Safety Introduction
As with the operation of all machinery, safe operation of the LA-763 is a major concern
of ABM International, Inc. The purpose of this section is to inform personnel of the safe
and prudent operation of an LA-763.
We have attempted to recommend the most effective methods and calculations to warn
against actions that could result in personal injury, or make equipment unsafe. It is
important to understand that ABM cannot anticipate, or list all conceivable safety
methods and warn of all the possible hazards. In the interest of promoting safety, ABM
advises that the operating personnel should always make sure that personal safety and the
safe operation of the machine will not be adversely affected by their actions.
It is imperative that the operating personnel of the LA-763 read and understand the
information in this manual before operating the machine.

Safety Policy Statement
The conservation of the assets of any company, which include the buildings, equipment,
supplies and inventories as well as personnel, must be and is the responsibility of all
levels of management. The purpose of a personnel and property conservation program is
to insure that all phases of management recognize that personnel and property
conservation are both inseparable parts of a company’s objective…to produce quality
products at the lowest possible cost.
Safety of personnel in every aspect must be of first consideration. The implementation of
a conservation program will eliminate human suffering and effectively lower the direct
and indirect costs resulting from employee injury. It will substantially reduce the
exposure and probability of damage and / or loss of company’s physical assets.
