moving boom, swinging upper structure, or traveling. Always be alert for bystanders in or near the work area.
Avoid contact between boom and overhead obstacles when you operate, move, or haul machine.
When working on a slippery slope, position the tracks parallel to the angle of the slope. Then the track shoe grousers
help serve as a brake.

Make sure work site footing is strong enough to firmly support the machine. When working next to a ledge, position the
machine with the tracks perpendicular to the ledge and with the travel motors (M) at the rear, away from the ledge.
If engine stops during operation on a hillside, start engine immediately. Turn pilot control pressure switch to OFF then to ON,
and resume normal operation.
Avoid Machine Tip Over
Use Seat Belt
Unloading Machine

Do Not Jump
Use seat belt at all times.

Do not jump if the machine tips. You will be unlikely to jump clear and the machine may crush you.
Load and unload from trucks or trailers carefully. Be sure truck is wide enough and on a firm level surface. Use loading
ramps. Properly attach ramps to truck bed. Avoid trucks with steel beds because tracks slip more easily on steel.
Be careful on slopes. Use extra care on soft, rocky or frozen ground. Machine may slip sideways in these conditions. When
traveling up or down slopes, keep the attachment head on uphill side and just above ground level.
Be careful with heavy loads. Using oversize attachment heads or lifting heavy objects reduces machine stability. Extending
a heavy load or swinging it over side of undercarriage may cause machine to tip.
Ensure solid footing. Use extra care when operating near banks or excavations that may cave-in and cause machine to tip or
fall.
Avoid Work Site Hazards

Avoid contact with gas lines, buried cables and water lines. Call utility line location services to identify all
underground utilities before starting work.
Prepare work site properly. Avoid operating near structures or objects that could fall onto the machine. Clear away debris
that could move unexpectedly if run over.
Avoid boom or attachment contact with overhead obstacles or overhead electrical lines. Never move machine closer
than 3 m (10 ft) plus twice the line insulator length to overhead wires.
Keep bystanders clear at all times. Use barricades or a signal person to keep vehicles and pedestrians away. Use a signal
person if moving machine in congested areas or where visibility is restricted. Always keep signal person in view. Coordinate
hand signals before starting machine.
Operate only on solid footing with strength sufficient to support machine. Be especially alert working near embankments or
excavations.
Avoid working under over-hanging embankments or stockpiles that could collapse under or on machine.
Reduce machine speed when operating with tool on or near ground when obstacles may be hidden (for example, during
snow removal or clearing mud, dirt, and so on.) At high speeds hitting obstacles (rocks, uneven concrete, or manholes) can
cause a sudden stop. Always wear seat belt.

Keep Riders Off Machine
Keep Riders Off Machine
Only allow the operator on the machine. Keep riders off.

Riders on machine are subject to injury such as being struck by foreign objects and being thrown off of the machine.
Riders also obstruct the operator′s view resulting in the machine being operated in an unsafe manner.
Never use the felling head or attachment for a work platform or personnel carrier.
Never move loads over the heads of other persons.
Use Care When Swinging Machine
Swing Caution
Ensure that all bystanders are clear before swinging the machine.
Be sure that there is sufficient clearance for the booms and load.
Be aware of the position of the counter weight.

Operate Booms With Care
Operate Booms with Care
Regardless of whether the engine is running or is shut down, always lower the booms so that the felling head or attachment is
securely supported when operation is stopped.
When moving the machine, watch that enough clearance is available on both sides and above the boom. Extra clearance may
be required particularly where the ground is uneven.
Maintain a safe operating distance between the equipment and other personnel. Never swing the boom, attachment, or load
over the heads of bystanders.
USE ONLY PREARRANGED AND APPROVED SIGNALING PRACTICES.
Avoid Backover Accidents
Backover Warning
Before moving machine, be sure all persons are clear of both travel and swing paths. Turn around and look directly
for best visibility. Use mirrors to assist in checking all around machine. Keep windows and mirrors clean, adjusted, and in good
repair.
Be certain travel alarm is working properly.
Use a signal person when backing if view is obstructed or when in close quarters. Keep signal person in view at all
times. Use prearranged hand signals to communicate.
Operating On Slopes

Operating on Slopes
Avoid side slope travel whenever possible. When working on steep slopes, travel as straight up and down as possible to
prevent machine tip over.
Select low gear speed before starting down slope. The slope on which you can operate safely will be limited by ground
condition and the load being handled.
Be alert to wind direction and velocity.
Operating or Traveling On Public Roads
Operating or Traveling On Public Roads
Machines that work near vehicle traffic or travel slower than normal highway speeds must have proper lighting and markings to
assure they are visible to other drivers.
Install additional lights, beacons, slow moving vehicle (SMV) emblems, or other devices and use as required to make the
machine visible and identify it as a work machine. Check state and local regulations to assure compliance. Keep these devices
clean and in working condition.
Add And Operate Attachments Safely

Always verify compatibility of attachments by contacting your authorized dealer. Adding unapproved attachments may affect
machine stability or reliability, and may create a hazard for others near the machine.
Ensure that a qualified person is involved in attachment installation. Add guards to machine if operator protection is required or
recommended. Verify that all connections are secure and attachment responds properly to controls.
Carefully read attachment manual and follow all instructions and warnings. In an area free of bystanders and obstructions,
carefully operate attachment to learn its characteristics and range of motion.
Travel Safely

Travel Safely
Know the location of bystanders before moving the machine.

Always keep the reverse warning alarm, if equipped, in working condition. It warns people when the machine starts to
move in reverse.
Use a signal person when moving the machine in congested areas. Coordinate hand signals before starting the machine.
→NOTE:

DO NOT PARK ON A HILLSIDE OR AN INCLINE.
Always park the machine on level ground.
Avoid Power Lines
Avoid Power Lines
Approach with caution areas where overhanging telephone or electric power lines are present. Serious injury or death by
electrocution can result if the machine or any of its attachments are not kept a safe distance from high-voltage electric power
lines.
Maintain a distance of 10 ft (3 m) between the machine or boom and any power line carrying up to 50 000 volts or less.
CAUTION:
Power lines carrying more than 50 000 volts require a safety distance of 10 ft (3 m) plus 1/2 in. (13 mm)
for each additional 1000 volts above the 50 000 volt level.

If state/province, local, or job site regulations require even greater safety distances than stated above, adhere strictly to
these regulations for your own protection.
Inspect and Maintain ROPS

A damaged roll-over protective structure (ROPS) should be replaced.
The protection offered by ROPS will be impaired if ROPS is subjected to structural damage, is involved in an overturn incident,
or is in any way altered by welding, bending, drilling, or cutting.
If ROPS was loosened or removed for any reason, inspect it carefully before operating the machine again.
To maintain the ROPS:
Replace missing hardware using correct grade hardware.
Check hardware torque.
Check isolation mounts for damage, looseness or wear; replace them if necessary.
Check ROPS for cracks or physical damage.
