SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety labels
Safety labels are affixed to the machine to inform the operator or maintenance worker on the spot when carrying out operation or maintenance of the machine that may involve hazard. This machine uses “Safety labels using words“ and “Safety labels using pictograms“ to indicate safety procedures.
Safety labels using pictogram
Safety pictograms use a picture to express a level of hazard­ous condition equivalent to the signal word. These safety picto­grams use pictures in order to let the operator or maintenance worker understand the level and type of hazardous condition at all times. Safety pictograms show the type of hazardous condi­tion at the top or left side, and the method of avoiding the haz­ardous condition at the bottom or right side. In addition, the type of hazardous condition is displayed inside a triangle and the method of avoiding the hazardous condition is shown inside a circle.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) 0.
Install ROPS when working in places where there is danger of falling rocks, such as in mines and quarries, or in places where there is danger of rolling over. If ROPS is installed, do not remove it when operating the
machine.
ROPS is installed to protect the operator when machine
rolls over. When machine rolls over, ROPS supports its weight and absorbs its impact energy.
If the ROPS is welded, or holes are drilled in it, or it is modi-
fied in any other way, its strength may drop. Consult your Komatsu distributor before carrying out any modification.
If ROPS is damaged or deformed by falling objects or by
rolling over, its strength will be reduced and it will not be able to fulfill its function properly. In such cases, always Komatsu contact your distributor for advice of the method of repair. Even if ROPS is installed, always fasten your seat belt prop­erly when operating the machine. If you do not use your fasten your seat belt properly, it cannot display its effect.
PRECAUTIONS FOR ATTACHMENTS 0.
When installing optional parts or attachments, there may be problems with safety or legal restrictions, There-
fore contact your Komatsu distributor for advice.
Any injuries, accidents, or product failures resulting from the use of unauthorized attachments or parts will not
be the responsibility of Komatsu.
When installing and using optional attachments, read the instruction manual for the attachment, and the gen-
eral information related to attachments in this manual.
UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATION 0.
Any modification mode without authorization from Komatsu can create hazards. Before making a modification, consult your Komatsu distributor. Komatsu will not be responsible for any injuries, accidents, or product failures resulting from modifications
made without authorization from Komatsu.
SAFETY AT WORKSITE 0.
Before starting operations, thoroughly check the area for any unusual conditions that could be dangerous. When carrying out operations near combustible materials such as thatched roofs, dry leaves or dry grass, there
is a hazard of fire, so be careful when operating.
Check the terrain and condition of the ground at the worksite, and determine the safest method of operation.
Do not carry out operations at places where there is a hazard of landslides or falling rocks.
If water lines, gas lines, or high-voltage electrical lines may
be buried under the worksite, contact each utility and iden­tify their locations. Be careful not to sever or damage any of these lines.
Take action to prevent unauthorized people from approach-
ing the jobsite. When working on public roads, position flagmen and erect barriers to ensure the safety of passing traffic and pedestri­ans.
When traveling or operating in shallow water or on soft
ground, check the shape and condition of the bedrock, and the depth and speed of flow of the water before starting operations.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY
Always design and maintain the roads on the jobsite so that
the machines can travel safely.
WORKING ON LOOSE GROUND 0.
Avoid traveling or operating your machine too close to the edge of cliffs, overhangs, and deep ditches. The
ground may be weak in such areas. If the ground should collapse under the weight or vibration of the machine, there is a hazard that the machine may fall or tip over. Remember that the soil after heavy rain or blasting or after earthquakes is weak in these areas.
When working on embankments or near excavated ditches, there is a hazard that the weight and vibration of
the machine will cause the soil to collapse. Before starting operations, take steps to ensure that the ground is safe and to prevent the machine from rolling over or falling.
DO NOT GO CLOSE TO HIGH-VOLTAGE CABLES 0.
Do not travel or operate the machine near electric cables. There is a hazard of electric shock, which may cause serious injury or property damage. On jobsites where the machine may go close to electric cables, always do as follows. Before starting work near electric cables, inform the local
power company of the work to be performed, and ask them to take the necessary action.
A0060820
Even going close to high-voltage cables can cause electric
shock, which may cause serious burns or even death. Always maintain a safe distance (see the table on the right) between the machine and the electric cable. Check with the local power company about safe operating procedure before starting operations.
To prepare for any possible emergencies, wear rubber
shoes and gloves. Lay a rubber sheet on top of the seat,
