Chapter 3 Preparation Jobsite Preparation A successful job begins before working. The first step in planning is reviewing information already available about the job and jobsite. Reviewing the Job Plan Review the blueprints or other plans. Check for information about existing or planned structures, elevations, or proposed work that may be taking place at the same time.
Identifying Hazards (continued) – Light poles – Sunken ground • Traffic • Access • Soil type and condition • Loose material such as fencing or cable Locating Utilities 1. Notify One-Call Services; mark the proposed path with white paint and have the underground utilities located before working.
Classifying the Jobsite (continued) Classified Jobsite Precautions Electric Precautions • Expose the line by careful hand digging or soft excavation. • Have the service shut down while work is in progress. • Have the electrical company test the lines before returning them to service. Natural Gas Precautions Position equipment upwind from the gas lines and use one or more of these methods: •...
• Use equipment carefully. Stop operation and investigate anything that does not look or feel right. Equipment Preparation Preparation checklists are available at www.Toro.com.

Before Operation Safety (continued) – To help prevent trailer sway, load the trailer so that 10 to 15 percent of the total vehicle weight (equipment plus trailer) is on the tongue. Fuel Safety • Use extra care when handling fuel. It is flammable and its vapors are explosive. Keep heat, flames, sparks, and other ignition sources away.
Page 40
Fuel (continued) Use only clean, fresh diesel fuel or biodiesel fuels. Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used within 180 days to ensure fuel freshness. IMPORTANT Use only ultra-low sulphur diesel fuel. Fuel with higher rates of sulfur degrades the diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), which causes operational problems and shortens the service life of engine components.
Fuel (continued) Filling the Fuel Tank 1. Park the machine on a level surface, shut off the engine, and allow it to cool. 2. Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove it. 3. Add fuel to the fuel tank until the level is just below the bottom of the filler neck. Note: This space in the tank allows fuel to expand.

– Lower the attachments. – Shut off the engine and remove the key. • Use only Toro-approved attachments and accessories. Attachments can change the stability and the operating characteristics of the machine. • Stop the attachment when you are not working.
Page 43
During Operation Safety (continued) • Most electric strikes are not noticeable, but indications of a strike include: – Power outage – Smoke – Explosion – Popping noises – Arcing electricity If any of these occur, assume an electric strike has occurred. If you suspect that an electric line is damaged, do not move and take the following actions.
During Operation Safety (continued) • Immediately move the battery disconnect switch (if equipped and accessible) to the DISCONNECT position. • If the fire is small and a fire extinguisher is available, extinguish the fire. • If you cannot extinguish the fire, leave the area as soon as possible and contact emergency personnel.
Slope Safety (continued) • Follow procedures and rules for operating on slopes. These procedures must include surveying the site to determine which slopes are safe for machine operation. Always use common sense and good judgment when performing this survey. • Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the machine loses traction, proceed slowly, straight down the slope.
Adjusting the Roll Bar (continued) WARNING There is no rollover protection when the roll bar is lowered. • Lower the roll bar only when absolutely necessary for hauling or parking. • Do not wear the seat belt when the roll bar is lowered. •...

Page 54
Drill (continued) WARNING Underground utilities contact can cause death or serious injury. Locate and verify underground utilities before digging or drilling. To help avoid injury: Only operate the drilling attachment if the bore path is more than 3 m (10 ft) from any underground hazard. IMPORTANT Boring is a 2 person operation.
Page 55
Drill (continued) Backreaming the Hole Sometimes it is necessary to drill a pilot hole first, then enlarge the hole to accommodate larger product. As a general rule, the final hole should be 1.5 times larger than the diameter of the product being installed. The number of passes needed depends on the soil conditions.
After Operation After Operation Safety • Shut off the engine, remove the key, wait for all movement to stop, and allow the machine to cool before adjusting, cleaning, storing, or servicing it. • Do not touch parts that may be hot from operation. Allow them to cool or wear gloves before attempting to maintain, adjust, or service the machine.
