Use Handrails and Steps
Falling is one of the major causes of personal injury.
When you get on and off the machine, always face the
machine and maintain a three-point contact with the
steps and handrails.
Do not use any controls as handholds.
Never jump on or off the machine. Never mount or
dismount a moving machine.
Be careful of slippery conditions on platforms, steps, and
handrails when leaving the machine.
Never get on and off the machine with tools in your
hands.
Never Ride Attachment
Never allow anyone to ride on attachment or the load. This
is an extremely dangerous practice.
Adjust Operator's Seat
A seat which is poorly adjusted for the individual operator,
or the work to be undertaken, may quickly fatigue the
operator leading to misoperation.
The seat should be adjusted whenever the operator of
the machine changes.
The operator should be able to fully depress the pedals
and to correctly operate the control levers with his back
against the seat back.
If not, move the seat forward or backward, and check
again.
Adjust the rear view mirror position so that the best rear
visibility is obtained from the operator's seat. If the mirror
is broken, immediately replace it with a new one.
