SUMMARY OF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR LIFTING

DANGER!
Unsafe use of the excavator while making rated lifts could cause serious, potentially fatal
injuries or extensive damage to the machine or nearby property. Do not let anyone operate the
machine unless theyve been properly trained and understand the information in the Operation
and Maintenance Manual.
To lift safely, the following items must be evaluated by the operator and the work site crew.
Condition of ground support.
Excavator configuration and attachments.
Weight, lifting height and lifting radius.
Safe rigging of the load.
Proper handling of the suspended load.
Tag lines on opposite sides of the load can be very helpful in keeping a suspended load secure, if they are
anchored safely to control points on the ground.
WARNING!
NEVER wrap a tag line around your hands or body.
NEVER rely on tag lines or make rated lifts when wind gusts are more than 48.3 km/h (30 MPH).
Be prepared for any type of wind gust when working with loads that have a large surface area.
WARNING!
If you need more information or have any questions or concerns about safe operating
procedures or working the excavator correctly in a particular application or in the specific
conditions of your individual operating environment, please consult your local Daewoo
representative.
UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS
Any modification made without authorization or written approval from Daewoo can create a safety hazard,
for which the machine owner must be held responsible.
For safetys sake, replace all OEM parts with the correct authorized or genuine Daewoo part. For example,
not taking the time to replace fasteners, bolts or nuts with the correct replacement parts could lead to a
condition in which the safety of critical assemblies is dangerously compromised.

WORK SITE PRECAUTIONS

ATTACHMENT PRECAUTIONS
Options kits are available through your dealer. Contact Daewoo for information on available one-way
(single-acting) and two-way (double-acting) piping/valving/auxiliary control kits. Because Daewoo cannot
anticipate, identify or test all of the attachments that owners may wish to install on their machines, please
contact Daewoo for authorization and approval of attachments, and their compatibility with options kits.
AVOID HIGH VOLTAGE CABLES
Serious injury or death can result from contact
or proximity to high voltage electric lines. The
bucket does not have to make physical contact
with power lines for current to be transmitted.
Use a spotter and hand signals to stay away

from power lines not clearly visible to the
operator.
Voltage
Minimum Safe Distance
6.6 kV
3 m (9 10")
33.0 kV
4 m (13 1")

154.0 kV
8 m (26 3")
275.0 kV
10 m (32 10")
HKB1012L
Figure 2
Use these minimum distances as a guideline only. Depending upon the voltage in the line and atmospheric
conditions, strong current shocks can occur with the boom or bucket as far away as 4 - 6 m (13 - 20 ft) from
the power line. Very high voltage and rainy weather could further decrease that safety margin.
NOTE:
Before starting any type of operation near power lines (either above ground or buried
cable type), you should always contact the power utility directly and work out a safety plan
with them.
BEFORE STARTING TO DIG, CONTACT

AUTHORITIES
Below ground hazards also include natural gas
lines, water mains, tunnels and buried
foundations. Know whats underneath the work
site before starting to dig.

BE AWARE OF HEIGHT OBSTACLES
Any type of object in the vicinity of the boom
could represent a potential hazard, or cause the
operator to react suddenly and cause an
accident. Use a spotter or signal person working
near bridges, phone lines, work site scaffolds, or
other obstructions.
USE CARE ON LOOSE SUPPORT
Working heavy loads over loose, soft ground or
uneven, broken terrain can cause dangerous
side load conditions and possible tipover and
injury. Travel without a load or balanced load
may also be hazardous.
HKA1010L
Figure 4
If temperatures are changing, be cautious of dark and wet patches when working or traveling over frozen
ground. Stay away from ditches, overhangs and all other weak support surfaces. Halt work and install
support mats or blocking if work is required in an area of poor track support.
USE SOLID SUPPORT BLOCKING
Never rely on lift jacks or other inadequate supports when work is being done. Block tracks fore and aft to
prevent any movement.
OVERHANGS ARE DANGEROUS
Digging the work face under an overhang the
work area beneath a cliff or under the edge of a
ditch is dangerous. Know the height and reach
limits of the excavator and plan ahead while
working. Avoid creating dangerous situations by
moving around the work site while making
excavations. Go onto another digging area
before steep overhangs are formed. Working
around deep pits or along high walls or
trenching may require support blocks, especially
after heavy rainfalls or during spring thaws. Park
the excavator away from overhangs before work
shut down.

SLOPING TERRAIN REQUIRES CAUTION
Dig evenly around the work site whenever
possible, trying to gradually level any existing
slope. If its not possible to level the area or
avoid working on a slope, reducing the size and
cycling rate of the workload is recommended.
On sloping surfaces, use caution when

positioning the excavator before starting a work
cycle. Stay alert for unstable situations to avoid
getting into them. For example, you should
always avoid working the bucket over downhill
crawler tracks when parked perpendicular to the
slope. Slow all downhill swing movements and
avoid full extensions of the bucket in a downhill
direction. Lifting the bucket too high, too close to
the machine, while the excavator is turned uphill
can also be hazardous.
Raise bucket when encountering

small obstacles.
Keep bucket 20 - 30 cm (8 - 12") off

ground when driving on slopes.
If machine slips, lower bucket to

ground and stop immediately.
When traveling on level ground, bring

front attachment in and raise bucket
40 - 50 cm (15 - 20") with teeth facing
up.

