UNDERSTAND SIGNAL WORDS
On machine safety signs, signal words designating the
degree or level of hazard - DANGER, WARNING, or
CAUTION - are used with the safety alert symbol.
DANGER
indicates an imminently hazardous situa-
tion which, if not avoided, will result in death or seri-
ous injury.
WARNING
indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
CAUTION
indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
DANGER or WARNING safety signs
are located
near specific hazards. General precautions are listed
on
CAUTION safety signs
.
Some safety signs dont use any of the designated
signal words above after the safety alert symbol are
occasionally used on this machine.
To avoid confusing machine protection with personal
safety messages, a signal word
IMPORTANT
indicates
a situation which, if not avoided, could result in damage
to the machine.
NOTE
indicates an additional explanation for an
element of information.
