Scope and PurposeThis SAE Standard is intended to be used as a guide for manufactu
5、rers and users ofgeneral purpose industrial machines to provide a reasonable degree of protection for personnel during normaloperation and servicing. This document excludes skid steers which are covered by SAE J1388. Avoidance ofaccidents also depends upon the care exercised by such persons (see SAE
