Accidents
can be prevented
with your help
No
accident-prevention program can be
suc-
cessful without the wholehearted
co-operation
of
the person
who
is
directly responsible
for
the
operation
of
equipment.
To read
accident
reports
from
all
over the
country
is
to
be
convinced
that
a large
number
of
accidents
can be
prevented
only
by
the
operator
anticipating
the result before the
accident
is
caused and
doing something about
it.
No
power-driven equipment, whether
it
be
transportation or processing, whether
it
be on
the
highwav,
in the harvest
field
or
in
the
industrial plant,
can be
safer
than the
man who
is
at
the
controls.
If
accidents are
to
be
pre-
vented
—
and
they
can be
prevented
—
it
will
be
done by
the operators
who
accept a
full
measure
of their responsibility.
It is
true
that the designer, the manufacturer,
the safety
engineer can
help;
and
they
will
help,
but
their
combined
efforts
can be wiped
out
by
a single careless act
of
the operator.
It is
said
that '
'the
best kind
of a safety
device
is
a careful
operator.
"
We
ask you
to
be
that
kind
of
an
operator.
