Work Area
WORK AREA
The work area is defined as the location where the work is being performed with the machine. The work area and
its surroundings include obstacles in the work and traveling areas, and the ground’s load-bearing capacity.
WARNING
Do not move the machine onto a surface or area that has not been approved for the machine.
The machine is heavy and could possibly break through surfaces that are not strong enough
to support the machine. This could cause damage to the machine as well as injury or possibly
death.
Remember the following points:
Those within the work area must wear personal protective equipment.
NOTE: See “Personal Protective Equipment” on page 2-11
The safety of all personnel within the work area is the responsibility of the machine operator.
General Job Safety
Review each of these carefully:
Only trained and authorized personnel shall be allowed to operate and service the equipment.
Keep this manual with your machine at all times for ease of reference and study it to become familiar with
all controls and safety decals before operating this equipment.
It is the responsibility of the owner and / or the operator to replace any safety, warning or caution decals if
they are defaced or removed from the equipment.
Never operate equipment that is unsafe or in poor operating condition.
Always perform a pre-operational check on your equipment before operating it. Never operate a machine
that is in need of repair, damaged or unsafe.
Never use your equipment for tasks it was not designed for; damage to the machine or injury to the
operator and other personnel may result.
Do not use swinging force to compact the ground or break objects.

Do not operate any cylinder at the very end of the stroke.
Do not use the bucket landing force for excavating, digging, breaking, or pile-driving.
4-3
Work Area
SY335 Excavator
Do not use the weight of the machine to excavate hard or rocky ground.
Move gradually, do not move any control lever or pedal to abruptly change the direction of the
machine.
Do not stop the machine suddenly by releasing the lever or pedal while traveling at high speed.
Never leave your equipment running and unattended. Instead, always park the equipment in a stable level
area, lower any work equipment to a safe position, lock the controls to secure the machine prevent
tampering by unauthorized personnel and turn the engine off before exiting the work site even for a
moment.
When leaving the job site, always lower all work equipment to a safe position and secure it properly to
avoid tampering by unauthorized personnel.
Before starting any work operations, travel or maintenance and repair procedures, be sure all personnel are
at a safe distance away from any point on the machine. Never allow anyone to stand near the machine
while in operation or under maintenance or repair. Remember, the larger the equipment, the more restricted
your visibility will be.
If pedestrians are in the area, proceed slowly and sound your horn. Keep in mind, pedestrians have the
right of way; a loaded or smaller machine has the right away over a larger or unloaded machine.
Always study the job site carefully.
The operator of this equipment must be alert, physically fit and free from the influences of alcohol, drugs
or medications that might affect eyesight, hearing, reaction or judgment.
Follow all rules relating to safety as outlined in this manual and by your company. Never get involved in
horseplay.

Work Area
Job Site Safety
Within the job site is the “work area” (where the actual job function is being performed). Within the work area are
“hazard areas”, that is, areas immediately surrounding the machine where personnel may be at risk due to machine
operation or movement.
With the machine operator being responsible for the safe and correct operation of the machine, he/she is
responsible for safety within the hazard zones while the machine is in use. Immediate work stoppage and machine
shutdown by the machine operator is required if unauthorized personnel enter any of the hazard areas.
All hazard areas must be clearly identified, marked and secured to prevent access by unauthorized
personnel and must be visible to the machine operator at all times and under all circumstances. If this is not
possible, a signal person must be assigned to supervise activities within hazard areas. Personnel within a
hazard area must use increased caution and wear suitable personal protective equipment as required.

