SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
SAFETY IS THE OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY:
- The Skid Steer Loader is a highly maneuverable and compact machine. In operation, it is rugged and useful under a wide variety of conditions. This presents an operator with hazards common for off highway, rough terrain applications but are not unique for use of Bobcat loaders.
- The loader has an internal combustion engine with resultant heat and exhaust. All exhaust gases can kill so the loader must be used with adequate ventilation.
- The loader has a spark arrestor muffler which is required for operation in certain areas. The dealer recommends the capabilities and restrictions of the loader and attachments for each application. The dealer demonstrates the safe operation of the loader according to Melroe’s instructional materials which are also available to all operators.
- The dealer can also identify unsafe modifications or use of unapproved attachments. The attachments and buckets are designed for rated capacity and secure fastening to the loader.
- The user must check with the dealer, or Melroe Company literature, to determine safe loads of materials of specified densities for his loader-attachment combination.
