Loading and Unloading (Crane)

Before lifting, make sure that machine parts (hook and vibration insulator) are not damaged and screws are not loosened or lost.

Always make sure crane or lifting device has been properly secured to the hook of guard frame on compactor.

NEVER lift the machine while the engine is running.

Use adequate lifting cable (wire or rope) of sufficient strength.

Use one point suspension hook and lift straight upwards.

NEVER allow any person or animal to stand underneath the machine while lifting.

Try not to lift machine to unnecessary heights.

Transporting

Always shutdown engine before transporting.

Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel cock to prevent fuel from spilling.

Drain fuel when transporting compactor over long distances or bad roads.

Always tie-down the compactor during transportation by securing the compactor's guard frame with rope.

ALWAYS know the location of the nearest and first aid kit.

In emergencys always know the location of the nearest phone or keep a phone on the job site. Also know the phone numbers of the nearest ambulance, doctor and fire department. This information will be invaluable in the case of an emergency.

Emergencies

ALWAYS know the location of the nearest fire extinguisher.

Maintenance Safety
