Section 1 - General Safety Practices
1-4 3121857
• DO NOT level machine with boom/attachment above 1,2 m (4 ft).
• Carry load as low as possible. Tether suspended loads to restrict movement.
• Understand how to properly use the capacity charts located in cab (see
page 4-3).
• Weight of all rigging (slings, etc.) must be included as part of load.
• Start, travel, turn and stop slowly to prevent load from swinging.
• Beware of wind. Wind can cause a suspended load to swing and cause
dangerous side loads - even with tag lines.
• DO NOT attempt to use telehandler frame-leveling to compensate for load swing.
• Keep heavy part of load closest to attachment.
• Never drag the load; lift vertically.
