Boom Cylinder
compatible with its specific functions (such pushing railway cars, trucks other machines). Always pay attention the people near the machine operating area. Never move stop the bucket, other loads the attachment above people the truck cab. Ensure the truck driver is in a safe place before loading the truck. Load the truck from the side the rear , never over the cab the truck. Use only the type bucket recommended considering the machine type, materials moved, material piling and loading characteristics, ground type and other conditions typical the work performed. When transporting the loaded bucket, keep it retracted possible. Keep the boom and arm low possible. The travel speed should adequate the load and ground conditions. The load must always properly distributed in the bucket; move with extreme care when transporting oversize loads. not lift move the bucket above where there are people working. sloped terrain, not carry the bucket with the machine facing uphill, since this would decrease machine stability . Always load the bucket from the downhill side. Loads hoisted using the machine should attached the appropriate specially provided cradle. The excavator is not travel lifting equipment; therefore, it should not used position loads accurately . it is used lift and carry building components, you must take the following precautions:
• The machine must equipped with the hoisting hook supplied order .
• Make sure the loads raised using cables chains are secured with appropriate fastening elements.
• Nobody should authorized remain under the raised load within the excavator operating area for any reason whatsoever .
Never exceed specified load capacity . Incorrect fastening slings chains may cause failure in the boom, arm failure the lifting equipment, causing bodily injuries death. Always ensure that slings and chains used for lifting are adequate the load and in good condition. All loading capacity specifications are for the machine working a level surface and should disregarded when working sloped terrain. A void driving the machine along inclined surfaces. Proceed from uphill downhill and vice versa, in the direction the slope. machine starts slipping sideways, lower the bucket and thrust the bucket teeth into the ground, stop the movement. W orking a sloped area is dangerous. possible, level the area before starting work. Reduce the work speed if it is not possible level the work area. a sloped area, avoid turning the upper structure upside down, since this movement can unbalance the machine. a sloped area, not work with the bucket facing uphill, since counterweights facing downhill reduce the machine's stability and increase the risk roll over . such cases, recommend working with the bucket facing downhill, after checking the machine's stability , turning the upper structure 360 ° (one full turn) with the bucket empty and the arm retracted. Position the chassis perpendicular the slope the terrain move through the work area more safely . Keep the machine suf ficiently far from the edges a ditch. Never dig under the machine. Should it necessary dig under the machine, verify that digging walls are appropriately propped against landslide prevent the machine from falling into the excavation area. not swing the upper structure, raise the load brake abruptly if not required. This may cause accidents. Prior beginning the work near gas distribution mains, telephone lines other public utilities:
• Contact the company that owns the service its nearest branch before starting the work.
• Define, in conjunction with the company , what precautions must taken ensure work safety .
• Decrease work speed. Reaction time could too slow and the evaluation the distance wrong.
• Appoint a person in charge signalling duties. This person will responsible for observing the machine, any part it and the load near the distribution grids from a more favorable viewing angle than that the operator . This person, the signal man, must in direct communication with the operator and the operator must pay undivided attention the signals given.
• The dealer company , if previously advised and involved in the work, well the operator , the machine owner , the physical legal entity that rented leased the machine that is responsible the time contract law , are liable for the adoption the necessary actions and precautions.
W orking near electric lines bears a high risk and therefore should performed under the condition special precautions. This manual considers work in the vicinity electrical lines those in which the attachment load raised the excavator could reach the minimum safety distance in relation the electrical grid provided the local safety codes. For safe operation in the vicinity electrical lines, you must maintain the greatest possible distance without ever exceeding the minimum distance permissible. Make sure you know and meet local safety regulations operation in the vicinity electrical lines. Before starting operation in the vicinity electrical lines it is necessary to:
• Contact the company that owns the electrical grid its nearest branch before starting the work.
• Define, in conjunction with the company , what precautions must taken ensure work safety .
