320 (S/N 511720001–511721115) Excavator Operation & Maintenance Manual

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY IS THE OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY The Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator is a highly maneuverable and compact machine. In operation, it is rugged and useful under a wide variety of conditions. This presents an operator with hazards which are common for of f highway, rough terrain applications but not unique for use of Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator. The excavator has an internal combustion engine with resultant heat and exhaust. All exhaust gases can kill or cause illness so the excavator must be used with adequate ventilation. The excavator must not be used in an area with explosive dusts or gases or so that the engine exhaust can contact flammable material. The excavator has a spark arrestor muf fler which is required for operation in certain areas.

The dealer recommends the capabilities of the excavator and attachments for each application. The dealer demonstrates the safe operation of the excavator according to the manufacturer’s instructional materials which are also available to all operators. The dealer can also identify unsafe modifications or use of unapproved attachments. The attachments and buckets are designed for rated capacity and secure fastening to the Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator . The user must check with the dealer or Melroe Company literature or load diagram to identify safe loads.

The following publications provide information on the safe use and maintenance of the excavator and attachments: • The Delivery Report is used to check whether complete instructions have been given to the new owner and that the machine is in safe operating condition.

• The Operation & Maintenance Manual delivered with the Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator gives operating information as well as routine maintenance information. It is a part of the machine and must stay with the machine when it is sold.

Replacement Operation & Maintenance Manuals can be purchased from your dealer.

Dealer Copy -- Not for Resale

• Every Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator has machine signs (or decals) which instruct on the safe care and operation. The signs and their location are shown in the Operation & Maintenance Manual. Replacement signs are available from your Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator dealer.

• The Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator has a plastic Operator Handbook fastened to the operator cab. Its instructions are available to the operator. The handbook is available from your dealer in an English edition or one of the following languages: French, German, Italian, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, Finnish, Danish & Swedish.

• The CIMA safety manual contains information for safe operation and maintenance.

• The Service Manual and Parts Manual are optional manuals available from your Bobcat Hydraulic Excavator dealer for use by mechanics to do shop–type service and repair.

• The Hydraulic Excavator Operator Training Course is available through your local dealer. This course is intended to provide rules and practices of correct operation of the Hydraulic Excavator.

• The Bobcat Compact Excavator Safety Video is available from your Bobcat Dealer.

The dealer and owner/operator review the recommended uses of the excavator and attachments when excavator is delivered. If the owner/operator will be using the excavator for a different application than was originally demonstrated by the dealer, ask the dealer for recommendations on the new use.

Untrained operators can cause injury or death.

W–2001–1285

B–10731

This notice identifies procedures which must be followed to avoid damage to the machine.

Warnings on the machine in the manuals are for your safety. Failure to obey warnings can cause injury or death.

SAFE OPERATION NEEDS A QUALIFIED OPERATOR* A QUALIFIED OPERATOR MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:

• UNDERSTAND THE WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS, RULES AND REGULA TIONS • The written instructions from Melroe Company include the delivery report, operator handbook, Operation & Maintenance Manual, and machine signs (decals).

• Check the rules and regulations at your location.

• HAVE TRAINING WITH ACTUAL OPERATION • Operator training must consist of a demonstration and verbal instruction. This training is given by your excavator dealer before the excavator is delivered.

• The new operator should start in an area without bystanders and use all the controls until he can operate safely under all conditions of the work area.

• KNOW THE WORK CONDITIONS • For each material to be handled, the operator must know how to avoid exceeding the rated lift capacity of the excavator. For example, you should not use the excavator for lifting heavy objects.

• The operator must know any prohibited uses or work areas, for example, he needs to know about excessive slopes.

• Know the location of any underground lines. Call local utilities or ONE CALL before you dig.

• Wear tight fitting clothing. Always wear safety glasses when maintaining or servicing excavator . Safety glasses,

hearing protection or an excavator special application kit are required for some work. See your dealer about Melroe Safety equipment.

I–2019–0284

W–2044–1285

FIRE PREVENTION The excavator has several components that are at high temperature under normal operating conditions. The primary source of high temperatures is the engine and exhaust system. The electrical system, if damaged or incorrectly maintained, can be a source of arcs or sparks. These conditions make it important to avoid applications where explosive dust or gases can be ignited by arcs, sparks or heat.

