SAFETY INFORMATIONFOREWORD
q 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 pr ocedur es.
Example of safety label using words
Safety labels using pictogram
Safety pictograms use a picture to expre ss 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 h azardous condition at
all times. Safety pictograms show the type of hazardous condition at the top or left side, and the me thod 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.
Part No.
Komatsu cannot predict every circumstance that might involve a potential hazard in operation and maintena nce.
Therefore, the safety messages in this manual and on the machine may not include all po ssible safety precautions.
If any procedures or actions not specifically recommended or allowed in this manual are used, it is your responsibility to take the necessary steps to ensure safety.
In no event should you engage in prohibited uses or actions described in this manual.
The explanations, values, and illustrations in this manual were prepared based on the latest information available
at that time. Continuing improvem ents in the design of this machine can lead to changes in detail which may not
be reflected in this manual.

Noise emission levels1
Two labels ind icating the machine noise level a re affixed on the
machine.
q Sound pressure level at the operator’s station, measured
according to ISO6396 (Dynamic test method, simulated
working cycle).
q Sound power level emitted by the machine, measured
according to ISO 6395 (Dynamic test method, simulated
working cycle). This is the guaranteed value as specified
in European directive 2000/14/EC.
Vibration levels1
When used for its intended purpose, levels of vibration for the earth-moving machine transmitted from the operator’s seat are lower than or equal to the tested vibrations for the relative machinery class in compliance with ISO
7096.
The actual acceleration value for the hands and arms is less than or equal to 2.5 m/s². The actual acceleratio n
value for the body is less than or equal to 0.5 m/s².
These values were determined using a representat ive machine and measured during the typical operating condi-
tion indicated below according to the measurement procedures that are defined in the standards ISO 2631/1 and
ISO 5349.

Guide to Reduce Vibration Levels on Machine1
The following guides can help an operator of this machine to
reduce the whole body vibration levels:
1. Use the correct equipment and attachments.
2. Maintain the machine according to this manual
q Tire pressures (for wheeled machines), tension of crawler (fo r crawler machines)
q Brake and steering systems
q Controls, hydraulic system and linkages
3. Keep the terrain where the machine is working and traveling in good condition
q Remove any large rocks or obstacles
q Fill any ditches and holes
q Site manager should provide machine operators with machine and schedule time to maintain terrain con-
ditions
4. Use a seat that meets ISO 7096 and keep the seat maintained and adjusted
q Adjust the seat and suspension for the weight and size of the operator
q Wear seat belt
q Inspect and maintain the seat suspension and adjustment mechanisms
5. Steer, brake, accelerate, shift gears (for wheeled machines), and move the attachment levers and pedals
slowly so that the machine moves smoothly
6. Adjust the machine speed and travel path to minimize the vibration level
q When pushing with bucket or blade, avoid sudden loading; load gradually
q Drive around obstacles and rough terrain conditions
q Slow down when it is necessary to go over rough terrain
q Make the curve radius of traveling path as large as possible
q Travel at low speed when traveling around sharp curves
7. Minimize vibrations for long work cycle or long distance traveling
q Reduce speed to prevent bounce
q Transport machines long distances between worksites
8. The following guidelines can be effective to minimize risks of low back pain
q Operate the machine only when you are in good health.
q Provide breaks to reduce long periods of sitting in the same posture
q Do not jump down from the cab or machine
q Do not repeatedly handle and lift loads.
