SAFETY
AVOID ACCIDENTS
Most accidents, whether they occur in industry, on the farm, at home, or on the
highway, are caused by the failure of some individual to follow simple and
fundamental safety rules or precautions. For this reason, most accidents can be
prevented by recognizing the real cause and doing something about it before the
accident occurs.
Regardless of the care used in the design and construction of any type of
equipment, there are many conditions that cannot be completely safeguarded
against without interfering with reasonable accessibility and efficient operation.
A CAREFUL OPERATOR IS THE BEST INSURANCE AGAINST AN
ACCIDENT. THE COMPLETE OBSERVANCE OF ONE SIMPLE RULE
WOULD PREVENT MANY THOUSAND SERIOUS INJURIES EACH
YEAR. THAT RULE IS:
NEVER ATTEMPT TO CLEAN, OIL OR ADJUST A
MACHINE WHILE IT IS IN MOTION
