TX,05,DH5848 –19–13AUG97–1/1 OPERATE MACHINE SAFELY Clear all persons from area of operation and machine movement. Use your seat belt.

T7252AL –UN–08JUN90 Make sure the work site footing has sufficient strength to firmly support the machine. When working close to an excavation, position machine with propel motors at the rear. Be cautious of tipping when working on frozen ground. Temperature increases will cause ground to become soft, making ground unstable. When digging deep, avoid hitting bottom of boom or bucket cylinder hoses against the ground. Use the bucket only for digging. Do not use it as a jack hammer or wrecking ball.