STAY ALERT FOR PEOPLE MOVING
THROUGH THE WORK AREA
When loading a truck you should always know
where the driver is.
Avoid loading over the cab of a truck even if the
driver is in a safe spot. Someone else could
have gone inside, for any number of reasons.
Avoid working where unseen passersby might
be.
Slow down the work cycle and use slower travel
speeds in congested or populated areas. Use a
commonly understood signal so that other
members of the work crew can warn the
operator to slow or halt work in an impending
hazard situation.
HAOA170L
Figure 7
Check for hazards in the work area before

starting and moving.
Use horn or other signal to warn

others when you start and move the
machine.
Use a signal man whenever the

operators vision is obstructed in any
way. Make sure the signal man is in
sight of the operator at all times.
Agree on signals before operation.
Keep bystanders and obstacles out

of work area.
Keep work areas well lighted at night.
BE AWARE OF AND CONFORM TO LOCAL REGULATIONS

Minimum levels of insurance coverage, work permits or certification, physical barriers around the work site
or restricted hours of operation may be mandated by governing authorities. There may also be guidelines,
standards or restrictions on equipment that may be used to perform certain kinds of work. Check and
follow all local requirements, which may also be related to below ground hazards and power lines.

OPERATION
OPERATE WHILE SEATED AT THE
OPERATORS STATION ONLY
Never reach in through a window to work a
control. Do not try to operate the excavator
unless youre in the command position stay alert
and focused on your work at all times but Do not
twist out of the seat if job activity behind you (or
to the side) requires your attention.
Use a spotter or signal person if you cant see
clearly and something is happening behind you.
Replace damaged safety labels and lost or
damaged owners manuals.
HAOA150L
Figure 8
Do not let anyone operate the machine unless

theyve been fully and completely trained, in
safety and in operation of the machine.
ADJUST SEAT
If the drivers seat is not adjusted correctly, the operator may become easily fatigued and injury and/or
damage could result.
Be sure to adjust the drivers seat at the beginning of each work period.
Adjust drivers seat so that the operator can easily reach the pedals while his back is firmly
against the lumbar support of the seat.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE

Do a "prestart" safety check:
Walk around your machine before getting in the operators cab. Look for evidence of leaking
fluid, loose fasteners, misaligned assemblies or any other indications of possible equipment
hazard.
All equipment covers and machinery safety guards must be in place, to protect against injury
while the machine is being operated.
Look around the work site area for potential hazards, or people or property that could be at risk
while operation is in progress.
NEVER start the engine if there is any indication that maintenance or service work is in
progress, or if a warning tag is attached to controls in the cab.
A machine that has not been used recently, or is being operated in extremely cold temperatures,
could require a warm-up or maintenance service before start-up.
Check gauges and monitor displays for normal operation before starting the engine. Listen for
unusual noises and remain alert for other potentially hazardous conditions at the start of the
work cycle.

NEVER USE ETHER STARTING AIDS
An electric grid type manifold heater is used for
cold starting. The glowing heater element can
cause ether or other starting fluid to detonate,
causing injury.
Figure 9
MOUNTING AND DISMOUNTING
NEVER get on or off a moving machine. Do not
jump on/off. The entry/egress path should be
clear of mud, oil and spills and mounting
hardware must be kept tight and secure.
Always use handholds, steps or track shoes and
maintain at least 3-point contact of hands and
feet. Never use controls as handholds.
NEVER get up from the operators seat or leave
the operators station and dismount the machine
if the engine is running.
Figure 10
OBSERVE GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Only trained and authorized personnel, with a good knowledge and awareness of safe procedures, may be
allowed to operate or perform maintenance or service on the excavator.
All personnel at the work site should be aware of assigned individual responsibilities and tasks.
Communication and hand signals used should be understood by everyone.
Terrain and soil conditions at the work site, approaching traffic, weather related hazards and any above or
below ground obstacles or hazards should be observed and monitored by all work crew members.
ENGINE VENTILATION
Engine exhaust gases can cause fatal
accidents, and unconsciousness, loss of
alertness, judgement and motor control and
serious injury.
Make sure of adequate ventilation before
starting the engine in any enclosed area.
You should also be aware of open windows,
doors or ductwork into which exhaust may be
carried, or blown by the wind, exposing others to
danger.

TAKE TIME TO PROVIDE GOOD VISIBILITY

Halt work if visibility is poor. Strong rains, snow, fog and extremely dusty conditions can all obscure visibility
so badly that it is best to wait for weather to change or dust to settle before continuing operation.
Night work in areas of limited visibility should be halted if installation of extra work lights on the machine (or
work area) is necessary.
Keep dirt and dust off of windows and off the lens surfaces of work lights. Stop working if lights, windows or
mirrors need cleaning or adjustment.
NEVER CARRY PEOPLE IN OR ON THE
MACHINE
Never transport other persons in or on the

FUEL, OIL AND HYDRAULIC FLUID FIRE
HAZARDS
Add fuel, oil, antifreeze and hydraulic fluid to the
machine only in a well ventilated area. The
machine must be parked with controls, lights
and switches turned off. The engine must be off
and any flames, glowing embers, auxiliary
heating units or spark causing equipment must
be doused, turned off and/or kept well clear of
the machine.
Static electricity can produce dangerous sparks
at the fuel filling nozzle. In very cold, dry
weather or other conditions that could produce
static discharge, keep the tip of the fuel nozzle
in constant contact with the neck of the fuel
filling nozzle, to provide a ground.
HAOA120L

BOOST STARTING OR CHARGING ENGINE
BATTERIES
Turn off all electrical equipment before
connecting leads to the battery. This includes
electrical switches on the battery charger or
boost starting equipment.
When boost starting from another machine or
vehicle do not allow the two machines to touch.
Wear safety glasses or goggles while required
parallel battery connections positive to
positive and negative to negative are made.
HAOA310L

