SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to
provide safe equipment can be erased by an operator’s single careless act. In addition, hazard control
and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgment, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.
Make certain that the operator(s), prior to operating is instructed in safe and proper use and reviews and
understands the manual(s) pertaining to this machine.
Read this manual before you operate this machine. If you do not understand any part of this manual, or
need more information, contact the manufacturer or your authorized dealer.
