ABSTRACT:
A guard cover for a construction machine includes first guard cover (12), the first guard cover covering devices to be inspected from both front and upper surface sides of the devices, the first guard cover capable of being opened and closed vertically, and a second guard cover (13) which becomes contiguous to the first guard cover (12) when closed and which covers devices to be subjected to servicing from a side of the devices, the second guard cover capable of being opened and closed in the transverse direction. According to this construction, the first and second guard covers can be opened each independently, so the devices to be subjected to inspection can be inspected by an operator within an opened range of the first guard cover (12) and the devices to be subjected to servicing can be serviced by a serviceman within an opened range of the second guard cover (13). Thus, the object of inspection by the operator and the object of servicing by a serviceman are clearly distinguished from each other, resulting in that both inspecting work and servicing work are greatly improved in their efficiency.
