speed moving parts.

Can cause death, serious injury or property damage.

See safety instruction contained herein. 

Restrict use to qualified 

personnel. 

The use of unauthorized parts in the repair of the equipment 
or tampering by unqualified personnel will result in dangerous 
conditions that can cause death, serious injury or property 
damage.
