Move and Operate Machine Safely

• Bystanders can be run over.
• Take extra care not to run over bystanders. Confirm the
location of bystanders before moving, or operating the
machine.
• Always keep the travel alarm and horn in working
condition (if equipped). It warns people when the
machine starts to move.
• Use a signal person when moving, or operating the
machine in congested areas. Coordinate hand signals
before starting the machine.
• Use appropriate illumination. Check that all lights are
operable before operating the machine. If any faulty
illumination is present, immediately repair it.
• Always keep the cab door closed while operating the
machine.
• Check the mirrors and the monitors in the CAB for
problems. If there are problems, replace the problem
parts or clean the mirrors, cameras and monitors.
Refer to Camera Monitor section on the cleaning of the
camera and monitor.
