carefully read and understand all of
these before operating the machine.
The safety alert symbol precedes

hurt you or others, as well as cause
product or property damage.
The following pictorial is found on the

This safety message means that you
could be seriously hurt or killed if you

intended purpose of binding paper and
covers according to the indicated
specifications.