TRAVEL CONTROLS MAY PRODUCE REVERSED OPERATIONS
Before starting the machine you should always check to see which end of the track frame is under the
operators cab. In the normal travel configuration, track frame travel motors are at the rear of the machine,
under the engine and counterweight. If the operator swings the cab 180, travel motors will be underneath
the operators cab, toward the front of the track frame and operating travel will be reversed.
When traveling the excavator always keep lights on; make sure that you are in compliance with all state
and local regulations concerning warning flags and signs and keep the operators cab positioned over the
idler end of the track frame. That will keep travel controls in their intended configuration and at the same
time, maintain the proper orientation of lights on the machine and posted flags and signs.
KEEP "PINCH POINT" AREAS CLEAR - USE
CAUTION IN REVERSE AND SWING
Use a signal person in high traffic areas and
whenever the operators view is not clear, such
as when traveling in reverse. Make sure that no
one comes inside the swing radius of the
machine.
Anyone standing near the track frames, or
working assemblies of the attachment, is at risk
of being caught between moving parts of the
machine.
Never allow anyone to ride on any part of the
machine or attachment, including any part of the
turntable or operators cab.
HAOA190L
Figure 16
TRAVEL PRECAUTIONS
Attachment control levers should not be operated while traveling.
Do not change selected travel mode (FAST/SLOW) while traveling.
Fold in work equipment so that the outer end of the boom is as close to the machine as possible, and is
203 mm 304 mm (8" 12") above ground.
Never travel over obstacles or slopes that will cause the machine to tilt severely. Travel around any slope or
obstacle that causes 10 degrees tilt, or more.
OPERATE CAREFULLY ON SNOW AND ICE AND IN VERY COLD TEMPERATURES
In icy cold weather avoid sudden travel movements and stay away from even very slight slopes. The
machine could skid off to one side very easily.
Snow accumulation could hide or obscure potential hazards. Use care while operating or while using the
machine to clear snow.
Warming up the engine for a short period may be necessary, to avoid operating with sluggish or reduced
working capacity. The jolting shocks and impact loads caused by bumping or bottoming the boom or
attachment are more likely to cause severe stress in very cold temperatures. Reducing work cycle rate and
work load may be necessary.

PARKING MACHINE
Avoid making sudden stops, or parking the
machine wherever it happens to be at the end of
the work day. Plan ahead so that the excavator
will be on firm, level ground away from traffic
and away from high walls, cliff edges and any
area of potential water accumulation or runoff. If
parking on inclines is unavoidable, block the
crawler tracks to prevent movement. Lower the
bucket or other working attachment completely
to the ground, or to an overnight support saddle.
There should be no possibility of unintended or
accidental movement.
SHUTDOWN CONTROL FUNCTIONS
After the machine has been lowered to the
overnight storage position and all switches and
operating controls are in the "OFF" position, the
control stand lock lever must be engaged.
Release the left console to disable all pilot
circuit control functions.
Insert the swing lock pin and engage all brakes
and lock-down security equipment that may
have been installed on the machine.
HKA1004L

INSTALL ADDITIONAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT
IF CONDITIONS REQUIRE
When working with a breaker or in some shear work applications, a front guard over the windshield may be
required. The windshield guard may or may not be OPS/certified, depending upon the specific application
and working situation.
Laminate glass protection for the front, side or rear windows may also be recommended depending upon
particular site conditions.
Contact your Daewoo distributor for available safety guards and/or recommendations if there is any danger
of getting hit by objects that could strike the operators cab. Make sure that all other work site crew
members are kept well away from the excavator and safe from potential hazards.
MOVEMENT ALARMS
If the excavator is equipped with an audible travel movement alarm or visible swing movement alarm
(strobe light), test the alarm on a daily basis. The audible alarm should sound as soon as the travel system
is engaged. The strobe light should begin to flash as soon as the swing system is engaged.

KEEP A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AT HAND

It is recommended that an appropriately sized
(2.27 kg [5 lb.] or larger) multipurpose "A/B/C"
fire extinguisher be mounted in the cab. Check
and service the fire extinguisher at regular
intervals and make sure that all work site crew
members are adequately trained in its use.
MAINTAIN STANDARD SAFETY EQUIPMENT
IN GOOD CONDITION
Machinery guards and body panel covers must
be in place at all times. Keep well clear of
rotating parts. Pinch point hazards such as
cooling fan and alternator drive belts could catch
hair, jewelry or oversize or very loose clothing.

SAFETY - CRITICAL PARTS MUST BE REPLACED PERIODICALLY
Replace the following fire related components as soon as they begin to show any sign of wear, or at regular
periodic intervals, whether or not deterioration is visible:
Fuel system flexible hoses, the tank overflow drain hose and the fuel fill cap.
Hydraulic system hoses, especially the pump outlet lines and front and rear pump branch
hoses.
Keep mounting brackets and hose and cable routing straps tight. Hose routing should have
gradual bends.
HYDRAULIC CYLINDER SEALS REQUIRE PERIODIC REPLACEMENT

Check cylinder drift rate at regular intervals. Maximum allowable rates are included in the Specification
section in the Excavator Shop Manual. Overhaul seal kits are available through Daewoo.
HIGH-PRESSURE HYDRAULIC LINES CAN STORE A GREAT DEAL OF ENERGY
Exposed hydraulic hoses on the arm or boom could react with explosive force if struck by a falling rock,
overhead obstacle or other work site hazard. Extra safety guards may be required. NEVER allow hoses to
be hit, bent or interfered with during operation.
THE OPERATORS CAB AND TURNTABLE DECK SHOULD BE KEPT CLEAN
Cleaning off accumulations of grease and dirt helps extend equipment service life. Cleaning also provides
an opportunity to inspect equipment. Minor damage can be repaired or corrected before major problems
result.
Keep the cab floor and consoles free of tools and personal items.
CLOTHING AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
ITEMS
Contain long hair, and avoid loose clothing and
jewelry. They can catch on controls or in
protruding parts and cause serious injury or
death.
Do not wear oily clothes. They are highly
flammable.
Full eye protection, a hard hat, safety shoes and
gloves may be required at the work site.
While working on the machine, never use
inadequate tools. They could break or slip,
causing injury, or they may not adequately
perform intended functions.

