About this manual

Safety precautions

Comply with all safety precautions indicated in this document and
in your machine tool builder's documentation!

Precautionary statements warn of hazards in handling software
and devices and provide information on their prevention. They are
classified by hazard severity and divided into the following groups:

DANGER

Danger

 indicates hazards for persons. If you do not follow the

avoidance instructions, the hazard will 

result in death or severe

injury.

WARNING

Warning

 indicates hazards for persons. If you do not follow the

avoidance instructions, the hazard 

could result in death or

serious injury.

CAUTION

Caution

 indicates hazards for persons. If you do not follow the

avoidance instructions, the hazard 

could result in minor or

moderate injury.

NOTICE

Notice

 indicates danger to material or data. If you do not follow

the avoidance instructions, the hazard 

could result in things

other than personal injury, like property damage

.

Sequence of information in precautionary statements

All precautionary statements comprise the following four sections:

Signal word indicating the hazard severity

Type and source of hazard

Consequences of ignoring the hazard, e.g.: "There is danger of
collision during subsequent machining operations"

Escape – Hazard prevention measures
