1.0 MEANING OF SAFETY SIGNAL WORDS
A safety related message is identified by a safety alert symbol and a signal word to indicate the level of risk involved with a particular
hazard. Per ANSI Z535.6, the definitions of the four signal words are as follows:
2.0 SAFETY
3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
The Task Force Tips HURRICANE Monitor is a simple, yet effective, fixed location master stream device available in manual and RC
versions.

DANGER
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
CAUTION
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor
or moderate injury.
NOTICE
NOTICE is used to address practices not related to physical injury.
DANGER
An inadequate supply of pressure and/or flow will cause an ineffective stream and can result
in injury or death. Choose operating conditions to deliver adequate fire suppression. See flow
graphs.
WARNING
Injury or damage can occur from an inadequately supported monitor. The mounting must be
capable of supporting the nozzle reaction force which can be as high as 1500 lbs.
WARNING
The stream exiting a nozzle is very powerful and capable of causing injury and property damage.
Make sure the nozzle is securely attached and pointing in a safe direction before water is turned on.
Do not direct water stream to cause injury or damage to persons or property.
WARNING
Equipment may be damaged if frozen while containing significant amounts of water. Such damage
may be difficult to detect visually. Subsequent pressurization can lead to injury or death. Any time
the equipment is subject to possible damage due to freezing, it must be tested and approved for
use by qualified personnel before being considered safe for use.
WARNING
On many vehicle installations, the monitor is the highest point on the apparatus. Damage or injury
could occur if there is not sufficient clearance to safely pass under doors or overhead obstructions.
Always check parked position of the monitor before moving.
CAUTION
The electric drives are current limited but may still produce enough force to cause injury. To avoid
injury from a moving monitor:
• Be aware that the monitor may be remotely operated
• Keep hands and fingers away from pinch points on the monitor
• Never operate the manual override while electric controls are in operation
