Important Safety Information
Safety precautions and warnings may be listed in this
manual and applied to the product (supplied by
Australian Diversified Engineering) in the form of safety
signs and labels.
Safety signs and labels may be positioned on specific
parts of the product to draw attention to objects and
situations affecting health and safety. If these hazard
warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death may
occur to you or other persons.
The severity of the consequences of the hazard may
be easily identified by the alert symbol at the top of the
label.
The
DANGER
alert symbol is used to warn of a
hazardous situation that is likely to be life threatening.
Ensure you are aware of situations and locations on
the product displaying this alert symbol.
The
WARNING
alert symbol is used to warn of a
hazardous situation that is not likely to be life
threatening. Ensure you are aware of situations and
locations on the product displaying this alert symbol.
The wording given underneath the
DANGER
or
WARNING
alert symbol will warn of the hazard, the
consequences of the hazard followed by information on
how to prevent the hazardous situation from occurring.
Some signs placed on the product or machine (which
do not contain a safety alert or symbol such as Danger
or Warning) are to indicate that an instruction must be
carried out. The label will contain black text on a white
background. Read and obey the information contained
on these labels.
The
NOTICE
heading may be contained within this
manual and is used to highlight or alert to certain
aspects of the product. Commonly the
NOTICE
heading is used to highlight the weight of an object or
some other form of specific information applicable to
the task to be performed.
Australian Diversified Engineering cannot anticipate all
possible hazards. For instance, some hazards may be
specific to your workplace or the equipment or tool you
employ to complete the task.
Plan the job before proceeding. Planning before
commencement of the job will help identify possible
hazards in the job procedure which can be eliminated
or controlled.
Be aware of unintended movement when assembling
and disassembling components and ensure machines
are isolated in accordance with workplace and supplier
instructions when performing maintenance.
Ensure items are installed properly and are not
damaged during the installation procedure or during
operation of the machine. If damaged or installed
incorrectly the product may not operate and perform as
intended and may be made unsafe as a result. Ensure
all items are repaired or replaced and care is taken
when installing items on the machine.
Operate and maintain the machine in accordance with
procedures specified by the original equipment
manufacturer and information contained within this
manual.
