WARNING ELEMENTS (continued)
WARNING FORMAT
Warnings are usually displayed in a box to set them apart from other information. The box
consists of two or three panels, specifically:
• The signal word appears in the upper panel of the box.
• The hazard statement, consequence statement, and instruction statement(s) appear in the
lower panel of the box.
• In a warning that uses three panels, the third panel is pictorial, and identifies the hazard or
indicates how to avoid the hazard.
Here is an example of a Superchute
®
warning with three panels:
• If the lifting device is overloaded it could fail and the
chute system could collapse.
• A falling chute system can seriously injure or kill.
• Do NOT overload the lifting device. Use the Forms and
Weight Charts of Section X to calculate the weight of
your chute system.
