Safety Recommendations

Follow these guidelines to ensure general safety:

•

Keep the chassis area clear and dust-free during and after installation.

•

Put the removed chassis cover in a safe place.

•

Keep tools away from walk areas where you and others could fall over them.

•

Do not wear loose clothing that could get caught in the chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf
and roll up your sleeves.
