WHAT HAPPENED

Case 921E Wheeled Loaders

ANY SITE CURRENTLY USING ONE OF THE ABOVE MACHINES SHOULD CHECK FOR THE FOLLOWING

A Joint Venture site has recently purchased a brand new Case 921E Wheeled Loader. It has been found that the guard covering the large cooling fan is made so that it can be swung open to allow cleaning of the radiator matrix. The guard is secured by a simple rubber latch and can easily be opened with the fan running.

LEARNING POINTS / ACTIONS TAKEN

If you have any Case machines on your site you should check if the guards are secured correctly. If they are similar to this example you should take immediate action to reduce the risk and seek advice from your supplier about having the guard suitably modified. All guarding should be securely fixed in such a way that a tool is required to remove them.
