Section 1 — Safety

General

Observing basic safety rules and precautions can eliminate accidents
when operating, maintaining, and repairing the forklift. The Operator’s
Manual contains detailed information regarding safety practices when
driving and operating the forklift. Always be alert to potential hazardous
situations that could result in injury to yourself or bystanders. Care should
also be taken to avoid damage to the equipment. Maintenance should
always be done by trained personnel using proper tools.

Caution, Warning, and Danger

Hazards are identified by the “Safety Alert Symbol” and followed by a
signal word: Caution, Warning, or Danger.

CAUTION: Means that a situation COULD be hazardous and MAY result

in personal injury if not avoided. CAUTION is also used to
alert against unsafe practices that could result in equipment
damage.

WARNING: Means that a situation COULD be hazardous and MAY result

in serious injury or death if not avoided.

DANGER: Means that a situation IS HAZARDOUS and WILL result in

serious injury or death if not avoided.
