Avoid Injury from Back-Over and Swing

If any person is present near the machine when backing
or swinging the upperstructure, the machine may hit or
run over that person, resulting in serious injury or death.
To avoid back-over and swing accidents:
•
Always look around BEFORE YOU BACK UP AND
SWING THE MACHINE. BE SURE THAT ALL
BYSTANDERS ARE CLEAR.

Keep the travel alarm in working condition (if equipped).
ALWAYS BE ALERT FOR BYSTANDERS MOVING
INTO THE WORK AREA. USE THE HORN OR OTHER
SIGNAL TO WARN BYSTANDERS BEFORE MOVING

•
USE A SIGNAL PERSON WHEN BACKING UP IF
YOUR VIEW IS OBSTRUCTED. ALWAYS KEEP THE

conform to your local regulations, when work conditions
require a signal person.
•
No machine motions shall be made unless signals are
clearly understood by both signal person and operator.
•
Learn the meanings of all ags, signs, and markings
used on the job and conrm who has the responsibility
for signaling.

Keep windows, mirrors, and lights clean and in good
condition.

lighting.
