This section contains safety precautions to follow when operating and maintaining machine.

Read and understand the precautions in this section as well as throughout this manual and

follow them when operating or maintaining machine. Failure to follow safety precautions

could result in property damage, serious injury or death to the operator or by standers.

Safety Precautions

All operators should be familiar with the following issues when using this machine. In case

machine is used by a hired worker or is rented, the employer or renter shall give practical

instructions covering the following issues to the user.

• It is essential to familiarize yourself with controls, safety labels and the proper use

of machine.

• Never allow people unfamiliar with these instructions to operate or service machine.

Do not let anyone under 18 years of age to operate this machine. Local regulations

may restrict the minimum age for operating a machine. Consult your local authority.

• The operator is responsible for the accidents or hazards caused to other people or

their properties as a result o operating this machine.

• Always keep in mind that care and concentration is required when working with a

load-carrying machine.

• Loss of control on a slope cannot be regained by the application of brake. Main

reasons for the loss of control are:

→ insufcient grip of tires.

→ excessive speed.

→ misjudging of the ground conditions, especially inclination.

→ excessive load.

→ incorrect distribution of load.

Training

Safety 1

-3-

• Always wear protective footwear, long trousers, hardhat, safety glasses and ear

protection when operating or servicing machine. Proper clothing will minimize

the chance of injury. Do not operate machine if you have long hair, loose clothing,

or jewelry; all of which can get tangled in moving parts. Do not operate machine

barefoot or with open sandals.

• Prepare beforehand the working rules and procedures such as signaling and trac

control for the work place. Following such rules will reduce the risk of accidents.

• Perform daily pre-startup inspection (see Preparation, page 12) before starting

machine. Repair or replace damaged parts before starting machine.

• Never handle oil or grease, service machine or recharge battery in the presence of

re or spark.

Preparation

Operation

This machine is intended for carrying solid stuff, luggage and similar objects. Carrying other

kinds of objects may damage machine. Avoid carrying uid stuff in order to keep motor away

from troubles.

The stability of machine is affected by speed, rate of steering, terrain and load. Always pay

close attention to these factors or loss of control or tipping over could occur, resulting in

property damage, serious injury or death.

General Driving

• Do not operate machine under the inuence of alcohol or drugs. Do not operate

machine when you are tired, ill, or not t to operate machine.

• Before starting and moving machine, scan around your surroundings and make

sure all persons and other vehicles are a safe distance away from machine.

• Do not drive machine in the rain or through the ground surface with pool of water in

order to keep machine from getting wet.

Safety

General Driving

• Always check for obstacles before operating on new terrain.

• Always travel slowly and use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Be

alert when traveling on changing terrain.

• Drive at a safe speed, taking into account surface gradient, surface conditions and

load.

• Do not make sudden maneuvers. Sudden start, stop, or turn can make machine lose

control and could cause a tip over. Be especially cautious when traveling on soft or

wet ground.

• On a slippery surface, travel slowly and exercise caution to reduce the chance of

skidding or sliding out of control. Never operate on ice.

• Always make certain that there is no obstacle or person behind machine when

backing up. Make certain that it is safe to back up, then move slowly and avoid

sharp turns.

• To reduce the risk of tipping over, pay special attention when encountering an

obstacle or a slope, or when braking on a slope or during a turn. See Driving on a

slope on the next page.

• Never attempt to drive over a large obstacle such as rock or fallen tree.

• Do not operate machine near the edge of a cliff, an overhang or a landslide area.

• Use an observer to help direct machine when visibility is poor, terrain is rugged or

hilly, or maneuvering room is limited. An observer should be able to see machine

and its immediate surroundings, and should give pre-arranged signals to direct the

operator.

Driving on a Slope

• Driving on a slope can be dangerous. It can result in a tip over and cause serious

inj u r y or death. Always follow p r oper procedures fo r driving on a slop e as

described in this manual.

• When carrying no load, do NOT use machine on a slope steeper than 15 degrees.

When carrying a load, observe the load limit according to the inclination (see

Loading and Driving with the Load, page 6).

• Check terrain carefully before attempting to drive on a slope. Driving on a slope in a

wrong manner can cause a loss of control or a tip over.

• Never drive on a slope that you are not comfortable with. Avoid a slope that is so

rough, slippery, or loose that you feel like you could tip over.

• Do not ride when you are driving down a slope. When driving down a slope, stop

and turn the main switch to [LO]. Go down at a reduced speed with the operator

walking behind machine. Use motor speed to help keep machine speed low.

• When driving up a slope, proceed at a steady rate of speed and accelerator position.

• Never move accelerator lever suddenly.

• Drive straight up or down a slope. Avoid turning on a slope. Avoid driving machine

across a slope.

• If motor loses traction during a climb and cannot make it to the top of a slope, do

not try to turn machine around. Carefully back down slowly, straight down a slope.

• When going over the top of a slope, go slow; an obstacle, a sharp drop, another

vehicle or person could be on the other side of the crest.

• Without a load, drive machine backwards up a slope (Steering wheel toward the top)

when climbing, and drive it forward when going down a slope.

• With a load, drive machine forward up a slope (Steering wheel away from the top)

when climbing, and drive it backwards when going down a slope. Be especially

cautious when operating on a slope with a load.
