Operation

 

Note: The shaded areas indicate the approximate location of areas with significant restricted visibility.

There is restricted visibility to the area directly be- hind the machine. Failure to make sure the area is clear could result in injury or death. Use a second person on the ground to make sure that the area is clear before you operate the machine in the RE- VERSE position. Refer to the Operation and Main- tenance Manual, “Operation Information” for more information.

Operation

SMCS Code: 7000

Machine Operating Temperature Range

The standard machine configuration is intended for use within an ambient temperature range of −40 °C (−40 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F). Special configurations for different ambient temperatures may be available. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for additional information on special configurations of your machine.

Machine Operation

Only operate the machine while you are in a seat. The seat belt must be fastened while you operate the machine. Only operate the controls while the engine is running.

While you operate the machine slowly in an open area, check for proper operation of all controls and all protective devices.

Before you move the machine, you must make sure that no one will be endangered.

Do not allow riders on the machine unless the machine has the following equipment:

•additional seat

•additional seat belt

•Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS) Never use the work tool for a work platform.

Note any needed repairs during machine operation. Report any needed repairs.

Do not operate the machine on ground conditions that could result in the seat suspension travel stops being contacted and do not operate the machine at travel speeds that could result in the seat suspension travel stops being contacted. Operating this machine in very rough ground conditions or at travels speeds not suitable for the ground conditions may result

in excessive seat vertical travel with impact of the suspension against the travel stops, which may cause injury. In order to minimize impact loading on the operator, properly adjust the seat controls for the operator weight and height. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Seat” for more information.

Carry attachments approximately 40 cm (15 inches) above ground level. Do not go close to the edge of a cliff, an excavation, or an overhang.

If the machine begins to sideslip downward on a grade, immediately remove the load and turn the machine downhill.

Avoid any conditions that can lead to tipping the machine. The machine can tip when you work on hills, on banks and on slopes. Also, the machine can tip when you cross ditches, ridges or other unexpected obstructions.

Avoid operating the machine across the slope. When possible, operate the machine up the slopes and down the slopes.

Maintain control of the machine. Do not overload the machine beyond the machine capacity.

Never straddle a wire cable. Never allow other personnel to straddle a wire cable.

Before you maneuver the machine, make sure that no personnel are between the machine and attachments.

Know the maximum dimensions of your machine.

Always keep the Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS) installed during machine operation.
