OM2221 8/11 Safety - Section 22 Page 22-1 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS The following pages give an explanation of the warning, caution, and service instruction plates and decals attached to the truck. The plates and decals listed here are typical of this Komatsu model, but because of customer options, individual trucks may have plates and decals that are different from those shown here. INSTRUMENT PANEL A warning decal is below the key switch located to the right of the steering column on the instrument panel. The warning stresses the importance of reading the operator's manual before operation. The plates and decals must be kept clean and legible.
If any decal or plate becomes damaged or illegible, replace it with a new one. GRADE/SPEED CHART A grade/speed retard chart is located on the left front post of the operator's cab. It provides the recommended maximum speeds to be used when descending various grades with a loaded truck. Always refer to the decal in operator's cab. This decal may change with optional truck equipment such as wheel motor drive train ratios, retarding grids, tire sizes, etc. Another warning decal is located to the right of the steering column on the instrument panel. The warning stresses the importance of placing the selector lever in PARK before exiting the cab.
