CAUTION

• Isolation procedures must be followed when working on equipment. • Isolate any other related equipment where its operation will cause danger to personnel or damage to equipment. • Before operating equipment make sure that nobody is inside or in the immediate area of the equipment. • Maintenance and repair should be undertaken by trained personnel. • Always wear correct PPE when working on hydraulic systems. • Ensure that any relevant circuits are depressurised. Release of high pressure fluids can be fatal. As a final check twist the hose to ensure it is loose before disconnecting fittings. • Always be aware of E-Stop locations, in case of an emergency. • Walkways with anti slip plates and handrails are provided. When using the walkway, operators should monitor face conditions to ensure they do not encounter falling coal. • All guards have to be in place when system is in operation. • High pressure fluids can penetrate skin and enter a human body. • These fluid injections may cause severe tissue damage and loss of limb. If a fluid injection accident occurs, see a doctor immediately.
