working on the machine. If there is any "DANGER! Do NOT
operate!" warning tag displayed, it means that someone is carrying
out inspection and maintenance of the machine. If the warning
sign is ignored and the machine is operated, there is danger that
the person carrying out inspection or maintenance may be caught
in the rotating parts or moving parts and suffer serious personal
injury or death. Do not start the engine or do not touch the levers.
If necessary, put up signs around the machine also.