DO NOT WORK ON HOT ENGINES OR HOT COOLING OR HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
Wait for the engine to cool off after normal operation. Park the excavator on firm, level ground and lower all
equipment before shutting down and switching off controls. When engine lube oil, gearbox lubricant or
other fluids require change, wait for fluid temperatures to decrease to a moderate level before removing
drain plugs.
NOTE:
Oil will drain more quickly and completely if it is warm. Do not drain fluids at 95C (203F)
temperatures but do not allow full cool down.
COOL DOWN IS REQUIRED BEFORE

RADIATOR OR RESERVOIR CHECKS
Shut down engine and allow heat to dissipate
before performing service on the engine radiator
or hydraulic fluid reservoir. Both assemblies
have air vent levers at or near the fill cap for

PRECAUTIONS WITH HIGH-PRESSURE LINE, TUBES AND HOSES
When inspecting or replacing high-pressure piping or hoses, check that the pressure has been released
from the circuit. Failure to release the pressure may lead to serious injury. Always do the following;
Wear protective glasses and leather gloves.
Fluid leaks from hydraulic hoses or pressurized components can be difficult to see but
pressurized oil has enough force to pierce the skin and cause serious injury. Always use a piece
of wood or cardboard to check for suspected hydraulic leaks. Never use your hands or expose
your fingers.
Do not bend high-pressure lines. Do not strike high-pressure lines. Do not install lines, tubes or
hoses that are bent or damaged.
Make sure that all clamps, guards and heat shields are installed correctly to prevent vibration,
rubbing against other parts, and excessive heat during operation.
If any of the following conditions are found, replace the part.
Damage or leakage from hose end.
Wear, damage, cutting of covering, or exposure of strengthening wire layer.
Cover portion is swollen in places.
There is twisting or crushing at movable parts of hose.
Foreign material is embedded in the covering.
Hose end is deformed.
NOTE:
Refer to Hose In-service Lifetime Limit (European Standard ISO 8331 and EN982 CEN)
on page 4-41, for additional European regulations.

EXCAVATOR RATED LIFT CAPACITY TABLES

WARNING!
All rated lift capacities are based on the machine and the load both remaining level at all times.
DO NOT EXCEED THE RATED LIFT CAPACITY. Lifting loads greater than those shown in the
rated capacity tables can cause catastrophic equipment failure and/or structural collapse of the
machine.
To operate safely the excavator should be on a firm, level and uniformly supporting surface. The operator is
expected to make due allowance for all specific work site and lift related conditions, and respond to
changes in those conditions that could pose a hazard. The following could all cause hazardous conditions
and accidents or injuries:
Soft or uneven ground
Unlevel terrain
Side loads
Modifications or poor maintenance of the excavator
Failure to lift squarely over the end or over the side of the machine
When a load is in the air, the operator must remain alert.
Avoid side loads that may be caused by uneven slings, traveling with the load or swinging too
quickly.
The load can become unbalanced if the hook line is twisted and starts to rotate. If the surface
area of the load is large enough, wind gusts can create side loads.
Keep the bucket hook point directly over the load. Tag lines on opposite sides of the load can
help maintain greater stability against side loads and wind gusts.
Avoid traveling with a suspended load. Before swinging (or if required, traveling), bring the load in to an arm
position (radius and height) that has a safer weight capacity rating and adequate movement clearance.
The operator and all work site personnel should be thoroughly familiar with safety instructions and
procedures within this Operation and Maintenance Manual.
WARNING!
Lower the dozer blade to the ground to unload the chassis frame from weight of blade. By no
way lift the chassis frame with the dozer blade which is not designed to increase the stability
when performing a lifting task.

SAFETY LEVER
WARNING!
When stopping engine or leaving the operator's seat, first, the left arm rest on the seat fully pull
up, "LOCK" the safety lever, otherwise, a serious accident may occur by accidental movement of
work levers (joysticks).
Whenever leaving the operators seat make sure the engine is shut down and the safety lever is
"LOCKED."
Be careful not to move the work levers (joysticks) when raising up or pushing down the safety lever.
The safety lever (Figure 27) is designed to lock the front working control levers so that even if the working
control levers are moved unintentionally, they will not work. However, the safety lever does not control the
travel levers and boom swing pedal.
1.
Pull safety lever (Figure 27) up to allow

left-hand control console to raise into the
"LOCKED" position. Make sure that the
safety lever is "LOCKED" into the raised
(up) position. When safety lever (Figure
27) is in the "LOCKED" position, front
attachment movement will be disabled
even though a lever is moved.
NOTE:
Lower bucket (front attachment)

TRAVEL
WARNING!
1.
Before operating the travel levers, make sure that you know in which direction the machine
is pointing. Look at the end of the track assemblies. If the drive motors are visible and the
blade is at the rear while sitting in the operator's seat, you are looking at the back end of the
track assembly (therefore, you are looking backwards). In this case, the response of the
travel levers will be the reverse of normal operation.
2.
Before moving, make sure that there are no personnel in the way or on the machine. Sound
the horn to alert workers that you are about to move the machine.
3.
Be sure the path is clear during travel.
4.
Use extreme caution when reversing travel. Be sure there is a clear path behind the
machine.
5.
Make sure to operate the travel control levers smoothly to avoid sudden starts or stops.
6.
Before leaving the operator's seat make sure to lock out all control systems and shut down
the engine to avoid accidental activation.

