Starting processes

• The machine must only be used for the purpose for which it has been intended and always for
authorized and trained personnel for its use.
• The operator must become familiar with the operation of the machine before using it for
first time. You must know the function and direction of operation of each control, how to quickly stop
the engine, the possibilities and limitations of the machine, the space necessary to maneuver and the
mission of the safety devices.
• Pay special attention to all information and warning plates on the machine. Maintenance, repair or
any modification of the machine may only be carried out by specialized personnel.
• Every time the machine starts operating, its general condition must be checked. The machine controls
will only be used by authorized personnel and it is strictly prohibited for unauthorized personnel to
operate it even under the delegation of an authorized operator.
• Do not use the machine when any anomaly is detected during the daily inspection or during use. In
this case, put the machine out of service and notify immediately.

4, SAFE OPERATION PROCEDURES

ensuring that the machinery operates as indicated in the operating instructions. View, read and understand all
visual instructions and warnings attached to the system or in the different work areas in which it operates.

In order to avoid risks, the motor grader operator must take into account the following points:

• You must respect the rules established at the work regarding circulation, signage and parking;
Respect speed and vehicle traffic lanes. You must know the status of the work: if there are open
ditches, embankments, cable routing, etc.
• You must know the height of the circulating machine, as well as areas of limited height or excessively
narrow tracks. While driving, the blade must be raised off the ground and must not protrude from the
body of the machine.
• When you have to get in or out of the cabin, you will do so facing it, using the steps provided for this
purpose, you will not go up or down by jumping. Nor will it do so if the grader is moving.
• The motor grader is not prepared to carry people.
• Use extreme caution when working near ditches or embankments.
• To avoid impacts when loading trucks, the operation will be carried out with caution and without the
driver being inside or in the tub area.
• When the machine is stopped, the operator will leave the blade raised without protruding
of the width of the machine body
• To prevent overturning when material is being removed, the grader will be
arranged facing the slope.
• Do not leave the vehicle on steep ramps or near ditches.
• Avoid driving in areas that exceed a slope of approximately 20%.
• When driving on slopes the machine must be in gear; it will never be in neutral. The motor grader
must have acoustic reverse gear signaling and light signaling.
• You will have the instructions and maintenance manual.
• After driving through places with water, the grader operator
will check the proper functioning of the brakes.
• He will ensure the proper functioning of the light signaling device when the machine is running, and
also the acoustic device for reversing.
• Maintenance and interventions on the engine must be carried out by appropriately trained personnel,
preventing projections of high-temperature liquids, fires due to flammable liquids or being trapped by
handling running engines or moving parts.

5. BEFORE YOU START WORK

RISKS - PREVENTIVE MEASURES

Entrapment of the operator due to the machine overturning, hitting objects, hitting other workers, running over
and electrical contact:

• Know the safety instructions contained in the site's Health and Safety Plan for carrying out work with
this type of machine.

SAFETY AND HEALTH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AT

BASK AKO W WORK

Department of Risk Prevention and

PR-GI-PTS-004 Version 1
Environment

• Be informed every day of other jobs that may generate risks (holes, ditches, etc.), of the simultaneous
performance of other jobs and of the state of the work environment (slopes, obstacles, ice, etc.).
• Know the workplace where the machine will move or work. Especially, the type of terrain, the points
where there may be height, width or weight restrictions and the presence of overhead power lines.

Crashes against other vehicles, hits to other workers and run overs:

• Follow the traffic rules established on the construction site and, in general, those marked in the
Highway Code.
• If necessary, place appropriate protections regarding the circulation area of pedestrians, workers or
vehicles (fences, signs, etc.).
• The machine must be registered to be able to circulate on public roads and must have the required
safety and signaling elements (rotating light, rear-view mirrors, etc.).
• To circulate within the construction site, it is recommended that the driver have at least a class D
driving license. When traveling on public roads, the driver must possess it.

Carbon monoxide inhalation poisoning and asphyxiation:

• You can only work with the machine in closed places (inside warehouses, tunnels, etc.) when it can
be guaranteed that adequate and sufficient ventilation will be maintained during the work. In this
case, the engine must be stopped when the machine is not in use.

Fire and Explosion:

• Never use the machine in potentially explosive atmospheres (near storage of flammable materials
such as paint, fuel, etc.).

Entrapment of the operator due to the machine overturning and objects falling onto the driving position:

• Avoid driving and working near the edges of excavations, ditches, slopes or unevenness. If
necessary, the machine must have a rollover protection structure (ROPS).
• The edges of excavations and castings must be marked off and have elements that warn the operator
that he is approaching them excessively.

Impact of objects:

• Avoid carrying out work in areas where there is a risk of objects falling onto the driving position. When
necessary, the machine must have a protective structure (FOPS) in the direction of the object's fall
(top, front, side or rear).
• Check the existence of a plate on the machine that ensures the arrangement of these structures.

Blows due to lack of visibility and dust inhalation:

^[BASK AKOW SAFETY AND HEALTH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AT

WORK

Department of Risk Prevention and

PR-GI-PTS-004 Version 1
Environment

• When there is excess environmental dust in the workplace, as a result of the circulation of other
vehicles or the work itself, and the machine does not have a closed cabin, it is recommended to
moisten the area beforehand, so that dust is avoided. but without producing sludge.

Direct electrical contact, fire, explosion and poisoning due to inhalation of toxic gases:

• Know precisely the location and depth of underground conduits (water, gas pipes, sewage networks
and electrical cables). When it is not possible to know the exact location of the underground electricity
and/or gas conduits, metal detection devices must be used to locate them.

