1.1 Operating Safety

Familiarity and proper training are required for the safe operation of the

machine. Machines operated improperly or by untrained personnel

can be hazardous. Read the operating instructions contained in this

manual and the engine manual, and familiarize yourself with the

location and proper use of all controls. Inexperienced operators should

receive instruction from someone familiar with the machine before

being allowed to operate it.

1.1.1 Always operate the machine with all safety devices and guards in

place and in working order.

1.1.2 ALWAYS check that all controls are functioning properly immediately

after start-up! DO NOT operate the machine unless all controls operate

correctly.

1.1.3 ALWAYS remain aware of changing surface conditions and use extra

care when operating over uneven ground, on hills, or over soft or

coarse material. The machine could shift or slide unexpectedly.

1.1.4 ALWAYS remain aware of changing positions and the movement of

other equipment and personnel on the job site.

1.1.5 ALWAYS use caution when operating near the edges of pits, trenches

or platforms. Check to be sure that the ground surface is stable enough

to support the weight of the machine with the operator and that there

is no danger of the roller sliding, falling, or tipping.

1.1.6 ALWAYS position yourself safely when operating machine in reverse

or on hills. Leave enough space between yourself and the machine so

you will not be placed in a hazardous position should the machine slide

or tip.

1.1.7 ALWAYS operate the machine with both of your feet on the ground!

DO NOT stand, sit, or ride on machine while in operation.

1.1.8 ALWAYS remain aware of moving parts and keep hands, feet, and

loose clothing away from the moving parts of the machine.

1.1.9 NEVER operate the machine with the fuel cap loose or missing.

1.2 Operator Safety While Using Internal Combustion Engines

Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation

and fueling. Read and follow the warning instructions in the engine

owner’s manual and the safety guidelines below. Failure to follow the

warnings and safety standards could result in severe injury or death.

1.2.1 Do not run the machine indoors or in an enclosed area such as a deep

trench unless adequate ventilation, through such items as exhaust

fans or hoses, is provided. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide.

This is a poison you cannot see or smell. Exposure to carbon

monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and CAN KILL YOU IN

MINUTES.

1.2.2 Do not smoke while operating the machine.

1.2.3 Do not smoke when refueling the engine.

1.2.4 Do not refuel a hot or running engine.

1.2.5 Do not refuel the engine near an open flame.

1.2.6 Do not spill fuel when refueling the engine.

1.2.7 Do not run the engine near open flames.

1.2.8 Refill the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.

1.2.9 Replace the fuel tank cap after refueling.

1.2.10 Do not touch or lean against hot exhaust pipes.

1.2.11 DO NOT mix diesel fuel with any other fluids.

1.3 Service Safety

A poorly maintained machine can become a safety hazard! In order

for the machine to operate safely and properly over a long period of

time, periodic maintenance and occasional repairs are necessary.

1.3.1 Do not modify the machine without the express written approval of the

manufacturer.

1.3.2 DO NOT open hydraulic lines or loosen hydraulic connections while

the engine is running! Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the

skin, cause burns, blind, or create other potentially dangerous

hazards. Set all controls in neutral and turn engine off before loosening

the hydraulic lines.

1.3.3 ALWAYS check all external fasteners at regular intervals.

1.3.4 Keep the area around the muffler free of debris such as leaves, paper,

cartons, etc. A hot muffler could ignite the debris and start a fire.

1.3.5 Keep the machine clean and labels legible. Replace all missing and

hard-to-read labels. Labels provide important operating instructions

and warn of dangers and hazards.

1.3.6 ALWAYS replace the safety devices and guards after repairs and

maintenance.

1.3.7 ALWAYS turn the engine off before performing maintenance or making

repairs.

1.3.8 ALWAYS make sure slings, chains, hooks, ramps, jacks, and other

types of lifting devices are attached securely and have enough weight-

bearing capacity to lift or hold the machine safely. Always remain

aware of the location of other people in the area when lifting the

machine.

1.3.9 ALWAYS turn the engine off before servicing the machine. If the

engine has electric start, disconnect the negative terminal on the

battery before servicing the machine.