HANDLE RUBBER CRAWLER TRACKS
CAREFULLY
IMPORTANT
As the rubber crawler is pliable on its
section areas, it is inferior to steel crawler
in stability. Especially, use care when you
operate your machine sideways.
The tracks are designed to prevent damage to
road surfaces. They can be damaged if the
following precautions are not followed:
Figure 71
Operation 3-31
cl
assi
cmachi
ner
y
.
net
1.
Do not travel or turn while crossing over

sharp, raised objects that may crack or
damage track.
2.
Never use rubber crawler tracks over

rough stone material. This can cause
damage to the tracks and to other parts of
the track system such as track links,
rollers, etc. Never use rubber crawler
tracks to travel on sand. It will damage the
track system.
3.
Excessive foreign material in the track will

increase crawler tension and may cause
damage.
4.
Avoid making sudden turns on surfaces

that have high friction.
5.
Remove fuel or hydraulic oil from tracks

immediately.
6.
Avoid salt water and salt air as much as

possible. Salt corrodes the steel core of
the tracks.
7.
When crawlers are not in use for an

extended period of time, store them out of
direct exposure to sunlight and rain.
8.
Avoid operating on road surfaces with a

temperature higher than 60C (140F).
This may damage the tracks or the road
surface.
9.
Avoid traveling on one crawler when the

other crawler and the front are jacked up.
This can cause abrasion and damage.
10.
Traveling with loose crawlers can cause

the track to come off or be damaged.
11.
Important:Rubber crawlers are pliable

while steel crawlers are not. This requires
extra care, especially when operating with
the upper body at right angles to the track.

Always wear gloves when handling a chain or wire rope.
When towing excavator use a wire rope or chain capable of handling the load.
Attach chain or wire rope to track frame as shown in Figure 81.
Do not use the light towing holes in the ends of the blade for towing the machine: damage will
result.
Insert protective material such as pieces of wood between track frame and wire rope to prevent
the wire rope from being damage.
If it is impossible for the machine to escape from
the mud on its own tracks, connect a wire rope
between the machine and another machine as

SELECTION OF HYDRAULIC BREAKER
If a hydraulic breaker is installed, consider equipments stability and suitability for such modification. Also
consider hydraulic oil pressure and quantity. When selecting a hydraulic breaker consult with a DAEWOO
distributor or sales agency.
HYDRAULIC HOSES AND TUBING FOR BREAKER
1.
When installing hydraulic breaker, assemble according to drawings provided with kit.
2.
If breaker is taken off excavator, be sure to plug and cap all hoses and tubing to prevent
contamination from entering hydraulic system.
3.
Plug and cap all connectors and fittings on breaker to prevent contamination.
4.
Check all hydraulic connections for signs of leaks or loose components before starting operation.

OPERATING TECHNIQUES
LIFTING
IMPORTANT
There may be local or government regulations, about the use of excavators for the lifting of
heavy loads. Always contact your local and government agencies in regards to these
regulations.
To prevent injury, do not exceed the rated load capacity of the machine. If the machine is not on level
ground, load capacities will vary.
Short slings will prevent excessive load swing.
Use the lifting eye on the bucket that is provided to lift objects.
Always try to maintain the lifting eye (Figure 95)
straight below the center line of the arm and
bucket pin. In this manner the weight of the load
is being primarily held only by the pin, and not
by the bucket cylinder, link, and link pins.
When a lifting eye is used, the sling/lifting device
must be fastened to the eye in a manner that will
not allow it to come loose.
The most stable position is over the corner of
the machine.
For best stability, carry a load as close to the
ground and machine as possible.

Lift capacity decreases as the distance from the

machine swing center line is increased.

Lifting Unknown Weight
When loads are not accurately
known are to be lifted, the person
responsible for the job shall
ascertain that the weight of the
load does not exceed the machine
LOAD RATING CHART at the
radius at which it is to be lifted.
FRONT LIFT
ZONE
It is recommended that you feel

your way into any lift as a
precaution against tip-over. One
method is to position the boom at
90 over the side of the machine.
Slowly lift the load until it clears the
ground. A lift over the side is the
most unstable, and as the load is
swung into the front zone of the
excavator it will become more
stable. DO NOT INCREASE
SWING RADIUS AFTER THE
LOAD IS LIFTED.

DANGER!
If a load is picked up from the front zone and swung into the side zone, a tip-over could result
causing a deadly or fatal injury.
Lifting Known Weight
The load chart is the governing factor when lifting known weights. It is recommended that you feel your way
into any lift as a precaution against tip-over. When ever possible, lift and swing payloads between the front
idler area.
Pick and Carry
The machine has the ability to pick and carry payloads without added labor. We recommend when traveling
with a suspended payload, you evaluate the prevailing conditions and determine the safety precautions
required in each case. The following factors must be considered before attempting to pick and carry a load.
Align the boom with the forward direction of machine travel. Maintain this boom position when turning the
machine. Turn only when necessary, at the slowest speed, and at a wide turning radius.
1.
Use the shortest lifting radius distance possible.
2.
Keep the load as close to the ground as conditions will permit.
3.
Provide tag lines to prevent load from pendulating. Pendulating can cause a change in radius. A
change in radius could exceed the load chart rating or cause a tip-over condition.
4.
Govern travel speed to suit conditions.
5.
Avoid sudden starts and stops.

