2.1 Safety Precautions for the Operation
Safety and Protective Devices
Before every shift, the operator must check the operativeness of all controls and safety elements as well as the
proper installation of all protective devices. The tamper is only allowed to be operated with all protective devices
in place. The control's functionality is not allowed to be impaired or annulled.
Before starting the tamper, the operator must take his personal noise protection measures. The engine is only
allowed to be started after is has been assured that the tamper cannot automatically start moving.
Conduct in Case of Failures
If defective safety devices or other failures which might affect the safe operation of the tamper are ascertained,
the supervisor must be informed without delay. In case of malfunctions endangering the unit's operational safety,
the machine must be turned off immediately.
Conduct of the Machine Operator
During the machine's operation, the operator has to constantly supervise the operational safety of the tamper.
When running the machine , the operator is not allowed to leave the operating controls of the tamper. In addition,
he must always have a sufficient visibility on the tamper's zone of operation.
Stability
Tampers must be used and operated in a way ensuring their stability. The machine's stability is especially
endangered on slopes and brinks. Thus, keep clear of slopes and brinks.
Driving and Compacting
When working on slopes, the operator must always walk on the uphill side. Compaction work on slopes exceeding
the maximum gradeability of the tamper is prohibited. When working/travelling on slopes, always use extreme
precaution and work directly in uphill or downhill direction.
Moist and loose bases considerably reduce the grip of the tamper on slopes. Increased danger of accident!
Exhaust Precautions
Never inhale exhaust gasses. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, oderless and extremely dangerous gas
which can cause unconsciousness or death. Never operate the engine inddors or in a poorly ventilated area, such as
tunnerl, cave, etc. Exercise extreme care when operating the engine near people or animals. Keep the exhaust pipe
free of foreign objects.
