FOREWORD SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY INFORMATION 1
To enable you to use this machine safely, safety precautions and labels are given in this manual and affixed to the
machine to give explanations of situations involving potential hazards and of the methods of avoiding such situa-
tions.

Signal words

The following signal words are used to inform you that there is a potential hazardous situation that may lead to per-
sonal injury or damage.

In this manual and on machine labels, the following signal words are used to express the potential level of hazard.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or
DANGER serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
WARNING or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
CAUTION moderate injury. This word is used also to alert against unsafe practices that may
cause property damage.

Example of safety message using signal word

WARNING
When standing up from the operator's seat, always place the lock lever in the LOCK position.
If you accidentally touch the control levers when they are not locked, this may cause a serious injury or
death.

Other signal words

In addition to the above, the following signal words are used to indicate precautions that should be followed to pro-
tect the machine or to give information that is useful to know.

This word is used for precautions that must be taken to avoid actions which could shorten
NOTICE
the life of the machine.
REMARKS This word is used for information that is useful to know.

SAFETY INFORMATION FOREWORD

q Safety labels

Safety labels are affixed to the machine to inform the operator or maintenance worker on the spot when carrying
out operation or maintenance of the machine that may involve hazard.

This machine uses “Safety labels using words“ and “Safety labels using pictograms“ to indicate safety procedures.

Example of safety label using words

Part No.
Safety labels using pictogram

Safety pictograms use a picture to express a level of hazard-

ous condition equivalent to the signal word. These safety pic-
tograms use pictures in order to let the operator or
maintenance worker understand the level and type of hazard-
ous condition at all times.

Safety pictograms show the type of hazardous condition at the

top or left side, and the method of avoiding the hazardous con-
dition at the bottom or right side. In addition, the type of haz-
ardous condition is displayed inside a triangle and the method
of avoiding the hazardous condition is shown inside a circle.

Part No.

Komatsu cannot predict every circumstance that might involve a potential hazard in operation and maintenance.
Therefore, the safety messages in this manual and on the machine may not include all possible safety precau-
tions.

If any procedures or actions not specifically recommended or allowed in this manual are used, it is your responsi-
bility to take the necessary steps to ensure safety.

In no event should you engage in prohibited uses or actions described in this manual.

The explanations, values, and illustrations in this manual were prepared based on the latest information available
at that time. Continuing improvements in the design of this machine can lead to changes in detail which may not
be reflected in this manual. Consult Komatsu or your Komatsu distributor for the latest available information of
your machine or for questions regarding information in this manual.

The numbers in circles in the illustrations correspond to the numbers in ( ) in the text. (For example: 1 -> (1))

Noise emission levels 1

Two labels indicating the machine noise level are affixed on the
machine.

q Sound pressure level at the operator’s station, measured

according to ISO6396 (Dynamic test method, simulated
working cycle).

q Sound power level emitted by the machine, measured

73
according to ISO 6395 (Dynamic test method, simulated
working cycle). This is the guaranteed value as specified
in European directive 2000/14/EC.

SAFETY INFORMATION FOREWORD

Vibration levels 1
When used for its intended purpose, levels of vibration for the
earth-moving machine transmitted from the operator’s seat are
lower than or equal to the tested vibrations for the relative
machinery class in compliance with ISO 7096.

The actual acceleration value for the hands and arms is less
than or equal to 2.5 m/s². The actual acceleration value for the
body is less than or equal to 0.5 m/s².

These values were determined using a representative machine

and measured during the typical operating condition indicated
below according to the measurement procedures that are
defined in the standards ISO 2631/1 and ISO 5349.

Operating condition:
Excavating (Digging-loading-rotating-unloading-rotating)

Guide to Reduce Vibration Levels on Machine 1

The following guides can help an operator of this machine to
reduce the whole body vibration levels:

1. Use the correct equipment and attachments.

2. Maintain the machine according to this manual

q Tension of crawler (for crawler machines)

q Brake and steering systems

q Controls, hydraulic system and linkages

3. Keep the terrain where the machine is working and travel-

ing in good condition

q Remove any large rocks or obstacles

q Fill any ditches and holes

q Site manager should provide machine operators with

machine and schedule time to maintain terrain condi-
tions

4. Use a seat that meets ISO 7096 and keep the seat main-
tained and adjusted

q Adjust the seat and suspension for the weight and size
of the operator

q Wear seat belt

q Inspect and maintain the seat suspension and adjust-

ment mechanisms

5. Steer, brake, accelerate, and move the attachment levers

and pedals slowly so that the machine moves smoothly

1-6
FOREWORD SAFETY INFORMATION

6. Adjust the machine speed and travel path to minimize the

vibration level

q When pushing with bucket or blade, avoid sudden

loading; load gradually

q Drive around obstacles and rough terrain conditions

q Slow down when it is necessary to go over rough ter-

rain

q Make the curve radius of traveling path as large as

possible

q Travel at low speed when traveling around sharp

curves

7. Minimize vibrations for long work cycle or long distance

traveling

q Reduce speed to prevent bounce

q Transport machines long distances between worksites

8. The following guidelines can be effective to minimize risks

of low back pain

q Operate the machine only when you are in good

health.

q Provide breaks to reduce long periods of sitting in the

same posture

q Do not jump down from the cab or machine

q Do not repeatedly handle and lift loads
