which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
•
WARNING
indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
•
CAUTION
indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.

DANGER or WARNING safety signs
are located near spe-
cific hazards. General precautions are listed on
CAUTION

.
• Some safety signs don’t use any of the designated signal
words above after the safety alert symbol are occasionally
used on this machine.
•
To avoid confusing machine protection with personal safety
messages, a signal word

chine.

of information.
