SAFETY

When road travel is required, know and use the signaling devices on the machine. Provide an escort and Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem when required.

Modifications, Nameplates, Markings And Capacities

Modifications and additions that affect capacity or safe operation shall not be performed without the manufacturer’s prior written approval. Where such authorization is granted, tags or decals shall be changed accordingly.

All attachment tools MUSTbe marked to identify the attachment tool and the total capacity with attachment tool at maximum elevation with load laterally centered.

ALWAYS be sure all nameplates, caution and instruction markings are in place and legible. Local government regulations may require specific decals, which then become the responsibility of the local owner to provide.

Study the load chart carefully. It shows maximum capacity to be lifted and placed at specific outward and upward distances. ALWAYS be aware of load weights prior to attempting lift and placement with this machine.

Safety Guards and Warning Devices

This machine is fitted with an overhead guard in accordance with industry standards. It is intended to offer protection to the operator from falling objects, but cannot protect against every possible impact. Therefore, it should not be considered a substitute for good judgment and care in operating the machine.

This machine is equipped with a horn and backup alarm. The user must determine if operating conditions require the machine be equipped with additional devices (mirrors, rotating beacon, etc.) and be responsible for providing and maintaining such devices.

Do NOTmodify the ROPS in any manner. Unauthorized modifications such as welding, drilling, cutting or adding components can weaken the structure and reduce its protective ability. If a ROPS is subjected to roll-over or other damage, it must be replaced. Do NOTattempt to repair a ROPS
