refuelling.
• The exhaust gets extremely hot. Do not place anything on
top of it and keep all combustible materials clear. Do not
attempt any maintenance on a hot engine.
• Do not clean or inspect the machine with the engine running.
• Do not operate the machine if it damaged, improperly
adjusted or not completely and correctly assembled.
• Do not smoke, weld, grind in the vicinity of a battery being
charged.
• Before carrying out maintenance on the hydraulic system
ensure the hydraulic fluid is cool and there is no residual
pressure in the hydraulic circuit - hydraulic fluid leaking
under pressure can penetrate the skin.
• Only charge batteries in a well ventilated area to prevent risk
of explosion from a build up of hydrogen.
• Before performing any maintenance on the machine, place a
warning tag on the machine to prevent accidental start-up
and/or remove the start key, if fitted and turn battery isolator
to off. Put the articulation lock into position to prevent the
front and rear chassis moving and creating a crushing zone.
• Ensure the ROPS/FOPS is not damaged.
• Keep footplates and steps free from dirt, oil, snow, ice etc.
• Check seat belt daily.
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Do
not add coolant to a hot engine.
• Always park the machine on firm, level ground where it will
not cause an obstruction or danger - chock the rollers if
necessary. DO NOT LEAVE THE ENGINE RUNNING or
the start key in the start switch.
• Before taking the machine on public roads ensure the
machine complies with all road traffic regulations and obey
all driving laws.
• If the machine is fitted with ROPS/FOPS and the machine
should roll over, the Operator must grip the steering wheel
firmly allowing the seat belt to restrain him/her in the seat
until the machine comes to rest.
If any site personnel has any concerns with any safety aspect of
the machine, the machine must not be used until all safety
concerns have been rectified or an authorised person has
checked and satisfied the site personnel the machine is safe to
use.

b Safety Interlock System
An inhibitor switch in the seat is operated by the weight of the
operator and prevents the engine from being started unless the
operator is sat on the seat.
The transmission will also be inoperative unless the operator is
sat on the seat.
If the operators weight is removed from the seat while the
machine is in motion, drive to the drums will cease after a few
seconds and the machine will be brought to a halt and the engine
will stop.
b ROPS
Although ROPS (roll over protective structure) seem to be
relatively maintenance-free, regular periodic inspections to
ensure ROPS are damage free and thus capable of functioning
in a rollover cannot be over emphasized.
Through periodic inspections, cracks, loose bolts, damage, and
other normal wear and tear related problems can be eliminated
before they become serious.
Proper inspection and maintenance procedures can ensure that
ROPS will perform the life saving function they are designed
for and expected to do.
b Seat Belt
