Guidelines
Follow these guidelines before operating any jobsite equipment:
• Complete proper training and read operator’s manual before using equipment.
• Contact your local One-Call (811 in USA) or the One-Call referral number (888-258-0808 in USA and
Canada) to have underground utilities located before working. Also contact any utilities that do not
participate in the One-Call service. Classify jobsite based on its hazards and use correct tools and
machinery, safety equipment, and work methods for jobsite.
• Mark jobsite clearly and keep spectators away.
• Wear personal protective equipment.
• Review jobsite hazards, safety and emergency procedures, and individual responsibilities with all
personnel before work begins.
• Replace missing or damaged safety signs.
• Use equipment carefully. Stop operation and investigate anything that does not look or feel right.
• Contact your equipment dealer if you have any question about operation, maintenance, or equipment
use.
