CLOTHING AND PERSONAL
PROTECTIVE ITEMS
Keep hands and clothing well away from engine
fan and moving parts while engine is running.
ALWAYS wear appropriate safety glasses, goggles
or face shield when working. (FIG. 30) Proper eye
protection can keep flying particles from grinding,
drilling or hammering operations, or fluids such as
fuel, solvents, lubricants and brake fluids, from
damaging your eyes. Normal glasses do NOT
provide adequate protection.
ALWAYS wear a hard hat and safety shoes. (FIG. 30)
ALWAYS wear hearing protectors when exposed to
high noise levels for extended periods. ALWAYS wear

PERFORM MAINTENANCE SAFELY
•
Keep machine in proper adjustment at all times.
Serious injury could result if adjustments are
neglected.
•
Whenever possible, AVOID working on a machine
with the engine running. If the engine must be run
to make checks or adjustments, put the transmission
in neutral, set the parking brake and chock the
drum and wheels securely ... front and rear ... to
prevent movement in either direction.
•
Personnel can be caught by moving parts when the
guards are removed for access in making repairs.
A repair or maintenance job is not complete until
guards, plates and other safety devices have been
replaced.
•
NEVER put your fingers in open gears or reach
through the spokes of a gear.
•
Before working on the fuel system, close the fuel
shut-off valve. NEVER smoke or use open flames
near the machine while working on the fuel system.
•
Remove and store all tools before resuming
operation.