OPERATION UNDER UNUSUAL CONDITIONS

NOTE:
See Maintenance in Special Conditions on page 4-52 for other recommendations.
OPERATION IN EXTREME COLD

If machine is to be operated in extreme cold weather temperatures, certain precautions must be taken to
assure continued normal operation. The following paragraphs detail checks to be made to be certain the
machine is capable of operating at these temperatures.
1.
Check the cooling system for correct antifreeze solution for lowest temperature expected. Carefully
inspect cooling system and correct or report any leaks.
2.
Keep batteries fully charged to prevent freezing. If water is added to batteries, run engine at least one
hour to mix electrolyte solution.
3.
Keep engine in best possible mechanical condition to assure easy starting and good performance
during adverse weather conditions.
4.
Use engine oil of the proper specifications for the expected temperatures. Refer to the "Lubrication
Specifications" of the engine manual for details.
5.
Keep fuel tank full at all times. Drain condensation from tank before and after operation. Drain and
service fuel filter. To eliminate clogging of fuel filters due to wax crystal formation in the fuel, be sure
that the fuel used has a cloud point specification below the lowest expected temperature.
6.
Lubricate entire machine according to "Periodic Service Table and Chart" Section 4, in this manual or
lubrication chart on machine.
7.
Start engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature before applying load.
A.
If mud and ice collects and freezes on any of the moving parts while machine is idle, apply heat
to thaw the frozen material before attempting to operate machine.
B.
Operate hydraulic units with care until they have reached a temperature to enable them to
operate normally.
C.
Check all machine controls and/or functions to be sure they are operating correctly.
8.
An extra outer air filter should be kept in the operators cab to replace element that could become iced
and cause restricted air flow to engine.
9.
If cold weather starting aid must be used, see "Engine Starting" COLD WEATHER START portion of
this manual.
10.
Clean off all mud, snow and ice to prevent freezing. Cover machine with tarpaulin if possible, keep
ends of tarpaulin from freezing to ground.

OPERATION IN EXTREME HEAT
Continuous operation of the machine in high temperatures may cause the machine to overheat. Monitor
engine and transmission temperatures and stop machine for a cooling-off period whenever necessary.
1.
2.
Make frequent inspections and services of the fan and radiator. Check coolant level in radiator. Check
grills and radiator fins for accumulation of dust, sand and insects which could block the cooling
passages.
A.
Formation of scale and rust in cooling system occurs more rapidly in extremely high
temperatures. Change antifreeze each year to keep corrosion inhibitor at full strength.
B.
If necessary, flush cooling system periodically to keep passage clear. Avoid use of water with a
high alkali content which increases scale and rust formation.
Check level of battery electrolyte daily. Keep electrolyte above plates preventing damage to batteries.
Use a slightly weaker electrolyte solution in hot climates. Dilute 1.280 specific gravity electrolyte as
issued to 1.200 to 1.240 specific gravity readings at full charge. Recharge batteries whenever they
reach a 1.160 specific gravity reading. Batteries self-discharge at a higher rate if left standing for long
periods at high temperatures. If machine is to stand for several days, remove batteries and store in a
cool place.
WARNING!
Do not store acid type storage batteries near stacks of tires; the acid fumes have a harmful
affect on rubber.
3.
Service fuel system as directed in "Engine Fuel System" Section 5, of this manual. Check for water
content before filling fuel tank. High temperatures and cooling off cause condensation in storage
drums.
4.
Lubricate as specified in "Periodic Service Chart and Table" Section 4, in this manual or Lubrication
Decal on the machine.
5.
Do not park machine in sun for long periods of time. When practical park machine under cover to
protect it from sun, dirt and dust.
A.
Cover inactive machine with tarpaulin if no suitable shelter is available. Protect engine
compartment, transmission and hydraulics from entrance of dust.
B.
In hot, damp, climates corrosive action will occur on all parts of the machine and will be
accelerated during the rainy season. Rust and paint blisters will appear on metal surfaces and
fungus growth on other surfaces.
C.
Protect all unfinished, exposed surfaces with a film of preservative lubricating oil. Protect cables
and terminals with ignition insulation compound. Apply paint or suitable rust preventive to
damaged surfaces to protect them from rust and corrosion.

OPERATION IN DUSTY OR SANDY AREAS
Operation of the machine can cause dust in almost any area. However, when in predominantly dusty or
sandy areas, additional precautions must be taken.
1.
Keep cooling system fins and cooling areas clean. Blow out with compressed air, if possible, as often
as necessary.
WARNING!
Wear goggles when using compressed air.
2.
Use care when servicing fuel system to prevent dust and sand from entering the tank.
3.
Service the air cleaner at frequent intervals, check air restriction indicator daily and keep dust cup
and dust valve clean. Prevent dust and sand from entering engine parts and compartments as much
as possible.
4.
Lubricate and perform services outlined on current lubrication chart on machine and "Lubrication
Chart and Table" Section 4. Clean all lubrication fittings before applying lubricant. Sand mixed with
lubricant becomes very abrasive and speeds wear on parts.
5.
Protect machine from dust and sand as much as possible. Park machine under cover or protect with
tarpaulin to keep dust and sand from damaging unit.
OPERATION IN RAINY OR HUMID CONDITIONS

Operation under rainy conditions is similar to that as in extreme heat procedures listed previously.
1.
Keep all exposed surfaces coated with preservative lubricating oil. Pay particular attention to
damaged or unpainted surfaces. Cover all paint cracks and chip marks as soon as possible to prevent
corrosive effects.
OPERATION IN SALT WATER AREAS

