INTERLOCK SWITCH (REAR DOOR)
The rear door is equipped with a safety interlock switch to prevent the machine from being operated while the rear door is open (pilot system is shut off). Lift the red PILOT OFF lever and confirm the yellow PILOT OFF light is ON before removing seat belt. Do not use the rear door interlock switch to turn pilot OFF.
WARNING The door safety interlock switch and the pilot reset lever are a safety feature and their function must not be defeated in any way. NOTE: The engine can be STARTED but machine functions will not operate if the rear door is open.
It is important the operator of the machine be familiar with these cab exits and how to use them. All operators should practice using all the cab exits to become familiar with escape procedures should they need to perform them in the dark, when the machine is in a rolled position, or other possible adverse condition. All three exits should be checked to make sure that they are operational and will function in an emergency. The safety interlock mechanism on the rear door must not be tampered with or defeated. IMPORTANT! Make sure the escape hatch is operational and can be opened from the inside and outside of the cab For additional information, refer to EMERGENCY EXITS in SECTION 2 of the OPERATOR'S MANUAL.
