GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY EQUIPMENT

Be sure that all guards, covers and mirrors are in their proper position. Have guards and covers repaired
immediately if they are damaged.
Understand the method of use of safety features and use them properly.
Never remove any safety features. Always keep them in good operating condition.

KEEP MACHINE CLEAN

If water gets into the electrical system, there is a hazard that it
will cause malfunctions or misoperation. Do not use water or
steam to wash the electrical system (sensors, alternator,
starting motor, solenoid valves, connectors).
If inspection and maintenance is carried out when the machine
is still dirty with mud or oil, there is a hazard that you will slip and
fall, or that dirt or mud will get into your eyes. Always keep the
machine clean.
When washing the machine with the floor open (tilted), cover
with vinyl to prevent water from getting into the electrical system.

KEEP OPERATOR'S COMPARTMENT CLEAN

When entering the operator's compartment, always remove all mud and oil from the soles of your shoes.
If you operate the pedal with mud or oil affixed to your shoes, your foot may slip and this may cause a serious
accident.
Do not leave parts or tools lying around the operator's compartment.
Do not stick suction pads to the window glass. Suction pads act as a lens and may cause fire.
Do not use cellular telephones inside the operator's compartment when driving or operating the machine.
Never bring any dangerous objects such as flammable or explosive items into the operator's compartment.

LEAVING OPERATOR'S SEAT WITH LOCK

Before standing up from the operator's seat (such as when
opening or closing the front window or roof window, or when
removing or installing the bottom window, or when adjusting the
operator's seat), lower the work equipment completely to the
ground, set lock lever (1) securely to the LOCK position (L), then
stop the engine. If you accidentally touch the levers when they
are not locked, there is a hazard that the machine may suddenly
move and cause serious injury or property damage.
When leaving the machine, always lower the work equipment
and blade completely to the ground, set lock lever (1) to LOCK
position (L), then stop the engine. Use the key to lock all the
equipment. Always remove the key, take it with you, and keep it
in the specified place.
