SAFETY SIGNAL WORDS
Note the use of the signal words DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION with the safety messages.
The appropriate signal word for each has been selected using the following guidelines:
DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death
or severe injury. This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme situations typically for machine
components which, for functional purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in
death or severe injury and includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. It may also be
used to alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
Safety of the operator is one of the main concerns in designing and developing a new piece of equipment. De-
signers and manufacturers build in as many safety features as possible. However, every year numerous
accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds of thought and a more careful approach to
handling equipment. You, the operator, can avoid accidents by observing the following precautions in this
section. To avoid personal injury, study the following precautions and insist those working with you, or for you,
follow them.
Replace any CAUTION, WARNING, DANGER, or instruction safety decal that is not readable or is missing.
Location of such decals are shown in this booklet.
Do not attempt to operate this equipment under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Review the safety instructions with all users annually.
This equipment is dangerous to children and persons unfamiliar with its operation. The operator should be a
responsible adult familiar with farm machinery and trained in this equipment’s operations.
Do not allow persons
to operate or assemble this unit until they have read this manual and have developed a thorough under-
standing of the safety precautions and of how it works.

over, remove or deface any safety signs or warning decals on your equipment. Observe all safety signs and
