SAFETY
SIGNAL WORDS
FIGURE 1: Signal words designate a degree or level of
hazard seriousness.
DANGER: indicates an imminent hazard which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This
signal word is limited to the most extreme situations,
typically for machine components that, for functional
purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING: indicates a potential hazard which, 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 potential hazard which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may
also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
FIGURE 2: Important and Note
IMPORTANT: This is used to draw attention to specific
information that is necessary for the operation,
setup, or service of the system.
NOTE: This is used for additional information that can
help understand or operate the system.
SAFETY SIGNS
FIGURE 3: The HCS aligned its provisions with the
United Nations’ Globally Harmonized System (GHS)
Classification and Labeling of Chemicals in 2012. This
is a GHS safety label example for a chemical hazard.
These labels and safety messages warn all personnel
about hazardous chemicals or potentially unsafe
chemical conditions that may exist while working around
agricultural application equipment.
CapstanAG add-on application systems for OEM and
retrofit agricultural application equipment (booms and
toolbars) may contain HCS pictographs and GHS safety
labels and safety signal word messages.

PRESSURIZED FLUID LINES
Do not heat by welding, soldering, or using a torch near pressurized fluid lines or other flammable materials.
Pressurized lines can accidentally burst when too much heat is present
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Wear close fitting clothing and the correct personal protective equipment (PPE) for the job. See the manufacturer’s
manual or other information for correct PPE.
BATTERY SAFETY
Use the procedure in the appropriate agricultural equipment manual for connecting, disconnecting, and jump-starting
the machine’s battery.
Keep sparks and flames away from the battery. Battery gas can explode and cause serious injury. Do not smoke in the
battery charging area.
Remove jewelry, which might make electrical contact and create sparks.
CHEMICAL SAFETY
Chemicals used in agricultural applications can be harmful to your health and/or the environment if not used correctly.
Always follow all label directions for effective, safe, and legal use of agricultural chemicals.
EMERGENCY SAFETY
Fire extinguishing systems must meet the applicable OSHA requirements, and all users of portable/fixed fire
suppression equipment must know the types, limitations, and proper uses of this equipment; including hazards involved
with incipient stage firefighting.
Keep emergency numbers for doctors, ambulance service, hospital, and fire department near your telephone.
Know the location of fire extinguishers and first aid kits and how to use them.
Inspect the fire extinguisher and service the fire extinguisher regularly.
Follow the recommendations on the instructions plate.
Very small fires can be put out (extinguished) with a fire extinguisher. Use an appropriate method to extinguish a fire
(water for paper fires, and chemical extinguishers for electrical or chemical fires.
