SUMMARY OF SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS FOR LIFTING IN
DIGGING MODE

DANGER!
Unsafe use of the excavator while making rated lifts could
cause serious, potentially fatal injuries or extensive damage
to the machine or nearby property. Do not let anyone
operate the machine unless they've been properly trained
and understand the information in the Operation and
Maintenance Manual.

To lift safely while in Digging Mode, the following items must be

evaluated by the operator and the work site crew.
• Condition of ground support.
• Excavator configuration and attachments.
• Weight, lifting height and lifting radius.
• Safe rigging of the load.
• Proper handling of the suspended load.
Tag lines on opposite sides of the load can be very helpful in
keeping a suspended load secure, if they are anchored safely to
control points on the ground.

WARNING!
NEVER wrap a tag line around your hands or body.
NEVER rely on tag lines or make rated lifts when wind gusts
are more than 48.3 km/h (30 MPH). Be prepared for any type
of wind gust when working with loads that have a large
surface area.

Always engage the "Digging Mode" control on the Instrument

Panel before using the excavator for lifting work.

WARNING!
If you need more information or have any questions or
concerns about safe operating procedures or working the
excavator correctly in a particular application or in the
specific conditions of your individual operating
environment, please consult your local DOOSAN
representative.

OP000061 Safety
1-15
UNAUTHORIZED
MODIFICATIONS
Any modification made without authorization or written approval
from DOOSAN can create a safety hazard, for which the
machine owner must be held responsible.
For safety's sake, replace all OEM parts with the correct
authorized or genuine DOOSAN part. For example, not taking
the time to replace fasteners, bolts or nuts with the correct
replacement parts could lead to a condition in which the safety
of critical assemblies is dangerously compromised.

GENERAL HAZARD
INFORMATION

Safety Rules
Only trained and authorized personnel can operate and maintain
the machine.
Follow all safety rules, precautions and instructions when
operating or performing maintenance on the machine.
Do not operate the machine if you are not feeling well, if you are
taking medication that makes you feel sleepy, if you have been
drinking, or if you are suffering from emotional problems. These
problems will interfere with your sense of judgement in
emergencies and may cause accidents.
When working with another operator or with a person on work
site traffic duty, be sure that all personnel know the nature of the
work and understand all hand signals that are to be used.
Always observe strictly any other rules related to safety.

Safety Features
Be sure that all guards and covers are installed in their proper
position. Have guards and covers repaired immediately if
damaged.
Be sure that you understand the method of use of safety
features such as safety lock lever and the seat belt, and use
them properly.
Never remove any safety features. Always keep them in good
operating condition.
Failure to use safety features according to the instructions in the
Operation and Maintenance Manual could result in serious
bodily injury.

Safety OP000061
1-16
Inside Operator's Compartment
When entering the operator's compartment, always remove all
mud and oil from the soles of your shoes. If you operate the
travel pedal with mud or oil stuck to your shoes, your foot may
slip and this may cause a serious accident.
After using the ashtray, make sure that any matches or
cigarettes are properly extinguished, and be sure to close the
ashtray. If the ashtray is left open, there is danger of fire.
Do not stick suction pads to the window glass. Suction pads act
as a lens and may cause fire.
Do not leave lighters laying around the operator's compartment.
If the temperature inside the operator's compartment becomes
high, there is danger that the lighter may explode.
Do not use cellular telephones inside the operator's
compartment when driving or operating the machine. There
is danger that this may lead to an unexpected accident.
Never bring any dangerous objects such as flammable or
explosive items into the operator's cabin.
To ensure safety, do not use the radio or music headphones
when operating the machine. There is danger that this may lead
to a serious accident.
When operating the machine, do not put your hands or head out
of the window.
When standing up from the operator's seat, always place safety
lock lever securely in the "LOCK" position. If you accidentally
touch the work equipment levers when they are not locked, the
machine may suddenly move and cause serous injury or
damage.
When leaving the machine, lower the work equipment
completely to the ground, set safety lock lever to the "LOCK"
position and shut down engine. Use the key to lock all the
equipment. Always remove the key and take it with you.

Clothing and Personal Protective Items

Contain long hair, and avoid loose clothing and jewelry. They can
catch on controls or in protruding parts and cause serious injury
or death.
Do not wear oily clothes. They are highly flammable.
Full eye protection, a hard hat, safety shoes and gloves may be
required at the work site.
While working on the machine, never use inadequate tools. They
could break or slip, causing injury, or they may not adequately HAOA020L
perform intended functions. Figure 2

OP000061 Safety
1-17
Breathing Masks, Ear Protection May Be
Required

• Never use compressed air for cleaning. ARO1770L
• Use water for cleaning to keep down the dust. Figure 7
• Work on the machine or component with the wind at
your back whenever possible.
• Always observe any rules and regulations related to
the work site and working environment.

