Important Safety Information
Look for Safety Symbol
The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is
a potential hazard to personal safety involved
and extra safety precaution must be taken.
When you see this symbol, be alert and carefully
read the message that follows it. In addition to
design and configuration of equipment, hazard
control and accident prevention are dependent
upon the awareness, concern, prudence and
proper training of personnel involved in the
operation, transport, maintenance and storage of
equipment.
Be Aware of Signal Words
Signal words designate a degree or level of haz-
ard seriousness.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous sit-
uation which, if not avoided, will result in death
or serious injury. This signal word is limited to
the most extreme situations, typically for
machine components that, for functional
purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury, and includes hazards
that are exposed when guards are removed. It
may also be used to alert against unsafe
practices.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situ-
ation which, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.
