ROLLER SAFETY
DANGER
NEVER operate the equipment in an explosive atmosphere or near combustible materials. An explosion or fi re could result causing severe bodily harm or even death.
WARNING
NEVER disconnect any emergency or safety devices.
These devices are intended for operator safety.
Disconnection of these devices can cause severe injury, bodily harm or even death. Disconnection of any of these devices will void all warranties.
CAUTION
NEVER lubricate components or attempt service on a running machine.
Never leave the roller unattended with the engine running. Turn off engine.
Use chock blocks when parking roller on a grade.
Use extreme care when operating near obstructions, on slippery surfaces, grades, and slide slopes.
When reversing, particularly on the edges and banks of ditches, as well as in front of obstacles, the operator must stay in a standing position at a safe distance from the machine.
When operating near any house/building or pipelines, always check the effect of machine vibration. Stop work if necessary.
DO NOT operate the roller with the covers open.
ALWAYS keep the machine away from other personnel and obstacles. Always keep immediate are free of bystanders
NOTICE
ALWAYS keep the machine in proper running condition.
Fix damage to machine and replace any broken parts immediately.
DO NOT use worn-out hoses or couplings. Inspect daily.
ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.
ENGINE SAFETY
DANGER
The engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can cause death if inhaled.
The engine of this equipment requires an adequate free flow of cooling air. NEVER operate this equipment in any enclosed or narrow area where free flow of the
air is restricted. If the air flow is restricted it will cause injury to people and property and serious damage to the equipment or engine.
WARNING
DO NOT place hands or fingers inside engine compartment when engine is running.
NEVER operate the engine with heat shields or guards removed.
Keep fingers, hands hair and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury.
DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot. Hot oil will gush out of the oil tank and severely scald any persons in the general area of the roller.
CAUTION
NEVER touch the hot exhaust manifold, muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool before servicing equipment.
Always turn the engine off before performing maintenance.
NOTICE
NEVER run engine without an air filter or with a dirty air filter. Severe engine damage may occur. Service air filter frequently to prevent engine malfunction.
NEVER tamper with the factory settings of the engine or engine governor. Damage
to the engine or equipment can result if operating in speed ranges above the
maximum allowable.
NEVER tip the engine to extreme angles during lifting as it may cause oil to gravitate into the cylinder head, making the engine start difficult.
FUEL SAFETY
DANGER
DO NOT add fuel to equipment if it is placed inside truck bed with plastic liner. Possibility exists of explosion or fire due to static electricity.
DO NOT start the engine near spilled fuel or combustible fluids. Diesel fuel is extremely flammable and its vapors can cause an explosion if ignited.
ALWAYS refuel in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks and open flames.
ALWAYS use extreme caution when working with flammable liquids.
DO NOT fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill tank, since spilled fuel could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine parts or sparks from the ignition system.
Store fuel in appropriate containers, in well-ventilated areas and away from sparks and flames.
NEVER use fuel as a cleaning agent.
DO NOT smoke around or near the equipment. Fire or explosion could result
from fuel vapors or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine.
BATTERY SAFETY (ELECTRIC START ONLY)
DANGER
DO NOT drop the battery. There is a possibility that the battery will explode.
DO NOT expose the battery to open flames, sparks, cigarettes, etc. The battery contains combustible gases and liquids. If these gases and liquids come into contact with a flame or spark, an explosion could occur.
WARNING
ALWAYS wear safety glasses when handling the battery to avoid eye irritation.
The battery contains acids that can cause injury to the eyes and skin.
Use well-insulated gloves when picking up the battery.
ALWAYS keep the battery charged. If the battery is not charged, combustible gas will build up.
DO NOT charge battery if frozen. Battery can explode.
When frozen, warm the battery to at least 61°F (16°C).
ALWAYS recharge the battery in a well-ventilated environment to avoid the risk of a dangerous concentration of combustible gases.
If the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes into contact with clothing or skin, rinse skin or clothing immediately with plenty of water.
If the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes into contact with eyes, rinse eyes immediately with plenty of water and contact the nearest doctor or hospital to seek medical attention.
CAUTION
ALWAYS disconnect the NEGATIVE battery terminal before performing service on the equipment.
ALWAYS keep battery cables in good working condition.
Repair or replace all worn cables.
TRANSPORTING SAFETY
CAUTION
NEVER allow any person or animal to stand underneath the equipment while lifting.
NOTICE
Before lifting, make sure that the equipment parts are not damaged and screws are not loose or missing.
Use lifting equipment capable of lifting the weight of the roller.
Always make sure crane or lifting device has been properly secured to the lifting bail (hook) of the equipment.
ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting.
NEVER lift the equipment while the engine is running.
Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel cock to prevent fuel from spilling.
Use adequate lifting cable (wire or rope) of sufficient strength.
Use one point suspension hook and lift straight upwards with sufficient bearing capacity to prevent machine from tilting or slipping.
DO NOT lift machine to unnecessary heights.
ALWAYS make sure that roller is secured correctly when transporting on a trailer. Make sure all supports attaching the roller to the trailer are tight.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY/DECOMMISSIONING
NOTICE
Decommissioning is a controlled process used to safely retire a piece of equipment that is no longer serviceable.
If the equipment poses an unacceptable and unrepairable safety risk due to wear or damage or is no longer cost effective to maintain (beyond life-cycle reliability) and is to be decommissioned (demolition and dismantlement),be
sure to follow rules below:
DO NOT pour waste or oil directly onto the ground, down a drain or into any water source.
Contact your country's Department of Public Works or recycling agency in your area and arrange for proper disposal of any electrical components, waste or oil associated with this equipment.
When the life cycle of this equipment is over, remove battery and bring to appropriate facility for lead reclamation. Use safety precautions when handling batteries that contain sulfuric acid.
When the life cycle of this equipment is over, it is recommended that the trowel frame and all other metal parts be sent to a recycling center.
Metal recycling involves the collection of metal from discarded products and its transformation into raw materials to use in manufacturing a new product.
Recyclers and manufacturers alike promote the process of recycling metal. Using a metal recycling center promotes energy cost savings.
EMISSIONS INFORMATION
NOTICE
The diesel engine used in this equipment has been designed to reduce harmful levels of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx)
contained in diesel exhaust emissions.
This engine has been certified to meet US EPA Evaporative emissions requirements in the installed configuration.
Attempting to modify or make adjustments to the engine emission system by unauthorized personnel without proper training could damage the equipment or create an unsafe condition.
Additionally, modifying the fuel system may adversely affect evaporative emissions, resulting in fines or other penalties.
Emission Control Label
The emission control label is an integral part of the emission system and is strictly controlled by regulations.
The label must remain with the engine for its entire life.
If a replacement emission label is needed, please contact your authorized Kubota Engine Distributor. |
