1 Safety 1.1 Signal Words Three signal words, DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION, are used to alert you to hazardous situations. The appropriate signal word for each situation has been selected using the following guidelines: DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Page 10: General Safety
SAFETY 1.2 General Safety CAUTION The following are general farm safety precautions that should be part of your operating procedure for all types of machinery. Protect yourself. • When assembling, operating, and servicing machinery, wear all the protective clothing and personal safety devices that could be necessary for the job at hand.
Page 11 SAFETY • Wear close-ﬁtting clothing and cover long hair. Never wear dangling items such as scarves or bracelets. • Keep all shields in place. Never alter or remove safety equipment. Make sure driveline guards can rotate independently of the shaft and can telescope freely. •...