The corrosive effect of salt water and salt water spray is very extensive. When operating in salt water
areas, observe the following precautions.
1.
When exposed to salt water, dry machine thoroughly and rinse with fresh water as soon as possible.
2.
Keep all exposed surfaces coated with preservative lubricating oil. Pay particular attention to
damaged paint surfaces.
3.
Keep all painted surfaces in good repair.
4.
Lubricate machine as prescribed on lubrication chart on machine or "Periodic Service Table and
Chart" Section 4, in this manual. Shorten lubricating intervals for parts subject to exposure to salt
water, if found to be necessary.
OPERATION AT HIGH ALTITUDES

Normally, operation of machine at high altitudes will be as outlined in extreme cold. Before operating at
high altitudes, engine fuel and air mixture may have to be adjusted according to appropriate engine
manual.
1.
Check engine operating temperature for evidence of overheating. The pressure cap on radiator must

BUCKET SHIMMING PROCEDURES

New Bucket Installation
1.
If a new bucket is being installed on the excavator, measure the inside dimension between the bucket
ears and the outside dimension across the arm mounting boss.
2.
Subtract the clearance on both sides from the difference of the two and shim accordingly, before
assembly.
WARNING!
To check end play (side-to-side) clearance at bucket attachment point, the bucket must be free to
move but at all other times lower it to the ground or use support blocks to immobilize this
assembly. Shut off engine and tag and lock out controls to prevent movement during this
procedure.

Shimming Procedures for Installed Bucket
1.
With bucket attached, curl bucket and arm outward and lower boom so that bucket teeth are pointing
away from excavator, just a few inches off ground. This position provides easy accessibility for
dimensional measurements.
2.
Force bucket to one side and check for end

play (side-to-side) clearance under O-rings
at attachment point. Clearance should be
between 0.2 - 0.7 mm (0.0078 - 0.0275 in)
on each end of arm boss, between side
face of boss and inside edge of ear
bushing. Too tight a fit can cause
excessive wear while too much clearance
may produce excessive noise and
potentially hazardous slack control.
3.
Recheck end play by forcing bucket

towards opposite side and repeating
clearance measurements.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
NOTE:
Never disassemble electrical or electronic parts. Consult with a DAEWOO distributor or

sales agency before servicing.
BATTERY
WARNING!
Before starting any battery service work, make sure to shut the engine off and turn the starter
switch to the "OFF" position.
The batteries create hydrogen gas. An explosion hazard exists, particularly with a deeply
discharged battery. Make sure that open flames, burning objects or sparks are kept away from
the battery compartment.
Battery electrolyte is diluted sulfuric acid. Take extreme caution when handling the batteries.
The electrolyte can cause severe chemical burns. If any electrolyte gets on your clothing or skin,
wash it off immediately with large quantities of water. If the electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush
them immediately with a large quantity of water and contact a doctor at once.
When installing a battery, wear safety glasses at all times.
When removing a battery, remove the Negative (-) or ground terminal first, and then the Positive
(+) terminal. This will prevent sparks or arcing that could cause an explosion. When installing a
battery, connect the Positive terminal first and then the Negative terminal. Make sure to fully
tighten the terminal clamps.
1.
In colder weather a greater drain is placed on the batteries when they are used for the preheat cycle
and when starting a cold engine. Battery performance decreases as the temperature gets lower.
2.
In extremely cold weather, remove the batteries at night and move them to a warm location. This will
help to keep them at a higher power level.
3.
Inspection of battery electrolyte level.

NOTE:
4.
The battery installed at the

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM

GENERAL
Keeping an engines cooling system in peak operating condition, can have many benefits to keeping a
machine in good operating condition. A properly functioning cooling system will; improve fuel efficiency,
reduce engine wear, and extend component life.
Always use distilled water in the radiator. Contaminants in tap water neutralize the corrosion inhibitor
components. If tap water must be used, it should not exceed 300 ppm hardness, or contain more than 100
ppm of either chloride or sulfate. Water that has been treated with a water softener also contains salt that
will cause corrosion of components. Water from creeks and stagnant pools usually contains dirt, minerals
and/or organic material that are deposited in the cooling system and impair cooling efficiency. Distilled
water is the best.
Engine overheating is often caused by bent or clogged radiator fins. The spaces between the fins can be
cleaned by use of air or water under pressure. When straightening bent fins, use care not to damage the
tubes or break the bond between the fins and the tubes.
WARNING!
Pressure at air nozzle must not exceed 30 PSI (2.1 kg/cm2). Always wear goggles when using
compressed air.
Do not pour cold water into radiator when engine is very hot and water level is below the top of
the tubes. Such action could result in damage to engine cylinder heads.
Heavy duty diesel engines require a balanced mixture of water and antifreeze. Drain and replace the
mixture every year or 2,000 hours of operation, which ever comes first. This will eliminate buildup of
harmful chemicals.
Antifreeze is essential in any climate. It broadens the operating temperature range by lowering the
coolants freezing point and by raising its boiling point. Do not use more than 50% antifreeze in the mixture
unless additional freeze protection is required. Never use more than 68% antifreeze under any condition.
Types of Antifreeze
There are two main classifications of antifreeze available on the market today.
1.
Ethylene Glycol - Standard Life Antifreeze
2.
Propylene Glycol - Extended Life Antifreeze
Ethylene glycol (standard life antifreeze) has been on the market for many years. Its chemical properties
do not provide the improved corrosion resistance that propylene glycol (extended life antifreeze) does.
Ethylene glycol is also very hazardous to the environment, people and animals. Daewoo recommends that
ethylene glycol be replaced with propylene glycol.
The newer propylene glycol antifreeze comes in many different colors. Some of the colors are pink, red,
orange and yellow. There are even some that come in a blue-green color. The blue-green color makes it
very difficult to tell the difference of what type of antifreeze is in a cooling system. The colors are only a dye
added to the clear antifreeze. Do not rely on color. Keep careful machine records of what brand and type of
antifreeze is used in the unit. If you are unsure of what type of antifreeze is in the system, drain and flush
the system.

