Fundamentals
The Work Place Inspection helps the operator
determine if the work place is suitable for safe
machine operation. It should be performed by the
operator prior to moving the machine to the work
place.
It is the operator's responsibility to read and
remember the work place hazards, then watch for
and avoid them while moving, setting up and
operating the machine.
Operating Instructions