Flammable debris (leaves, straw, etc.) must be removed regularly . If flammable debris is allowed to accumulate, it will increase the fire hazard. The excavator must be cleaned as often as necessary to avoid this accumulation. This flammable debris in the engine compartment can be a fire hazard when the machine is parked with a hot engine.

The spark arrestor muffler is designed to control the emission of hot particles from the engine and exhaust system, but the muffler and the exhaust gases are still hot. This spark arrestor muffler does not change the need to avoid use of the excavator in an atmosphere with explosive dust or gases or where the exhaust can contact flammable material.

• Do not use the Hydraulic Excavator where explosive dust or gases can be ignited by arcs, sparks, hot components or exhaust gases.

• The engine compartment and engine cooling system must be inspected every day and cleaned if necessary to prevent overheating. Remove all flammable material.

• Check all electrical wiring and connections for damage. Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. Repair or replace any damaged part.

• Do not use ether or starting fluids on any engine which has glow plugs. These starting aids can explode and injure bystanders.

Dealer Copy -- Not for Resale

• Check fuel and hydraulic tubes, hoses and fittings for damage and leakage. T ighten or replace any parts that show leakage. Always clean fluid spills.

• Always clean the excavator before doing any welding. Cover rubber hoses, battery and all other flammable parts. Keep a fire extinguisher near the machine when welding.

• Stop the engine and let it cool before adding fuel. No smoking!

• Use the procedure in Operation & Maintenance Manual for connecting the battery.

• Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for servicing the spark arrestor muffler every 100 hours of operation.

When operating in water or crossing streams, first check the soil conditions, depth and flow of water . Never operate in water higher than the bottom of the swing circle.

OPERATING PROCEDURES Breaking In A New Machine When operating on a public road or highway , always follow local regulations. For example: Slow Moving Vehicle Sign or Directional Signals may be required.

A new machine requires careful operation during the first 100 hours to break in various parts.

If a machine is subjected to hard use during the initial operation, the performance and service life will be reduced.

Do the following when operating a new machine:

•

After starting, let the engine idle for 5 minutes so the engine and components can warm up.

•

Avoid operation with heavy loads or at high speeds.

•

Avoid sudden starting or stopping or abrupt motions.

When operating on uneven ground or in places where there are obstacles, do the following:

•

Avoid traveling over objects (such as rocks, trees, stumps, etc.).

Check with utility companies, for underground electrical, water, gas lines, etc. Work slowly in areas of underground utilities.

Do not move the machine with the bucket in the ground or trench.

Do not use the bucket as a breaker or pile driver. It is better to excavate hard or rocky ground after breaking it with other equipment. This will reduce damage to the machine.

When the engine stops on a slope, move the steering levers to the neutral position. Lower the boom/bucket.

If one track or both tracks are stuck in soft soil, push the bucket down against the ground to raise the track (or tracks, one side at a time) off the ground.

•

Place timbers (planks) under the track(s) and drive the machine to firm ground.

•

It may help to put the bucket into the ground in front and move the arm as if you were digging to help move the machine.

34 of 80

Do not dig under the machine.

To brake the machine when going down a slope, put the steering levers in NEUTRAL position. This will engage the hydrostatic braking.

When working in wet or soft ground, put planking on the ground to prevent the machine from getting stuck. If the machine is stuck in soft soil, use the following procedure to move the machine to firm ground:

•

If it is necessary to operate the control levers when moving the machine near a clif f, road shoulders, or sloping ground, stop the machine travel before operating any work equipment levers.

–16–

NOTE: The control console(s) must be in the locked down position, with the engine stopped, to activate the accumulator pressure to lower the boom/bucket (attachments) to the ground.

NOTE: The ignition switch must be in the ON position with the engine stopped to activate the accumulator pressure to lower the boom/bucket to the ground.

Start the engine and resume the operation.

RECOMMENDED POSITION FOR WORKING ON A SLOPE

When operating on a slope it is recommended to level the work area [C].

If this is not possible, the following procedures should be used: Do not work on slopes which are over 15 degrees.

Slow down the work cycle.

Avoid working with the tracks across the slope as this reduces stability and increases the tendency for the machine to slide. Position the excavator with the blade down hill and lowered.

MC–01865C

Avoid swinging or extending the bucket farther than necessary in a down hill direction. When you must swing the bucket down hill, keep the dipper arm low and skid the bucket downhill.

When working with the bucket on the uphill side, keep the bucket as close to the ground as possible. Dump the spoil far enough away from the trench or hole to prevent the possibility of a cave in.
