Be Aware of the Working Environment
Avoid long-term
operation in very hot or
very cold weather.
Be aware and keep
clear of bystanders.
Be extremely careful of
slippery terrain, especially
during rainy weather or
when pulling debris
towards you.
If contact is
made with a
hard object,
stop the
engine and
inspect the
sweepers and
drums for
damage.
Be constantly alert for objects and debris
that could be thrown either from the
sweeper belts or bounced from a hard
surface.
ALWAYS clear your work area of trash or
hidden debris that could be thrown back at
you or toward a bystander. When operating
in rocky terrain or near electric wires or
fences, use extreme caution to avoid
contacting such items with the sweeper
belts.
