Loss of traction can cause the machine to slide and tip. Rules of the Road WARNING! Avoid death or serious injury.
Operate Safely Exhaust Fumes in a Closed Space Can Kill Loading and Unloading Safely Vent exhaust and assure a flow of fresh air when an internal combustion engine is used in a closed space. Always wear your seat belt/operator restraint when loading or unloading your machine from a transport device, such as a flatbed truck. WARNING! Exhaust fumes can kill. Do not breath exhaust fumes from any kind of engine.
Operate Safely machine is equipped with brakes operable from the hauling vehicle, check to make sure they are operating properly. Always be sure the portability or transport wheels, on machines so equipped, are locked in the lowered position. Check all tires for proper pressure, excessive or abnormal wear, and potentially dangerous cuts, bruises or bulges. Have any problems corrected before proceeding.
Operate Safely Towed Rollers Landfill Compactors Most general safety precautions covered earlier in this manual are also applicable to towed roller operation. There are many precautions specific to towed rollers that must be taken. Study your manufacturer’s manual for instructions on your specific towed roller. Consult the manufacturer or dealer with any concerns.
Perform Maintenance Safely Know What You’re Doing Protect Yourself Maintenance on this type of machine is not for inexperienced or untrained personnel. It can be hazardous unless performed properly. Be sure you have the necessary skill, information, correct tools and proper equipment to do the job safely. Wear all the personal protective clothing and PPE issued to you or called for by job conditions or your supervisor. Be sure to maintain the equipment according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Perform Maintenance Safely Prepare the Work Area • Position the machine on a level area out of the way of other working equipment. • Make sure there is adequate light, ventilation and clearance. • Remove oil, grease or water and dry slippery surfaces. • Clean around the area to be serviced to minimize contamination. Prepare the Machine Stored energy sources (electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, thermal, etc.
Perform Maintenance Safely Use Jacks and Hoists Carefully Fuel Hazards Safety stands or blocks must be located on a rigid part of the machine. Do not position stands under axles or wheel supports that may rotate. Refer to manufacturer’s manual. WARNING! Avoid serious injury or death. Always use approved fuel containers and/or fuel dispensing equipment to reduce the risk of explosion or fire. WARNING! Prevent crushing injury. Never use concrete blocks for supports.
Perform Maintenance Safely Hydraulic Fluid Injection Hazard High pressure fluid can inject into the body Fluid injection injuries are not always obvious. Victims have reported such injuries feel like a bee sting or splinter under the skin. If you suspect you have a fluid injection injury, do not take chances. Seek proper medical care immediately. If any fluid is injected into the skin, it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this type of injury.
Perform Maintenance Safely Avoid Explosion WARNING! Avoid serious injury from explosion. Lead-acid batteries produce extremely explosive gases especially when being charged. Keep arcs, sparks, flames and lighted tobacco away. • Do not smoke near batteries. • Keep them away from arcs, sparks and open flames. • Provide adequate ventilation. • Make the final cable connection to the engine or the furthest ground point away from the battery. Never make the final connection at the starter or dead battery.
Perform Maintenance Safely Keep wheel lug nuts tightened to manufacturer’s recommendations. An increase in tire pressure during operation is normal, and should NOT be reduced. Never reinflate a tire that has been run flat or seriously under-inflated without removing the tire from the wheel. Have the tire and wheel closely inspected for damage before remounting. Avoid tire explosion Never cut or weld on a wheel with an inflated tire mounted on it. This could cause explosive decompression.