New Machine Run-In
NEW MACHINE RUN-IN
Your machine has been thoroughly adjusted and tested
before shipment. However, initial operation of the machine
under severe conditions can adversely affect the
performance of the machine or shorten the machine life.
Therefore, Sany recommends that you allow a run-in period
of 100 operating hours for a new machine.
Properly running-in a new machine is crucial for
guaranteeing a long service life of the machine by allowing
time for new cylinder piston rings and other internal engine
Fig. 4-1
parts to wear in properly. Ensure that the machine is in a
normal working condition before proceeding with the
running-in.
Refer to the applicable engine manual for details on running-in the engine.
The following points are not limitations but instead guidelines for familiarization of the machine and development
of good operating habits.
Operate as much as possible in the half to three-quarters throttle or load range.
When performing an engine cold start, keep the engine speed at or near idle until the engine reaches its
normal operating temperature.
Avoid long periods of operation with the engine at idle or continuous maximum horsepower levels.
Avoid sudden starts, movements or stops.
Manage engine power to a point that allows acceleration to governed speed when conditions require more
power.
Monitor the instruments frequently — especially the engine oil and coolant pressures. Shut down the
machine at the first indication of an abnormal reading.
Shift down to a lower speed setting before climbing up a slope to keep the engine speed elevated.
Check all components frequently for proper operation, unusual noises, and excessive heating.
Frequently check all machine operating temperatures. Determine the cause if overheating occurs and
perform adjustments or repairs immediately.
Always let the system cool down at the end of the working day.
Frequently check the bolts and screws for tightness.
After running-in has been completed, have the machine chassis maintenance procedures performed at an
authorized Sany service center.

well-ventilated area or vent the exhaust to the outside. Failure to observe and follow this
warning could result in personal injury or death.
Cold Weather Operation
The following recommendations are for operating Sany excavators in very low (i.e., sub-zero) temperatures.
NOTE: Detailed cold weather starting and operating procedures are covered in the engine manual.
This machine must have appropriate hydraulic oil, lubricants and other auxiliary items required for operation in
sub-zero temperatures. Individual machine functions should be operated to ensure they are sufficiently warmed
prior to performing work. Contact your Sany representative for recommended lubricants and fluids for cold
weather operations.
Operation of machine at full rated capacities in temperatures between 0°F (-18°C) and -40°F(-40°C) or lower
should be accomplished only by competent operators who possess the skill, experience, and dexterity to ensure
smooth operation. Shock loading must be avoided.
The correct grade of oil for the prevailing temperature must be used in the crankcase. Diesel fuel must have a pour
point of 10°F (6°C) less than the lowest expected temperature.

Cold weather operations requires additional precautions:
Do not touch cold metal surfaces that could cause you to freeze to them.
Keep the machine clear of all ice and snow.
Allow sufficient time for the hydraulic oil to warm up.
Park the machine in an area where it will not freeze to the ground.
Engine Start Procedure
CAUTION
Do not spray starting fluid into the air inlet. The spray will contact the heater elements and
could explode causing equipment damage and personal injury.
CAUTION
NEVER attempt to start the machine if it has been locked-out by maintenance personnel or if
the main power disconnect switch is in the OFF position. If in doubt, contact the maintenance
supervisor. Failure to observe and follow this caution may result in equipment damage,
improper equipment operation or personal injury.
Perform the following steps to start the engine:
NOTE: Detailed cold weather starting and operating procedures are covered in the engine manual.

4. Turn the ignition key to START and release it immediately when the engine starts.
NOTE: If the engine fails to start after five attempts, correct the malfunction before attempting further starts.
Immediately check the engine instruments and monitor for any alarm codes after starting. Shut down the engine if
an alarm is displayed on the display screen.(See “Main Menu Functions” on page 3-30)
NOTICE
Never crank the engine for more than 15 seconds. If the engine fails to start after 15 seconds,
stop and allow the starter motor to cool for at least 10 seconds before attempting another
start. Failure to observe and follow this warning could result in equipment damage.
Idle the Engine
Idling the engine unnecessarily for long periods of time wastes fuel and fouls injector nozzles. Unburned fuel
causes carbon formation, oil dilution, formation of lacquer or gummy deposits on the valves, pistons, and rings,
and rapid accumulation of sludge in the engine.
NOTICE
NEVER race the engine during the warm-up period and NEVER operate the engine beyond the
governed speed. Engine bearings, pistons, and valves may be damaged if these precautions
are not taken. Failure to observe and follow this warning could result in equipment damage.
Engine Shutdown
1. Retract the arm and bucket cylinders, lower the boom
front end to rest on the ground
2. Run the engine at idle speed (1000 rpm) for about 5
minutes.
