OPERATE THE RIGID DUMP TRUCK SAFELY
When pulling out of the loading area, avoid hitting
debris, rocks and loading rigid dump truck overflow that
can cause tire damage. Allow the clean-up dozer
sufficient time to clear the loading area.
Watch where you are going. Stay away from people, the
edge of cliffs; slide areas, other machines and vehicles,
etc.
While traveling on the haul road, maintain a sufficient
distance behind the rigid dump truck ahead (depending
on roads, speeds, and haul road conditions). This
practice should always be followed to allow sufficient
safe maneuvering and stopping room.
During all operations, the rigid dump truck may vibrate
or shake to some extent. Therefore, operate the rigid
dump truck in such a way that your body is exposed to
as little vibrations as possible.
Have the operator's seat properly adjusted and
wear the seat belt.
Pick the smoothest and safest path for the rigid
dump truck.
Adjust the speed of the rigid dump truck to the
terrain.
