SAFETY PRECAUTION DURING OPERATION WARNING: Failure to follow these safety precautions may lead to a serious accident. DO NOT GO CLOSE TO HIGH-VOLTAGE CABLES Going close to high-voltage cables can cause electric shock. Always maintain the safe distance given below, between the machine and the electric cable. q The following actions are effective in preventing accidents. 1) Wear shoes with rubber or leather soles. 2) Use a signalman to give warning if the machine approaches too close to the electric cable. q If the work equipment should touch the electric cable, the operator should not leave the operator’s compartment.
q When carrying out operations near high voltage cables, do not let anyone come close to the machine. q Check with the electricity company about the voltage of the cables before starting operations. DO NOT HIT WORK EQUIPMENT q When working in places where there are height limits, such as in tunnels, under bridges, under electric cables, or in garages, be extremely careful not to hit the boom or arm. ENSURE GOOD VISIBILITY q When working in dark places, install working lamps, and set up lighting in the work area if necessary.
q Stop operations if the visibility is poor, such as in mist, snow, or rain, and wait for the weather to improve to a condition that allows the operation to be carried out safely.
