Handling of alert labels
The alert labels are attached to parts of the K-BINDER501 that are potentially dangerous to operators and
maintenance personnel. There are three types of alert label (DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION) that
are rated according to the level of danger, and instructions are indicated on each label. However, as
standard operation of the K-BINDER501 is unlikely to result in situations rated at the DANGER level,
DANGER labels cannot be seen during normal operation.
Observe the following safety rules when operating or performing maintenance work on the K-
BINDER501.
Do not peel off or tear the alert labels.
When an alert label has peeled off or is dirty, replace it with a new label.
If you need a new alert label, place an order with the place of purchase. It is very dangerous if the alert
label is left in such a condition.
As for the locations of any alert labels to be attached, refer to “Attachment locations of alert labels” on
page x.
Make sure to read and understand the description of danger and avoidance measures related to an area
where an alert label is attached.
