Manual Before Operating this Machine
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions.
This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of impor-
tance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that
safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper
accident prevention measures.

if safe moving methods
are not used. To be safe,
get assistance, use safe
lifting methods, and use
power equipment that
is rated for at least 500
lbs. to move the shipping
crate and machine.

tailstock and steady rest from the machine,
then position the right lifting strap and the
carriage as far to the right as possible (refer
Carriage Controls on Page 19 for detailed

The Model G4000 is a
heavy machine. Serious
personal injury may occur
if safe moving methods
are not used. To be safe,
get assistance, use safe
lifting methods, and use
power equipment that
is rated for at least 500
lbs. to move the shipping
crate and machine.
