CHAPTER 2
Safety
This chapter contains a comprehensive list of safety pre-
cautions that must be followed to ensure safe operation
of the equipment. These precautions must be read and
understood by everyone operating and maintaining the
equipment—before they start working with the equip-
ment. Note that OSHA and state safety agency rules
must be complied with in addition to those given in this
chapter and elsewhere in this manual. Applicable plant
general safety precautions must also be followed.
Safety precautions
Flow designed your high-pressure waterjet cutting
system and related equipment with safety in mind.
Throughout the manual, safety precautions and warnings
for specific operations are highlighted. Safety precau-
tions are also posted on the equipment. The operator
and service personnel shall pay particular attention to
these precautions at all times.
Operators of a high-pressure waterjet cutting system
must treat the system as they would treat any high-
speed cutting tool. Although the waterjet may appear
harmless, it is a high-energy cutting tool capable of cut-
ting many non-metallic materials such as composites,
plastics, and wood products. Misuse of this equipment
or carelessness in its application can be extremely haz-
ardous to operating personnel. Always treat the waterjet
cutting system with respect.
Warnings, cautions, and notes
Service procedures in the waterjet manuals include
safety warnings, cautions, and notes that must be read,
understood, and adhered to. These are specific catego-
ries of safety notices, and are defined as follows:
WARNING
Highlights an operating condition or service
procedure that can result in death or
serious injury to personnel.
CAUTION
Highlights an operating condition or service
procedure that can lead to impaired system
operation or equipment damage.
Note:
Highlights an operating condition or service pro-
cedure that is considered essential for efficient operation
and service.
