SAFETY General Precautions for Cab Before entering the cab, thoroughly remove all dirt and/or oil such as mud, grease, soil or stones that may mess up the cab from the soles of your work boots. If any controls such as a pedal is operated while with dirt and/or oil on the soles of the operator’s work boots, the operator’s foot may slip off the pedal, possibly resulting in a personal accident.
SAFETY Use Handholds and Steps Falling is one of the major causes of personal injury. When you get on and off the machine, always face the machine and maintain a three-point contact with the steps and handrails. Do not use any controls as hand-holds. ...
SAFETY Ensure Safety Before Rising from or Leaving Operator’s Seat Before rising from the operator’s seat to open/close either side window or to adjust the seat position, be sure to first lower the front attachment to the ground and then move the pilot control shut-off lever to the LOCK position.
SAFETY Move and Operate Machine Safely Bystanders can be run over. Take extra care not to run over bystanders. Confirm the location of bystanders before moving, swinging, or operating the machine. Always keep the travel alarm and horn in working condition (if equipped).
SAFETY Jump Starting Battery gas can explode, resulting in serious injury. If the engine must be jump started, be sure to follow the instructions shown in the “OPERATING THE ENGINE” chapter in the operator’s manual. The operator must be in the operator’s seat so that the machine will be under control when the engine starts.
SAFETY Precautions for Operations Investigate the work site before starting operations. Be sure to wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment appropriate for the job, such as a hard hat, etc. when operating the machine. Clear all persons and obstacles from the area of operation and machine movement.
SAFETY Investigate Job Site Beforehand When working at the edge of an excavation or on a road shoulder, the machine could tip over, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. Investigate the configuration and ground conditions of the job site beforehand to prevent the machine from falling and to prevent the ground, stockpiles or banks from collapsing.
Install OPG Guard In case the machine is operated in areas where the possibilities of falling stones or debris exist, install the Hitachi OPG guard. Consult your authorized dealer for installing the OPG guard. In order not to impair operator protective structure: Replace damaged OPG guard.
SAFETY Restriction of Attachment Installation Do not install an attachment which exceeds specified weight for the machine structure. Provide Signals for Jobs Involving Multiple Machines For jobs involving multiple machines, provide signals commonly known by all personnel involved. Also, appoint a signal person to coordinate the job site.
SAFETY Drive Machine Safely Before driving the machine, always confirm that the travel levers/pedals direction corresponds to the direction you wish to drive. Be sure to detour around any obstructions. Avoid traveling over obstructions. Soil, fragments of rocks, and/or metal pieces may scatter around the machine.

SAFETY Avoid swinging the upperstructure on slopes. Never attempt to swing the upperstructure downhill. The machine may tip over. If swinging uphill is unavoidable, carefully operate the upperstructure and boom at slow speed. If the engine stalls on a slope, immediately lower the bucket to the ground.
SAFETY Avoid Injury from Rollaway Accidents Death or serious injury may result if you attempt to mount or stop a moving machine. To avoid rollaways: Select level ground when possible to park the machine. Do not park the machine on a grade. ...
SAFETY Avoid Injury from Back-Over and Swing Accidents If any person is present near the machine when backing or swinging the upperstructure, the machine may hit or run over that person, resulting in serious injury or death. To avoid back-over and swing accidents: ...
SAFETY Keep Person Clear from Working Area A person around the operating machine may be hit severely by the swinging front attachment or counterweight, be caught in other objects, and/or be struck by flying objects, resulting in serious injury or death. ...
SAFETY Avoid Undercutting In order to retreat from the edge of an excavation if the footing should collapse, always position the undercarriage perpendicular to the edge of the excavation with the travel motors at the rear. If the footing starts to collapse and if retreat is not possible, do not panic.
SAFETY Never Undercut a High Bank The edges could collapse or a land slide could occur causing serious injury or death. SA-489 Dig with Caution Accidental severing of underground cables or gas lines may cause an explosion and/or fire, possibly resulting in serious injury or death.
SAFETY Avoid Power Lines Serious injury or death can result if the machine or front attachments are not kept a safe distance from electric lines. When operating near an electric line, NEVER move any part of the machine or load closer than 3 m plus twice the line insulator length.
SAFETY Object Handling If a lifted load should fall, any person nearby may be struck by the falling load or may be crushed underneath it, resulting in serious injury or death. When using the machine for craning operations, be sure to comply with all local regulations.
SAFETY Park Machine Safely To avoid accidents: Park machine on a firm, level surface. Lower bucket to the ground. Turn auto-idle switch OFF. Run engine at slow idle speed without load for 5 minutes. Turn key switch to OFF to stop engine. ...
SAFETY Transport Safely Take care, the machine may turn over when loading or unloading the machine onto or off of a truck or trailer. Observe the related regulations and rules for safe transportation. Select an appropriate truck or trailer for the machine to be transported.
