8-513   The loader operator will direct or warn haulage vehicles of
                                       rockslide danger or other dangers by hand signal, siren, horn, or
                                       radio.

                                8-514   Do not lift any oversized material that will lift rear tires off the
                                       ground.

                                8-515   When transporting material, keep the loader bucket at minimum
                                       height.

                                8-516   Do not undercut a bank or stockpile. Do not attempt to bring
                                       down excessive oversized material by digging under it.

                                8-517   Do not equip or alter your cab in a manner that impairs operating
                                       visibility or damages the integrity of ROPS (Roll-Over Protection
                                       Structure).

                                8-518   Make sure that cab windows are in good condition and as clean
                                       as possible. Never place any objects or signs on windows of
                                       loaders. Always report crack(s) that obstruct visibility. Have
                                       damages repaired immediately.

                                8-519   Do not work in an area directly under material that is being
                                       dumped, unloaded, or removed by a dragline/haul
                                       truck/dozer/loader.

                                8-520   Do not use loader buckets to lift, lower or transport personnel, or
                                       as a work platform. Do not use loaders as a crane.

                                8-521   Loader operators are responsible for maintaining berms on
                                       stockpiles, ramps and haul roads as well as barricading inactive
                                       areas in the pit.

                                AERIAL LIFTS/TELEHANDLERS/CRANES (8-600)

                                8-600   Do not load a crane beyond its safety capacity as indicated on
                                       the crane's load chart.
