KEEP MACHINE CLEAN

If you get on or off the machine or carry out inspection and maintenance when the machine is dirty with mud or
oil, there is a hazard that you will slip and fall. Wipe off any mud or oil from the machine. Always keep the machine
clean.
If water gets into the electrical system, there is a hazard that it
will cause malfunctions or misoperation. If there is any
misoperation, there is danger that the machine may move
unexpectedly and cause serious personal injury or death. When
washing the machine with water or steam, do not allow the water
or steam to come into direct contact with electrical components.
When washing the machine with high-pressure water, direct
spray onto camera may cause trouble. Defective camera cannot
monitor surrounding area. When cleaning camera, do not allow
the high-pressure water to get into camera directly, and wipe off
any dirt with soft cloth.

take an unstable posture, you may fall and be injured. Put proper
stepladder or step on the level and firm ground, and clean the
camera in secure posture.
