hours:
1 - Check the gearing chain tension.
2 - Check the wheel nut tightening.
• After the first 250 hours of use, carry out the following operations, in addition to those to be performed every 250
hours:
1 - Change the hydraulic circuit drain filter.
SYNTHETIC BIODEGRADABLE OIL TYPE HEES
On machines in which the synthetic biodegradable oil type HEES is used, carry out the following operations in addition to the routine maintenance:

2.1 SAFETY, NOISE AND VIBRATION PLATES
2.1.1 POSITION OF THE SAFETY PLATES
• The safety plates must always be legible and in go od co ndi tio ns ; for this reas on, if they are dirty with dust, oil or
grease, it is necessary to clean them with a solution made of water and detergent.
Do not use fuel, petrol or solvents.
• If the plates are damaged, ask for new ones to Komatsu Utility or to your Komatsu Utility Dealer.
• In case of replace men t o f a co mpo nent provided with a safety plate, ma ke sure that thi s pl ate is applied also on
the new part.
• The machine can be provided with other plates in addition to those indicated below; in any case, keep also to the
instructions given in the additional plates.

2.1.3 POSITION OF THE NOISE PLATES
• The noise plates must always be legible and in good conditions;
for this reason, if they are dirty with dus t, oil or greas e, it is ne cessary to c lean them with a solution made of water and detergent.
Do not use fuel, petrol or solvents.
• If the plates are damage d, ask for new ones to Komatsu Utility
or to your Komatsu Utility Dealer.
• In case of rep lacement of a component provided with a noise
plate, make sure that this plate is applied also on the new part.

2.1.4 VIBRATIONS TO WHICH THE OPERATOR IS SUBJECTED
• According to the results of the tests carried out to determine the vibrations transmitted to the operator by the ma-
chine, the upper limbs are subj ected to v ibrations lower than 2.5 m /sq.s ec., wh ile th e sea ted part of the bo dy is
subjected to vibrations lower than 0.5 m/sq sec.

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.
• When using the m achine or pe rforming maint enance op erations, follow all the safety rul es, precautions and in-
structions.
• When working with o ther operators or when the wor k site is often occupied by other o perators, make sure that
everyone knows and understands all the agreed sign als and , in any ca se, th at 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 the guards and c overs are in the correct position. Have guards and covers 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 remember to 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 lead to serious injuries or even death.
2.2.3 CLOTHING AND PERSONAL PROTECTION ITEMS
• Do not wear large or loose clothes, rings and watches and do
not approach the machine with loose 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 head-
phones 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 particularly useful when driving the equipment
connection pins with a hammer and when blowing compressed
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 hours with a noise lev el exceeding 90 dBA, it
is necessary to use headphones or ear plugs and to be particularly careful, especially at the end of the work shift.

2.2.4 UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS
• Any modification made without the authorization of Komatsu Utility can involve hazards.
• Before making a modification, consult your Komatsu Utility Dealer. Komatsu Utility declines any responsibility for
injuries or damage caused by unauthorized modifications.
2.2.5 LEAVING THE OPERATORS SEAT
• When leaving the operatorís seat, even if temporarily, make
sure that the machine is in a safe position (see “2.4.11 PARKING THE MACHINE”).
• Before leaving the operatorís seat, carr y out the following oper-
ations in the sequence indicated below:
1 - Rest the equipment on the ground.
RWA31780
2 - Apply the parking brake.
3 - Engage the safety device of the optional equipment c ontrol
pedal (if installed).
RWAA11160
RWAA12610
4 - Lock the equipment and travel control by shifting the sa fety
bars to the lock position.
5 - Stop the engine (see “3.8 STOPPING THE ENGINE”).
If you have to go so far away that you will not be able to see the
machine, extract the ignition key.
