The safety Alert symbol identifies important safety messages on the DT1 and in

DANGER:
Indicates an imminently
hazardous situation that, If not

serious injury. This signal word is
to be limited to the most extreme
situations typically for machine
components which, for functional
purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING:

situation that, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious
injury, and includes hazards that
are exposed when guards are
removed. It may also be used to
alert against unsafe practices.

result minor or moderate injury. It
may also be used to alert against
unsafe practices.
