General Safety Warnings

Emergency Procedures

Before operating any equipment, review emergency procedures and check that all safety precautions have been taken.

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN: Press the urgent switch to STOP.

Electric Strike Description

When working near electric cables, remember the following: Electricity follows all paths to ground, not just the path of least resistance.

Pipes, hoses, and cables will conduct electricity back to all equipment. Low voltage current can injure or kill. Almost one-third of work-related electrocutions result from contact with less than 440 volts. Most electric strikes are not noticeable, but indications include: power outage, smoke, explosion, popping noises, arcing electricity.

If an Electric Line is Damaged

If you suspect an electric line has been damaged and you are on the tractor, DO NOT MOVE. Remain on the tractor and take the following actions (order and degree depend on the situation): Warn people nearby that an electric strike has occurred and instruct them to leave the area and contact the utility. Raise attachments and drive from the immediate area. Contact the utility company to shut off power. Do not return to the jobsite or allow anyone into the area until given permission by the utility company.

If you suspect an electric line has been damaged and you are off the tractor, DO NOT TOUCH THE TRACTOR. Take the following actions (order and degree depend on the situation): LEAVE THE AREA. The ground surface may be electrified, so take small steps with feet close together to reduce the hazard of being shocked. For more information, contact your Ditch Witch dealer. Contact the utility company to shut off power. Do not return to the jobsite or allow anyone into the area until given permission by the utility company.

If a Gas Line is Damaged

If you suspect a gas line has been damaged, take the following actions (order and degree depend on the situation): Immediately shut off engine(s) if safe and quick to do so. Remove any ignition source(s) if safe and quick to do so. Warn others that a gas line has been cut and they should leave the area. Leave the jobsite as quickly as possible. Immediately call your local emergency phone number and utility company. If the jobsite is along a street, stop traffic from driving near the jobsite. Do not return to the jobsite until given permission by emergency personnel and the utility company.

If a Fiber Optic Cable is Damaged

Do not look into cut ends of fiber optic or unidentified cable, as vision damage can occur.

If Machine Catches on Fire

Perform the emergency shutdown procedure and then take the following actions (order and degree depend on the situation): Immediately move the battery disconnect switch (if equipped) to the disconnect position. If the fire is small and a fire extinguisher is available, attempt to extinguish it. If the fire cannot be extinguished, leave the area as quickly as possible and contact emergency personnel.
