Komatsu — Fire Prevention and Fire Fighting

GENERAL SAFETY MEASURES FIRE PREVENTION AND FIRE FIGHTING Fuel, oil, and antifreezing compound are highly inflammable and could cause a fire. Do not approach inflammable material with naked light. Prior to refuelling, switch off the engine and stop smoking. Refuelling and refilling of oil are to be performed in suffi- ciently ventilated places. Store oil and fuel in special places appropriate for this pur- pose. Ensure that unauthorised persons do not have access to these places. Tightly close all cover caps. Check the fuel system, the lubrication system, and the hy- draulic system for leaks. Have leaks repaired. Remove any excess oil, fuel, or other inflammable substances.

Carefully and completely remove wooden chippings, leaves, paper, and other highly inflammable materials that may have collected in the engine compartment, since they could cause a fire. Do not operate the machine in the vicinity of naked light. 3-6