Injury from Work Equipment

Do not enter or put your hand, arm or any other part of your
body between movable parts, such as between the work
equipment and cylinders, or between the machine and work
equipment.
If the control levers are operated, the clearance between the
machine and the work equipment will change and this may lead
to serious damage or personal injury.
If going between movable parts is necessary, always position HDO1010L
and secure the work equipment so that it cannot move.
Figure 8

Fire Extinguisher and First Aid Kit

As a precaution if any injury or fire should occur, always do the
following.
• Be sure that fire extinguishers have been provided
and read the labels to ensure that you know now to
use them. It is recommended that an appropriately
sized (2.27 kg [5 lb] or larger) multipurpose "A/B/C"
fire extinguisher be mounted in the cabin. Check and
service the fire extinguisher at regular intervals and
make sure that all work site crew members are HDO1009L
adequately trained in its use. Figure 9
• Provide a first aid kit in the storage compartment and
keep another at the work site. Check the kit
periodically and make any additions if necessary.
• Know what to do in case of injury from fire.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance
service, hospital and fire department near your
telephone.

If the machine catches fire, it may lead to serious personal injury
or death. If a fire occurs during operation, escape from the
machine as follows;
• Turn the starter switch to the "O" (OFF) position and
shut down engine.
• If there is time, use the fire extinguisher to extinguish
as much of the fire as possible.
• Use the handrails and steps to escape from the
machine.
The above is the basic method for escaping from the machine,
but changing the method may be necessary according to the
conditions, so carry out practice drills at the work site.

Protection from Falling or Flying Objects

On work sites where there is danger that falling objects or flying
objects may hit the operator's cabin select a guard to match the
operating conditions to protect the operator.
Working in mines, tunnels, deep pits or on loose or wet surfaces
could produce danger of falling rock or hazardous flying objects.
Additional protection for the operator's cabin could be required in
the form of a FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) or
window guards.
HAOA110L
Figure 10

Never attempt to alter or modify any type of protective structure

reinforcement system, by drilling holes, welding, remounting or
relocating fasteners. Any serious impact or damage to the
system requires a complete integrity reevaluation. Reinstallation,
recertification and/or replacement of the system may be
necessary.
Contact your DOOSAN distributor for available safety guards
and/or recommendations if there is any danger of getting hit by
objects that could strike the operator's cabin. Make sure that all
other work site crew members are kept well away from the
excavator and safe from possible hazards. HAOA100L
Figure 11
For breaker operation, install a front guard and apply a
laminated coating sheet to the front glass. Contact your
DOOSAN distributor for recommendations.
When carrying out demolition or cutting operation, install a front
guard and top guard, and apply a laminated coating sheet to the
front glass.
When working in mines or quarries where there is danger of
falling rock, install FOPS (Falling Objects Protective Structure)
and apply a laminated coating sheet to the front glass.
If any glass on the machine is broken, replace it with new glass
immediately.

Attachment Precautions
Option kits are available through your dealer. Contact DOOSAN
for information on available one-way (single-acting) and two-way
(double-acting) piping / valving / auxiliary control kits. Because
DOOSAN cannot anticipate, identify or test all of the
attachments that owners may wish to install on their machines,
please contact DOOSAN for authorization and approval of
attachments, and their compatibility with options kits.

Accumulator
The pilot control system is equipped with an accumulator. For a
brief period of time after the engine has been shut down, the
accumulator will store a pressure charge that may enable
hydraulic controls to be activated. Activation of any controls may
enable the selected function to operate under force of gravity.
When performing maintenance on the pilot control system, the
hydraulic pressure in the system must be released as describe
in “Handling of Accumulator” on page 4-82.
The accumulator is charged with high-pressure nitrogen gas, so
it is extremely dangerous if it is handled in the wrong way.
Always observe the following precautions;
• Do not drill or make any holes in the accumulator or
expose it any flame, fire or heat source.
• Do not weld on the accumulator, or try attaching
anything to it.
• When carrying out disassembly or maintenance of
the accumulator, or when disposing of the
accumulator, the charged gas must be properly
released. Contact your DOOSAN distributor.
• Wear safety goggles and protective gloves when
working on an accumulator. Hydraulic oil under
pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious
injuries.

Indoor Ventilation
Engine exhaust gases can cause fatal accidents, and
unconsciousness, loss of alertness, judgement and motor
control and serious injury.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation before starting the
engine in any enclosed area.
You should also be aware of open windows, doors or ductwork
into which exhaust may be carried, or blown by the wind,
exposing others to danger. ARO1770L

Emergency Exit
This machine is equipped with a glass breaking tool. It is behind
the operator seat in the upper right corner of the cabin. This tool
can be used in case of an emergency situation that requires the
breaking of glass to exit from the operator's cabin. Grip the
handle firmly and use the sharp point to break the glass.

WARNING!
