YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
The Safety Alert Symbol identifies important safety messages
on the Wallenstein Wood Processor and in the manual.
When you see this symbol, be alert to the possibility of
personal injury or death. Follow the instructions in the safety
message.
2.2 Signal Words
The signal words
DANGER
,
WARNING
and
CAUTION
determine
the seriousness level of the warning messages in this manual.
The appropriate signal word for each message in this manual
has been selected using the following guidelines:
DANGER –
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided,
will
result in death or serious 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 serious 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.
IMPORTANT
– To avoid confusing equipment protection with
personal safety messages, a signal word IMPORTANT indicates
a situation that if not avoided, could result in damage to the
machine.
