Komatsu — Precautions for Ventilation Exhaust Gas

SAFETY Crush or Pinch-Point Dangers Never stand in or place any part of your body between the movable components, such as the articulating portions of the machine or between the machine’s work equipment. When the machine is operated, the clearance changes. If you get caught in this area, it may lead to serious personal injury or death. Never drive up to anyone standing in front of a solid object or in your path of travel. The brakes could fail or the machine could slide on a slippery surface causing injury or even death. Precautions for Ventilation Exhaust Gas The engine exhaust gas contains substances that may damage your health or even cause death.

Start or operate the engine in a place where there is good ventilation. If the engine or machine must be operated inside a building or underground, where the ventilation is poor, take steps to ensure that the engine exhaust gas is removed and that ample fresh air is brought in. 1-20 WA380-6
