2-4 Safety Considerations

The terms NOTICE, CAUTION, WARNING, and DANGER
have specific meanings in this manual. See Section 9

for a

complete list of specific safety warning information.

A NOTICE is used to indicate a statement of company policy
directly or indirectly related to the safety of personnel or protection
of property.

A CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

A WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided could result in death or serious injury.

A DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This word will
be limited to the most serious situation(s).

The term IMPORTANT emphasizes areas where equipment
damage could result, or provides additional information to make a
step or procedure easier to understand. Disregarding information
marked IMPORTANT would not be likely to cause personal
injury.

REPORTING A SAFETY DEFECT

NOTE: If you believe that your equipment has a defect which could cause

injury, you should immediately discontinue its use and inform
AEC, Inc., at our address listed in this manual.

The principle factors which can result in injury are:

1.

Failure to follow proper operating and clean-out procedures,
i.e. lockout/tagout.

2.

Failure to maintain a clean and safe working environment.
