1 Important safety notes and warnings
The operation of equipment relies on correct handling,
installation and maintenance. Ignoring these essential
requirements can result in harm to individuals,
equipment failure and damage to property. Safety,
as explained in this instruction manual, encompasses
two aspects:
• Personal injury
• Damage to products or property
1.1 Safety notations
Safety notations are important indicators that inform
personnel about potential risks of death, injury or
property damage. These notations are placed prior
to the step where the particular condition is relevant.
There are three levels of hazard notations,
accompanied by a single safety notice. They are
as follows:
Danger indicates a hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
Warning indicates a hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
Caution indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in minor
or moderate injury.
Notice is used when there is a danger that can
lead to equipment damage only.