TRACK TENSION
WARNING!
Safely measuring track tension requires two people. One person must be in the operator's seat,
running the controls to keep one side frame in the air, while the other person makes dimensional
checks. Take all necessary precautions to make sure the machine wont move or shift position
during service. Warm up the engine to prevent stalls, travel the excavator to an area that
provides level, uniform ground support and/or use support blocks when necessary.
The track adjusting mechanism is under very high-pressure. NEVER release pressure too
suddenly. The grease cylinder valve should never be backed off more than 1 complete turn from
the fully tightened down position. Bleed off pressure slowly and keep your body away from the
valve at all times.
Track shoe link pins and bushings wear with normal usage, reducing track tension. Periodic adjustment is
necessary to compensate for wear and it may also be required by working conditions.
1.
Track tension is checked by jacking up one

side of the excavator. See Figure 82. Place
blocking under frame while taking
measurement.
HBOH811L
Figure 82
2.
Measure clearance between track roller

and track contact surfaces. Clearance
should be approximately 10 - 15 mm (0.39
- 0.59 in).
NOTE:
This measurement can be

thrown off if there is too much
mud or dirt or other material in
the track assembly. Clean off
the tracks before checking
clearance.

WARNING!
The track adjusting mechanism is under very high-pressure. NEVER release pressure too
suddenly. The grease cylinder valve should never be backed off more than 1 complete turn from
the fully tightened down position. Bleed off pressure slowly and keep your body away from the
valve at all times.
4.
Track tension adjustments are made

through the grease fitting (1, Figure 86) in
the middle of each side frame. Adding
grease increases the length of an
adjustment cylinder (2, Figure 86). The
longer the adjustment cylinder, the greater
the pressure on the tension spring pushing
the track idler sprocket outward.
5.
If there isnt enough slack or clearance in

the tracks and the adjustment is too tight,
the idler sprocket and adjusting cylinder
can be retracted by bleeding off grease
thru hole in valve (3, Figure 86).

has been rebuilt, damage to piston packing and seals may occur. Always vent air from cylinders
at low idle and at a slow speed.
1.
Run engine at low idle. Extend and retract each cylinder to within 100 mm (4 in) of fully stroking it 4 5 times.
2.
Operate fully extend and retract each cylinder 3 - 4 times.
3.
Repeat procedure until cylinders extend and retract smoothly.
SWING MOTOR
IMPORTANT
If the air is not vented from the system, it will cause damage to the swing motor and bearings.
NOTE:
Perform this only when oil has been drained from swing motor.

5TRANSPORTATION
Obey all local, state or federal regulations for the transportation of the excavator. If unsure of regulations
check with local authorities.
Check the intended route for road width, overhead clearances, weight restrictions, and traffic control
regulations. Special approval or permits may be required.
LOADING AND UNLOADING

DANGER!
Daewoo warns any user, that the removal
of the counterweight from the machine,
front attachment or any other part, may
affect the stability of the machine. This
could cause unexpected movement,
resulting in death or serious injuries.
Daewoo is not liable for any misuse.
Never remove the counterweight or front
attachment unless the upper structure is
in-line with the lower structure.
Never rotate the upper structure once the

counterweight or front attachment has
been removed.

WARNING!
When transporting the machine, know the width, height, length and weight.
Loading or unloading the machine can be a dangerous operation. Make sure to run the engine at
the lowest speed setting, and travel at the slowest speed possible.
Make sure that the ramp being used can handle the weight of the machine. If required, add
blocking under the ramp for additional support.
Make sure that the ramp surface is free of grease or mud that could cause the machine to slip or
slide.
Make sure that the trailer is parked on firm, level ground before attempting to load/unload the
excavator.
If it is required to turn the machine while it is on the trailer, make sure to do this at the slowest
engine and travel speeds possible.
Make sure that the swing lock pin is inserted before transporting to prevent the machine from
accidental swinging.
Make sure to secure the excavator onto the trailer as required by local transportation laws.
LOADING
1.
Make sure that the truck is parked on a

firm and level surface. See Figure 1.
2.
Chock truck wheels so that truck cannot

move during loading or unloading.
3.
Make sure that the ramps that are being

used are designed to handle the weight of
the excavator. If required, add blocking
under the ramp to provide additional
support.
4.
The ramp angle should be less than or not

exceeding a 15 angle. Ramps steeper
than this may cause a problem when
loading or unloading.
5.
Load machine at slowest possible travel

speed and engine rpm.
6.
When loading or unloading, be careful not

to hit blade. Fully raise blade and position
it to rear. Use bucket to prevent tracks from
tipping suddenly as machine moves onto
bed of transport vehicle.

UNLOADING
WARNING!
90 ~110
When unloading machine, be careful of

the point where the back end of the truck
bed meets the loading ramp: the machine
will tilt as it crosses this point.
1.
When moving on transport vehicle bed,

keep arm at an angle of 90 - 110 to
boom and move slowly. (Keeping arm
retracted could cause damage to
machine.)
