SAFETY ALERT CLASSIFICATIONS
SAFETY ALERT CLASSIFICATIONS
These classifications and the icons defined on the following
pages work together to alert you to situations which could be
harmful to you, jobsite bystanders or your equipment. When you
see these words and icons in the book or on the machine,
carefully read and follow all instructions. YOUR SAFETY IS AT
STAKE.
Watch for the three safety alert levels: DANGER, WARNING and
CAUTION. Learn what each level means.
indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
Watch for two other words: NOTICE and IMPORTANT.
NOTICE can keep you from doing something that might damage
the machine or someone's property. It can also alert you against
unsafe practices.
IMPORTANT can help you do a better job or make your job
easier in some way.
