Important Safety Information
For your safety, thoroughly read Important Safety
Information in the operator’s manuals before proceed-
ing.
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 fol-
lows it. In addition to design and configuration of equip-
ment, 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 hazard seri-
ousness.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury. This signal word is limited to the most extreme sit-
uations, typically for machine components that, for func-
tional 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 situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe prac-
tices.
