GENERAL PRECAUTIONS COMMON TO OPERATION AND MAINTE-
NANCE
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STANDING UP FROM OPERATOR'S SEAT
Before standing up from the operator's seat, such as when
opening or closing the front window or ceiling window, when re-
moving or installing the bottom window, or adjusting the posi-
tion of the seat, always lower the work equipment to the
ground, set lock lever (1) to lock position (L), and stop the en-
gine.
If the control levers are touched by mistake, there is danger
that the machine may suddenly move and cause serious per-
sonal injury or death.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN LEAVING MACHINE
If the proper procedures are not taken when parking the machine, the machine may suddenly move off by itself,
and this may lead to serious personal injury or death. Always observe the following.
When leaving the machine, always lower the work equipment
to the ground, set lock lever (1) to lock position (L), and stop
the engine. In addition, lock all places and always take the key
with you and keep it in the specified location.
EMERGENCY EXIT FROM OPERATOR'S CAB
•
If it should be impossible to open the door of the cab, break the window glass with the hammer supplied
and use the window as an emergency escape.
For details, see "EMERGENCY ESCAPE HAMMER (3-115)" in this manual.
•
When escaping, remove the pieces of glass from the window frame first and be careful not to cut yourself
on the glass. Be careful also not to slip on the broken pieces of glass on the ground.
DO NOT GET CAUGHT IN WORK EQUIPMENT
The clearance in the area around the work equipment changes according to the movement of the link. If you are
caught, this may lead to serious personal injury or death. Do not allow anyone near any of the rotating or tele-
scopic parts.
