Every year accidents in the work place maim, kill, and injure people. Although it
may be impossible to prevent all accidents, with the right combination of training,
operating practices, safety devices, and operator vigilance, the number of accidents
can be significantly reduced. The purpose of this section is to educate equipment
users about hazards, unsafe practices, and recommended hazard avoidance
techniques.
It is very important that operators and maintenance personnel understand the words
and symbols that are used to communicate safety information. Safety words, their
meaning and format, have been standardized for U.S. manufacturers and published
by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The European Community
(E.C.) has adopted a different format based on the International Standards
Organization (I.S.O.) and applicable machinery directives. Both formats are
presented below. Graphic symbols are not standardized, but most manufacturers
will use some variation of the ones seen in this manual.
