SAFETY RULES
Personal Safety
Any person working on or around a machine must
be aware of all known safety hazards. Personal
safety and the continued safe operation of the
machine should be your top priority.
Read each procedure thoroughly. This
manual and the decals on the machine
use signal words to identify the following:
Safety alert symbol—used to alert
personnel to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all safety
messages that follow this symbol
to avoid possible injury or death.
Red—used to indicate the
presence of an imminently
hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
Orange—used to indicate the
presence of a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
Yellow with safety alert symbol—
used to indicate the presence of a
potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may cause
minor or moderate injury.
Yellow without safety alert
symbol—used to indicate the
presence of a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in property
damage.
Green—used to indicate operation
or maintenance information.
Be sure to wear protective eye wear and other
protective clothing if the situation warrants
it.
Be aware of potential crushing hazards
such as moving parts and free swinging or
unsecured components when lifting or
placing loads. Always wear approved
steel-toed shoes.
Workplace Safety
Be sure to keep sparks, flames and lighted
tobacco away from flammable and
combustible materials such as battery
gases and engine fuels. Always have an
approved fire extinguisher within easy reach.
Be sure that all tools and working areas are
properly maintained and ready for use.
Keep work surfaces clean and free of
debris that could get into machine
components and cause damage.
Be sure that your workshop or work area
is properly ventilated and well lit.
Be sure any forklift, overhead crane or other lifting
or supporting device is fully capable of
supporting and stabilizing the weight to be
lifted. Use only chains or straps that are in
good condition and of ample capacity.
Be sure that fasteners intended for one time use
(i.e., cotter pins and self-locking nuts) are
not reused. These components may fail if
they are used a second time.
Be sure to properly dispose of old oil or
other fluids. Use an approved container.
Please be environmentally safe .
