Action if Fire Occurs SAFETY If a fire occurs, escape from the machine and take the following actions: Do not attempt to move the machine or continue operations. Turn the start switch OFF to stop the engine. The door on the right side of the cab is provided as an emergency escape door for use when it is impossible to exit from the door on the left side. See “Emergency Escape Right Door” on page 2-68 for further details. Use the handrails and steps to get off the machine. See “Mounting and Dismounting” on page 1-16. Immediately call for help. When using a fire extinguisher, always aim the extinguisher at the base of the fire.
If an optional fire extinguishing system is in place, be familiar with its operating procedures. Fire Extinguisher and First Aid Kit As a precaution in case a fire or an injury occurs, always keep a fire extinguisher and first aid kit on your machine and take the following precautions: Be sure that fire extinguishers have been provided and read the labels to ensure that you know how to use them in emergencies. Carry out periodic inspection and maintenance to ensure that the fire extinguisher can always be used. Keep a first aid kit in the storage area. Check the kit periodically and make any additions, if necessary. Keep a list of emergency phone numbers in case of an accident. WA430-6 1-15
