For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction
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 importance
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.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in death or serious injury.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about
proper operation of the machine.

Moving & Placing
Base Unit
This is an extremely heavy machine. Serious
personal injury may occur if safe moving
methods are not followed. To be safe, you
will need assistance and a forklift or a hoist
when removing the machine from the crate.
Use a chain or a lifting strap with a minimum
of 1,000 lbs. lifting capacity. If the chain or
lifting strap breaks, serious personal injury
may occur.
