GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

2.2 GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

2.2.1 GENERAL SAFETY RULES

Only trained and authorized personnel can use the machine and perform maintenance operations.
Follow all the safety ru les, pr ec au tion s a nd in str u cti ons whe n us ing the ma ch ine or per for ming maintenance op-
erations.
When working with other op erators or whe n the work site is of ten occupied by othe r operators, m ake sure that
everyone knows and understands all the agreed signals and, in any case, that everyone works in such a way as to be able to see the machine and to be visible to the operator.

2.2.2 SAFETY DEVICES AND GUARDS

Make sure that all th e guards and covers ar e in the correct positio n. Have guards and co vers changed or re-
paired if damaged. Neither use the machine without guards, nor remove the guards when the engine is running.
Always use the proper safety devices to lock the machine when parking and fasten the safety belt.
For the safety devices, see 3.1 SAFETY LOCKS”.
For the safety belt, see 3.5.6 SAFETY BELT”.
Do not remove the safety devices and always keep them in good operating conditions.
Improper use of the safety devices may result in serious injuries or even death.
2.2.3 CLOTHING AND PERSONAL PRO­TECTION ITEMS
Do not wear large or l oose clothes, rings and w atches and do
not approach the machine with lo ose long hair, since they can get entagled in the moving parts of the machine and cause seri­ous injuries and damage. Avoid also wearing clothes dirty with oil or fuel , since they are flammable.
Wear a hard hat, goggles, safety shoes, mask, gloves and
headphones when operating the machine or performing mainte­nance operations.
Always wear safety goggles, a hard hat and heavy gloves if your
job involves scattering metal chips or minute materials; these precautions are particular ly useful when driving the equipment connection pins with a hamm er and whe n blowing co mpressed air into the air filter and the radiator to clean them. During these operations, make also sure that no one is standing or working near the machine without the necessary protections.
When working for 8 ho ur s with a noise level exc ee din g 90 dB A,
it is necessary to use headphones or ear plugs and to be partic­ularly careful, especially at the end of the work shift.

and the tracks; get on and off the machine very carefully.
Never hold or rest on the control levers.
Either when getting on and when getting off the machine, al-
ways maintain three points of contact (holding or resting points), in order to avoid losing your balance and falling down.
Tighten the handle connection screws if they are loose and
clean the handles and tracks if they are dirty with oil or grease. Carefully clean the cab floor if it is dirty with oil, grease, mud or rubble.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

2.2.7 PREVENTING FIRES DUE TO FUEL AND OIL

Fuel, oil and some types of antifreeze can be easily ignited if they get in contact with a flame. Fuel is particularly flammable and therefore extremely hazardous.
Keep any naked flame away from flammable fluids.
Stop the engine and do not smoke when refuelling.
To p up with fuel and oil only after stopping the engine and in
well ventilated areas.
Top up with fuel and oil in a well delimited area and do not allow
unauthorized persons to approach.
When refuelling, hold th e fuel gun firmly and keep it constantl y
in contact with the filler until you hav e fi nishe d, in orde r to avoid sparks due to static electricity.
After topping up, tighten the safety caps of the fuel and oil tanks
securely.
RWA18670
RWA00970
Do not fill the tank completely , in order to leave room for the fuel
to expand.
In case some fuel is spilled, wipe it up immediately.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

2.2.8 PREVENTING BURNS

If the engine coolant, the engine oil and the hydraulic oil are hot,
use heavy cloths a nd wear gloves, heavy clothing and safety goggles before carrying out any check or touching the hot parts.
Before checking the coo lant level, stop the engine and let the
fluid cool down. If a check is necessary du e to the overheating of the engine, slowly loosen the radiato r cap to releas e any residual p ressure before removing it. The hot fluid that spurts out may cause seri­ous burns.
Before checking the engine oil and hydraulic circuit oi l levels,
stop the engine and let the oil cool down. The hot oil that can be sprayed out of the tank may cause serious burns.
2.2.9 PREVENTING DAMAGE DUE TO AS­BESTOS POWDER
RWA00990
Asbestos powder can be hazardous to your health if it is in-
haled.
If you handle materials containi ng asbestos fibers, keep to the
instructions given below: 1 - Do n ot use compressed air, but only aspirators to clean the
machine and make sure that the room in which you are working is properly ventilated.
2 - Use low-pressure water to kee p down the dust when cl ean-
ing.
3 - If there is danger that there m ay be asbestos powder in the
air, operate the machine with the wind to your bac k when ev ­er possible.
4 - Even if the cab provides suitable protection, use an ap-
proved and homologated respira tor.
5 - The powder gathered during the cleaning operations must
be dampened and put in a sealed and marked container, so that it can be safely d ispos ed of ac co rding to the regulations in force.
