Fuel Safety; Health & Safety - PACLITE Equipment TR-800D Manual Del Operador


This machine is designed to eliminate the possible risks arising from the use of it. However, risks
DO reside, and these residual risks are not clearly recognisable and may cause personal injury or
property damage, and possibly death. If such unpredictable and unrecognisable risks become
apparent, the machine must be stopped immediately, and operator or his supervisor must take
appropriate measure to eliminate such risks. It is sometimes necessary that the manufacturer
must be informed of such event for future counter measuring.

Fuel Safety

Fuel is flammable. It may cause injury and property damage. Shut down the
engine, extinguish all open flames and do not smoke while filling the fuel tank.
Always wipe up any spilled fuel.
WARNING

Before re-fuelling, switch off the engine and allow it to cool.

When re-fuelling, use a proper funnel, and avoid spilling over the engine.

When re-fuelling, DO NOT smoke or allow naked flames in the area.

Spilt fuel must be made safe immediately by using sand. If fuel is spilt on your clothes, change
them.

Store fuel in an approved, purpose made container away from heat and sources of ignition.
Health & Safety
Vibration
Some vibration from the compacting operation is transmitted through the handle to the operator's
hands. Ensure operator rotation and do not exceed the maximum recommended usage times.
Dust
The compaction process can produce dust, which may be hazardous to your health. Always wear a
mask that is suited to the type of dust being produced.
Fuel
Do not ingest fuel or inhale fuel vapors and avoid contact with your skin. Wash fuel splashes
immediately. If you get fuel in your eyes, irrigate with copious amounts of water and seek medical
attention as soon as possible.
Exhaust Fumes
The exhaust fumes produced by this machine are highly toxic and can kill!
WARNING
Do not operate the TR Rammer indoors or in confined spaces. Make sure the work area is adequately
