This exposed the employee to tip over hazards. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard is to for the employer to consult with the skid steer manufacturer and acquire an operator's manual to use when training his equipment operators on the limitations, capacities, and safe operation of the attachments and skid steer according to the manufacturer, prior to employees operating the equipment.
