6 SAFETY OPERATION

6.1 Keep Good Operation Habits

z Always be seated with the safety belt locked during

operation (if assembled). The machine in operation

should always be controlled by the operator.

z Operate the control handle of the working equipment

properly to prevent misoperation.

z Examine and listen to the exceptions carefully, and

report immediately. Do not repair while in operation.

z An overload is dangerous. Shandong Lingong

Construction Machinery Co. Ltd assumes no

resposibility for the injury or damage induced by

overload.

z It is dangerous to hit any object at a high speed.

Damage may be done to the loaders, the goods and
the operator.

z Keep perpendicular during loading and unloading

materials. If working in a side direction, the steering
cylinder and differential carriers may be damaged,
and the machine may be unbalanced.

z Confirm the ambient conditions and the operation

before driving to load and unload materials.

z Check the status of the working area before entering

a narrow passageway such as tunnel,

overbridge and

garage. Take care with the working devices during
operation.

z Operate down wind in strong windy weather.

z Be careful when the lift arm reaches the upper limit. Loading in the upper limit position may

cause destabilization of loader. So the driving speed
should be slow and the bucket should tilt forward
slowly.

z When unloading to the truck or tipper, make sure the

bucket does not hit the truck or tipper. Do not allow

anyone to stand under the bucket or to let the bucket

go over the cab of the truck.

z When driving backwards, ensure visibility of what is

behind you.

z Install lighting systems during dark conditions. And

stop work when there is smoke, fog, sand, or dust

which affects visibility.

z When working at night, please make sure:

Proper lighting system is installed.

Fuction light works normally.

To carefully estimate the height and distance of

objectives.

Keep alert and stop the engine and examine the

environment and the machine frequently.

z Make sure that every bridge is strong enough to let

the machine pass.

z Don’t use the machine for any work other than what

the machine is designed for. It may damage the parts

or cause an accident when using the head of the

working equipment for other fuctions, such as hook,

grasp, draw, push, or tow.

6.2 Pay Attention to Surroundings

z No unauthorized person is allowed to enter the

working area because the working equipment will

work up and down, turn left and right and move

forward and backward all the time. Keep people

away from all sides of the working equipment.

z To ensure safety when working at the side of a road

or hear a cliff where the land may shift, designate a

person to watch and direct at all times.

z Take care with the dumping position when unloading

sand or rocks from the high position.

z When pushing material off a cliff or when the

highest point is reached, the load may desrease

suddenly. Subsequently, the moving speed will

increase, so slow down in advance.

z When constructing a dam or unloading soil from a

cliff, form one pile first and use the second pile to

push the first one.

6.3 Ensure Ventilation in Close

Environment

z Open the window to ensure enough air when

operating, dealing with fuel, cleaning parts or

painting in close or badly ventilated environments to

prevent bodily injury. If this can not satisfy the need,

please assemble aerator.

z Prepare fire extinguishers for close environments

and know where they are stored and how to use

when working in this condition.

6.4 Don’t Get Close to Dangerous

Environment

If the ejected gas from the silencer hits flammable

material, or the vent-pipe is close to the flammable

material, fire may occur. Be aware of the flammable

materials such as lipin, cotton, papers, dry grass,

chemicals and oily or oiled rags.

6.5 Don’t Get Close to High Voltage Wire

Do not touch the aerial electric wire. Electroshock

may result in even when close to a high voltage wire.

The distance between the loader and the electric wire

should be:
z At least 2m (6.5ft) at low voltage condition.
z At least 4m (13ft) at 40KV high voltage condition

(electric wire is generally supported by fixed
