4. SAFETY
4.1 GENERAL SAFETY
All mechanical equipment can be hazardous if operated without due care or correct
maintenance. Most accidents involving machine operation and maintenance are
caused by failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often
be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident
occurs.
Because it is impossible to anticipate every possible circumstance that might
involve a potential hazard, the warnings in this guide and on the machine are not all
inclusive. If a procedure, tool, working method or operating technique not
specifically recommended by manufacturer is used, you must satisfy yourself that
it is safe for you and others. You should also ensure that the product will not be
damaged or made unsafe by the method of operation or maintenance procedures you
choose.
Safety is not just a matter of responding to the warnings. All the time you are
working with your attachment you must pay attention to what hazards there might
be and how to avoid them. Do not work with the product until you are sure that you
control it. Do not start any job until you are sure that you and those around you will
be safe.
Warning! Read the following warning messages carefully. They tell you of
different hazards and how to avoid them. If proper precautions are not taken
you or others could be seriously injured.
