If it is missing or damaged, place an order with an authorized our Distributor for a replacement. If you have any questions, please consult an au- thorized our Distributor. (1) Most accidents, which occur during operation, are due to neglect of precautionary measures and safe- ty rules. Sufficient care should be taken to avoid these accidents. Erroneous operation, lubrication or maintenance services are very dangerous and may cause injury or death of personnel. Therefore all precautionary measures, NOTES, DANGERS, WARNINGS and CAUTIONS contained in the man- ual and on the machine should be read and under- stood by all personnel before starting any work with or on the machine. (2) Operation, inspection, and maintenance should be carefully carried out, and safety must be given the first priority. Messages of safety are indicated with marks. The safety information contained in the manual is intended only to supplement safety codes, insurance requirements, local laws, rules and regulations. (3) Messages of safety appear in the manual and on the machine: All messages of safety are identified by either word of "DANGER", "WARNING" and "CAUTION". 1) DANGER- Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury and is represented as follows: SDANGER 2) WARNING- Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury and is represented as follows: SWARNING 3) CAUTION- Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in mi- nor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against possible damage to the machine and its components and is represented as fol- lows: SCAUTION (4) It is very difficult to forecast every danger that may occur during operation. However, safety can be en- sured by fully understanding proper operating pro- cedures for this machine according to methods recommended by Manufacturer. (5) While operating the machine, be sure to perform work with great care, so as not to damage the ma- chine, or allow accidents to occur. (6) Continue studying the manual until all Safety, Oper- ation and Maintenance procedures are completely understood by all persons working with the ma- chine.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 0-3 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SWARNING The proper and safe lubrication and maintenance for this machine, recommended by Manufacturer, are outlined in the OPERATOR’S MANUAL for the machine. Improper performance of lubrication or mainte- nance procedures are dangerous and could result in injury or death. Read and understand the MAN- UAL before performing any lubrication or mainte- nance. The serviceman or mechanic may be unfamiliar with many of the systems on this machine. This makes it important to use caution when perform- ing service work. A knowledge of the system and or components is important before the removal or dis- assembly of any component. Because of the size of some of the machine compo- nents, the serviceman or mechanic should check the weights noted in this manual. Use proper lifting proce- dures when removing any components. Weight of com- ponents table is shown in the section: SPECIFICATIONS. The following is a list of basic precautions that must al- ways be observed. (1) Read and understand all Warning plates and de- cal on the machine before Operating, Maintaining or Repairing this machine. (2) Always wear protective glasses and protective shoes when working around machines. In partic- ular, wear protective glasses when using ham- mers, punches or drifts on any part of the machine or attachments. Use welders gloves, hood/gog- gles, apron and the protective clothing appropriate to the welding job being performed. Do not wear loose fitting or torn clothing. Remove all rings from fingers, loose jewelry, confine long hair and loose clothing before working on this machinery. (3) Disconnect the battery and hang a "Do Not Oper- ate" tag in the Operators Compartment. Remove ignition keys. (4) If possible, make all repairs with the machine parked on a level, hard surface. Block the ma- chine so it does not roll while working on or under the machine. Hang a "Do Not Operate" tag in the Operators Compartment. (5) Do not work on any machine that is supported only by lift, jacks or a hoist. Always use blocks or jack stands, capable of supporting the machine, before performing any disassembly. SWARNING Do not operate this machine unless you have read and understand the instructions in the OPERATOR’S MANUAL. Improper machine operation is dangerous and could result in in- jury or death. (6) Relieve all pressure in air, oil or water systems be- fore any lines, fittings or related items are discon- nected or removed. Always make sure all raised components are blocked correctly and be alert for possible pressure when disconnecting any device from a system that utilizes pressure. (7) Lower the bucket, dozer, or other attachments to the ground before performing any work on the ma- chine. If this cannot be done, make sure the buck- et, dozer, ripper or other attachment is blocked correctly to prevent it from dropping unexpectedly. (8) Use steps and grab handles when mounting or dismounting a machine. Clean any mud or debris from steps, walkways or work platforms before us- ing. Always face to the machine when using steps, ladders and walkways. When it is not pos- sible to use the designed access system, provide ladders, scaffolds, or work platforms to perform safe repair operations. (9) To avoid back injury, use a hoist when lifting com- ponents which weigh 20 kg (45 lbs) or more. Make sure all chains, hooks, slings, etc., are in good condition and are the correct capacity. Be sure hooks are positioned correctly. Lifting eyes are not to be side loaded during a lifting operation. (10) To avoid burns, be alert for hot parts on machines which have just been stopped and hot fluids in lines, tubes and compartments. (11) Be careful when removing cover plates. Gradually back off the last two capscrews or nuts located at opposite ends of the cover or device and carefully pry cover loose to relieve any spring or other pres- sure, before removing the last two capscrews or nuts completely. (12) Be careful when removing filler caps, breathers and plugs on the machine. Hold a rag over the cap or plug to prevent being sprayed or splashed by liquids under pressure. The danger is even greater if the machine has just been stopped be- cause fluids can be hot. (13) Always use the proper tools that are in good con- dition and that are suited for the job at hand. Be
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 0-4 sure you understand how to use them before per- forming any service work. (14) Reinstall all fasteners with the same part number. Do not use a lesser quality fastener if replace- ments are necessary. (15) Repairs which require welding should be per- formed only with the benefit of the appropriate ref- erence information and by personnel adequately trained and knowledgeable in welding proce- dures. Determine type of metal being welded and select correct welding procedure and electrodes, rods or wire to provide a weld metal strength equivalent at least to that of the parent metal. Make sure to disconnect battery before any weld- ing procedures are attempted. (16) Do not damage wiring during removal operations. Reinstall the wiring so it is not damaged nor will be damaged in operation of the machine by contact- ing sharp corners, or by rubbing against some ob- ject or hot surface. Do not connect wiring to a line containing fluid. (17) Be sure all protective devices including guards and shields are properly installed and functioning correctly before starting a repair. If a guard or shield must be removed to perform the repair work, use extra caution and replace the guard or shield after repair is completed. (18) The maintenance and repair work while holding the bucket raised is dangerous due to the possibil- ity of a falling attachment. Don’t fail to lower the at- tachment and place the bucket to the ground be- fore starting the work. (19) Loose or damaged fuel, lubricant and hydraulic lines, tubes and hoses can cause fires. Do not bend or strike high pressure lines or install ones which have been bent or damaged. Inspect lines, tubes and hoses carefully. Do not check for leaks with your hands. Very small (pinhole) leaks can re- sult in a high velocity oil stream that will be invisi- ble close to the hose. This oil can penetrate the skin and cause personal injury. Use card-board or paper to locate pinhole leaks. (20) Tighten connections to the correct torque. Make sure that all heat shields, clamps and guards are installed correctly to avoid excessive heat, vibra- tion or rubbing against other parts during opera- tion. Shields that protect against oil spray onto hot exhaust components in event of a line, tube or seal failure must be installed correctly. (21) Do not operate a machine if any rotating part is damaged or contacts any other part during opera- tion. Any high speed rotating component that has been damaged or altered should be checked for balance before reusing. (22) Be careful when servicing or separating the tracks (crawlers). Chips can fly when removing or install- ing a track (crawlers) pin. Wear safety glasses and long sleeve protective clothing. Tracks (crawlers) can unroll very quickly when separated. Keep away from front and rear of machine. The ma- chine can move unexpectedly when both tracks (crawlers) are disengaged from the sprockets. Block the machine to prevent it from moving.
