[DIG-DOG]

loaderis a kind of earthwork construction machinery widely used in highway, railway, construction, hydropower, port, mine and other construction projects, it is mainly used for shoveling soil, sand, lime, coal and other loose materials, but also for ore, hard soil and other light shoveling and digging operations. The mine loaderis used in the mine, in order to prevent the mine loader brake failure, resulting in personnel injury and equipment damage, the following is a small series to share with you about the provisions to be followed by the mine loader driver.

In the face of sudden brake failure of the vehicle, the driver of the mining loadershould deal with it calmly, use the available conditions such as terrain as much as possible to slow down, and drive the vehicle to a flat place to stop immediately.

When the mining loaderfails to brake when going uphill, it should be reduced to the low speed in time to keep enough power to drive up the top of the slope to stop. If you need to stop halfway, you should keep the forward low gear, pull the hand brake, if there is a backward slip phenomenon, the rear of the car should face the coal wall, rock wall or safety side, and turn on the headlights and emergency lights to attract the attention of the rear vehicle.

When the downhill brake fails and the vehicle's own mechanism cannot be used to control the speed, or the appropriate object cannot be found to reduce the speed, the driver should decisively use the rigid parts such as the side of the car to move closer to the coal wall or rock wall without cables or water pipes, to increase the resistance by friction and collision, so as to achieve the purpose of forced stopping and escape, and reduce the accident loss as much as possible.
Improve the management of mine loader, and strictly require drivers to operate in accordance with the operating procedures and auxiliary transportation management methods.
Mining loaderare strictly prohibited from speeding.

Strengthen transportation safety education and training, carefully study accident cases, learn lessons from accidents, and sum up experience.

Predictive braking is carried out during operation, and the driver should step on the brake before going downhill on the vehicle regardless of whether there is any situation. You can check brake performance and gain time to control speed if you find brake failure.

When running on downhill sections, walk in low gear.

The driver of the mining loadershould maintain the brake system of the vehicle on time to prevent the vehicle from brake failure due to brake oil, aging of the oil pipe, and serious wear of the brake pads.
