Pinch Point Hazard! Keep clear of moving parts. Be sure to stay clear of the positioner during
operation. Moving parts can crush and cut resulting in serious injury.
Crush Hazard! Do not stand directly beneath the positioner or payload. Be certain payload is
properly installed and secured. In locations or areas where the risk of injury occurs, or any part
of the assembly may become detached or fall for any reason, a strong safety chain or wire
hawser should be attached between the equipment and the mounting surface. At all times,
normal safety precautions must be employed. Death or serious injury could result if positioner
fails suddenly.
Safety Equipment! Helmets or hard hats, eye protection, gloves, and safety shoes or combat
boots must be properly worn while working in the deployment area. Death or serious injury
could result if proper safety equipment is not properly worn.
Trained Personnel Only! Installation, operation, and maintenance to be performed by trained
and authorized personnel only. Death or serious injury could result if proper installation,
inspection, operation, and maintenance procedures are not observed.
Lifting Hazard! Manually lifting over 55 lb. (25kg) is prohibited. In the UK, all lifting equipment
must be thoroughly examined annually by a competent person according to the Lifting
Operations and Lift Equipment Regulations 1998. Equivalent regulations exist in other EU
states.
Safety Instruction – Remote Control! The equipment is subject to remote control and may be
operated at any time. Persons working on the equipment should take appropriate precautions to
ensure that any unexpected movement does not occur as this could lead to injury.
Safety Instruction – Impact Loading! Utilize a safety tether to secure the payload in the event
of impact loading. The tether should connect to the positioner mounting pedestal or other rigid
structure. Death or serious injury could result if proper precautions are not performed.

qualified and work to national and local standards and codes of practice.
