Important Safety Information

For your safety, thoroughly read Important Safety Infor-
mation
in the operator’s manuals before proceeding.

Look for Safety Symbol

The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is a poten-
tial 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 per-
sonnel 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 situations,
typically for machine components that, for functional pur-
poses, 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.
