CG958G Wheel Loader. Manual - part 10

- 44 - 

 Irrelevant people are not allowed to enter into work area. Because the work device moves 

vertically, rotates sideways and moves forward and backward, the surrounding areas of the 

work device (underneath, in front, at rear, inside, at two sides) are dangerous and is not 

allowed to be entered into.     

 When working near cliffs or at places where collapes may happen, must ensure safety and 

appoint people to command.     

 When releasing earth or rocks from lofty places, take care of the safety at the falling places.     

6.3 Ensure Ventilation When Working in Enclosed Space 

 

When it is not avoidable to operate or handle fuel, or clean parts or paint at an enclosed 

place or a place not well-ventilated, must open doors and windows to ensure sufficient 

ventilation in prevention of gas poisoning. If ventilation is still insufficient by opening 

doors and windows, install fans.   

 

When working at enclosed spaces, fire extinguishers shall be prepared. Remembe their 

locations and operation method.   

6.4 Do not Approach High Voltage Cable 

 

Do not allow the machine contact with suspended cables. Electric shock may be caused 

even if approaching to high voltage cables.     

 

Follow these instructions in prevention of accidents: 

1．  When there is a danger of contacting electric cables by the machine at site, consult 

power company before operation starts to make sure whether the operation is safe. 

Consult power company for the voltage of cable before the operation starts.   

2． 

Wear rubber shoes and rubber gloves. Put a rubber pad on the operator’s seat. Take care 

not to let any exposed part of body contact with the metal chassis.   

3． 

If the work device contacts cable, the operator shall not leave the cab.   

4． 

When working near high voltage cable, nobody is allowed to approach the machine.

 Safe parking

Ⅶ

 

7.1 Pay Attention to Safety of Yourself and Others

 

 Choose a lot as flat as possible to park the machine. Lower the work device down to ground.   

 

  Do not park on slopes. When it is not avoidable to park on a slope, the degree of slope must 

be lower than 1/5 and wedges shall be put under the wheels to prevent the machine from 

moving.  

 When the vehicle breaks or it is needed to park it at a place where the traffic is busy, set up 

an enclosure, signal, flag or alarm light, or set up other necessary signals to ensure the vehicles 

passing by are able to identify this machine clearly. And do not let the machine, enclosure, or 

flag obstruct traffic.   

 When parking, unload the materials in the loader, lower down the bucket completely to the 

ground, turn off the engine, and engage the parking brake at the parking position. Lock all 

devices with the key and take off the key.     

 It is prohibited to climb up the vehicle when it is transporting.   

7.2 Notices for Cold Regions

 

 After completing work, remove water, snow or silt that clings to wires, plugs and sockets, 

swithes or sensors, or the cover parts of these parts, If not removing these stuff, the water 

contained in them will freeze and cause failure of machine when starting the machine next time. 

Unexpected malfunction may be inflicted.     

 Preheat thoroughly. If the machine is not preheated thoroughly before operating, the 

reaction of machine be slow, which may cause unexpected accidents.   

 Operate the control levers to cycle the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic system (raise system 

pressure to set pressure, then release the pressure to allow the oil flow back to hydraulic oil 

tank), which will raise the temperature of hydraulic oil. This will guarantee good response of 

the machine and prevent failures.   

 

  If the electrolyte in storage battery has frozen, neither charge the storage battery nor start 

engine by other power supplies.This could be dangerous and cause thestorage battery to catch 

fire.  ●When charging or start engineer by other power supplies, melt the electrolyte in storage 

battery before starting and check whether there is any leakage.

 Safety inspection and maintenance

Ⅷ

 

8.1 General Knowledge

 

 

The operating and maintenance personnel shall receive trainings and obtain 

corresponsive qualifications; the people who are irrelevant to the maintenance and repair 

work being conducted are not allowed to enter into work area. Appoint people to watch 

over when necessary.   

 

The repair of vehicles shall be conducted in compliance to specified procedures. When 

not knowing how to conduct, seek assistance from Chengdu Construction Machinery Co., 

Ltd.  

 

Observe the cautions indicated by warnings label. Lables concerning especially 

important issues are attatched on the vehicle; follow these instructions.   

 

Before starting maintenance work, adhere labels marked with “please do not operate” 

or other similar labels on starting swithes and console. Prevent others 

from starting engine or manipulate control levers. Injuries or death to 

operator may be caused otherwise.   

 

When operating or maintaining the machine, shall not wear loose 

clothes or jewels, or else they may get entangled on the control lever or 

other parts of the machine.   

 

Ensure all protective boards and covers are fixed on the machine.   

 

Fuel and engine oil are harzard items. Fuel, engine oil, lubricant and oil cloth shall not 

contact any fire or flame.   

 

The parts removed from the machine shall be stored in a safe place. Make sure that the 

parts will not fall off. Set up baluster surrouding the place and hang lables of “forbidden to 

enter” in prevention of approach by unapproved people.   

 

The work site shall be kept clean and tidy, without cast oil cloth, lubricant, etc., to 

prevent occurrence of fire or falling off of people.   

 

Before inspecting and repairing the machine, fix the front and rear frames with lock 

rod to avoil injuried caused by their rotation.   

 

When it is necessary to conduct inspection and maitenance work with the movable arm 

bucket being lifted, must use necessary movable arm oil cylinder support device to prevent 

- 47 - 

falling of the work device and place all control levers at middle position. Lock the neutral 

shift lock switch to avoid mis-operation.     

 

Part the machine on horizontal ground and place the gearshift control lever at neutral 

position. Place the hydraulic control lever at maintaining position, turn off engine, and turn 

the key to “0” position, take away the key and engage parking brake.   

 

Unapproved people are not allowed to be on the machine.   

 

Put the accessories in order, such as lunch pail, tools or other accessories irrelevant to 

the machine.   

 

Understand the hand signals and who commands at sight. Only receive signal from one 

person.  

8.2 Working in Enclosed Places 

   The waste gas exhausted from engine may inflict sickness and even death. When it is 

unavoidable to start engine at a enclosed place, use venting device to discharge the waste gas in 

the area. Open doors for ventilation when no venting device is available.   

8.3 Working underneath the Machine 

 Park the machine on solid flat ground. Lower down the work device to ground before 

starting to maintain or repair underneath the machine.   

 Keep the tyres in place by wedges.   

 If letting the tyres off the ground and supporting only with the work device, it is very 

dangerous to work underneath the machine.   

 Never work underneath the machine which is not properly supported.   

 When inspection and repair can only be conducted with the work device being lifted, install 

oil cylinder safety stand on the piston rod of the moveable arm.   

Method of using the protective frame: 

      Hang the safety stand for the lifting arm at rear frame when not using it.   

   When using it, take off the safety stand, lift the movable arm until the safety stand 

completely lock in the pistion of movable arm cylinder, install bolts and nuts.   

8.4 Working at top of the Machine 

 When maintaining at top of the machine, ensure the standing point is clean and free of
