injury to the operator or to bystanders.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury to the operator or to bystanders.

injury to the operator or to bystanders.
Safety messages contain three different type styles.
Normal type states the hazard.
•
Bold type states how to avoid the hazard.
•
Italic type states the possible consequences of not avoiding the hazard.
•
An icon, when present, gives a graphical description of the potential hazard.
Example:

• Block drive wheels before performing a test with engine running.
A moving vehicle can cause injury.
