OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS RH 340 Electric OPeration Hazard range The hazard range is that zone around the machine in which persons are within reach of loads or attachments falling as a result of operational movements by the machine, of its equipment and attachments or of swinging loads. Persons within the hazard zone Always use the horn to warn persons in the immediate vicinity of the machine before starting up the machine. Ensure that no one sets foot in the hazard zone of the machine. Interrupt work until such persons have left the hazard zone.
Marshallers The marshaller must keep outside the hazard zone. Have a marshaller to assist you:
when you have no clear overview over the hazard zone of the machine,
when reversing,
when shunting.
Use only those communication signals which you and the marshaller understand, or use aids for communication (e.g. walkie-talkie/camera). Calls cannot be understood by the marshaller because of the noise made by the machine during operation. Keep in constant contact with the marshaller. Stop the machine immediately if you lose contact with the marshaller. Securing the machine Secure the machine as described under "Securing the machine" before:

mounting or dismantling the attachment,