4
Blows due to lack of visibility and loss of control of the machine:

• When natural lighting is insufficient, work must be stopped if the machine does not have its own
lighting system or if there is no artificial lighting that guarantees adequate visibility in the workplace.
• Suspend work when weather conditions are adverse (fog, rain, etc.).
• Large loads should not be handled under strong winds.

Fall of the blade on the lower limbs and blows:

• When it is necessary to change the blade for another of a different size, the machine must be placed
on firm, level ground and the blade must rest completely on the ground.
• Use a soft hammer or ejector punch to insert or extract the pins. Use gloves and safety glasses
during these operations.
• Never exceed the maximum sheet size recommended by the manufacturer

6. INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

The operator of the motor grader must use leather gloves, a lumbar belt to avoid vibrations; If necessary, you
will also use hearing and vision protectors and dust masks. During work outside the cabin, in the construction
space, you will use a safety helmet, safety shoes and a reflective vest if necessary.

The grader must have a roll-over cabin to protect the risk of being trapped in the event of a rollover. To do
this, and to avoid damage from impacts, you must use the seat belt. The ideal cabin is one that protects
against inhalation of dust also produced by the worker with the same motor grader and that enters the eyes,
against deafness caused by the noise of the motor grader and against thermal stress or sunstroke in summer.

Other recommendations:

• Wear work clothes with adjustable cuffs. It is not recommended to wear pendants,
chains, loose clothing, etc. that can get caught with elements of the machine.
• The personal protective equipment that appears in the Safety Plan must be used.

brake applied and the battery disconnected.
• Do not smoke or remain on the vehicle while refueling.
• Avoid proximity to operations that may generate a source of heat.
• Do not store greasy rags or flammable materials near the exhaust pipe.
• If you do not refuel with a hose, pour the fuel into the tank with the help of a funnel to avoid
unnecessary spills.
• If fuel is spilled, do not start the engine until the spilled liquid has been cleaned up.
• If fuel containers are available on site, store them in a place specifically designated for this and mark
them with a label indicating “DANGER, FLAMMABLE PRODUCT” visibly.
• A fire extinguisher must be available in an accessible place near the machine or on it if the
manufacturer has equipped it with a fixing system for the fire extinguisher.

Burns and splashes and contact with hot and/or corrosive liquids:

• Do not touch the exhaust pipe or other engine parts while the engine is running or remains hot.
• Always fill the coolant, engine oil or hydraulic oil tanks with the engine stopped and cold. Use anti-
projection glasses and gloves during this operation.

13. SAFE MOTOR GRADE OPERATION

13.1. The operator must respond only to maneuver signals made by the designated person, but will obey the
stop signal made by any person at any time. The person in charge of signals, fully qualified by training or
experience, must be prepared when the operator does not have a direct and complete view of the point of
operation, unless there is an effective signaling or control system, for the direction operator. The person in
charge of signaling must be in a sufficiently illuminated area to be clearly visible to the operator during night
work. A legible table describing and explaining the signal system used must be posted in a visible location.
Make sure you and the signaller agree and understand them beforehand. Do not start work until the signs are
clearly understood. Remember that it is as important to see as it is to be seen. It is preferable to use exterior
lighting when in the slightest doubt. Other non-manual signal systems must be protected against
unauthorized use, breakage, weather or obstructions that will be detrimental to safe work.

13.2. START SAFELY.

Climb up carefully, using the handholds for this purpose. Do not jump. When getting on or off, check to see if
the ground or surface is slippery. Check all controls to ensure they are in the correct position before starting.
Consult the manufacturer's manual.

Check for warning labels. If there is a warning label on the starter switch or engine starting controls, do not
close the switch or start the engine until the person who placed it or someone who is aware of the
circumstances removes it. Never attempt to start the engine from a location other than that indicated for the
operator. Exhaust gases can kill, if it is necessary to start the engine in a closed area, provide adequate
ventilation. Never leave the operator's cab with the engine running. Sound the horn before starting the
engine.

13.3. IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE.

Check all gauges for proper readings. Secure the work area visually. Operate all controls, check that they
work properly. Listen for unusual noises. Check engine speed control. Check the indicator lights and all
warning and safety systems. Run the engine for a few minutes at idle to reach its working temperature range.
Record all security defects for immediate correction.

13.4. IN COLD WEATHER.

Consult the manufacturer's operation manual for a correct starting procedure. Slowly operate the controls
until the hydraulic oil is warmed to a correct operating temperature. Extend your engine's idling period before
starting work. Do not store containers of cold weather starting aids or other flammable materials on the
grader. Make sure that these types of materials are away from sources of heat, sparks or flames. Do not
puncture or burn the containers. They could explode.

13.5. BE ALERT WHILE WORKING.

Not read. Do not drink. Do not eat. Pay attention to the work. If you need to pay attention to any other part,
stop the machine. Never allow ground personnel to stand behind you, keep them in areas well visible to the
operator.

13.6. KNOW THE WORKING SCOPE OF THE MOTOR GRADE.

Make sure the accessory or load will not trip over any obstacles when lifting or turning it. Do not turn, lift or
brake with unnecessary speed, accidents may occur. Make sure the area is clear before moving or turning in
any direction. NEVER turn or stop attachment or load over ground crew or truck cab. NEVER allow anyone
on loading equipment, it is extremely dangerous. Never attempt to start or operate the grader from any
location other than the operator's location. Handling it from any other position, such as reaching out from a
door or window, constitutes a serious danger. Do not load a truck until the truck operator is in a safe location
or is not allowed to leave the cab. Do not drop the material from excessive heights.

14. FAULT PROCEDURE

In case of failure of the equipment or a part of it, you must first check the emergency button or the engine
stop indicators, fuel, electrical or oil levels, among others. If any of these events exist, call maintenance.
