This General warning symbol points out important 

information that, if not followed, could endanger 

personal safety and/or property.
This Explosion warning symbol points out poten-

tial explosion hazards. 

This Fire warning symbol points out potential fire

electrical shock hazards.

• Improper operation of this equipment such as neglecting its

maintenance or being careless can cause possible injury or

death. Permit only responsible and capable persons to install,

operate, and/or maintain this equipment.

• Potentially lethal voltages and amperages are present in these

machines. Ensure all steps are taken to render the machine

safe before attempting to work on the equipment.

• All hardware covered by this manual have dangerous elec-

trical voltages and can cause fatal electrical shock. Avoid

contact with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc., on the

hardware, if applicable. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards,

grounds, and barriers are in place before operating the equip-

ment. If work must be done around an operating unit, stand

on an insulated dry surface to reduce shock hazard.

• Do not handle any kind of electrical device while standing in

water, while barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet. DAN-

GEROUS ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT.

• If trained personnel must stand on metal or concrete while

installing, servicing, adjusting, or repairing this equipment,

place insulative mats over a dry wooden platform. Work on

the equipment only while standing on such insulative mats.

• The National Electrical Code (NEC), Article 250 requires the

frame of the equipment to be connected to an approved earth 

ground and/or grounding rods. This grounding will help

prevent dangerous electrical shock that might be caused by a

ground fault condition or by static electricity. Never discon-

nect the ground wire.

• Wire gauge sizes of electrical wiring, cables, and cord sets

must be adequate to handle the maximum electrical current
