 These are the SAFETY ALERT SYMBOLS.
• When you see these symbols on your machine or in this
manual, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
• Follow recommended precautions and safe operating
practices.

Understand Signal Words

 On machine safety signs, signal words designating the
degree or level of hazard - DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION
- are used with the safety alert symbol.
• DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
• WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
• CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
• DANGER or WARNING safety signs are located near
specific hazards. General precautions are listed on
CAUTION safety signs.
• Some safety signs do not use any of the designated signal
words above after the safety alert symbol are occasionally
used on this machine.
 To avoid confusing machine protection with personal
safety messages, a signal word IMPORTANT indicates a
situation which, if not avoided, could result in damage to
the machine.
