Directives
When we give directions for using the equipment, we
capitalize key words. These words are usually a command
followed by a result.
For example, “MOVE the body raise switch to LOWER ...”.
Use of Bold and CAPITAL Letters
We also put some words in BOLD AND CAPS for
emphasis, usually related to safety or something of other
importance, such as “
MAKE SURE you close the side
doors”.
We put some words in just bold for emphasis, such as “All

must be performed by …”.
Each DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION notice
precedes its applicable text.
