the main concerns in designing and developing
a machine. However, every year many accidents
occur which could have been avoided by a few
seconds of thought and a more careful approach
to handling equipment. You, the operator, can
avoid many accidents by observing the following
precautions in this section. To avoid personal in-
jury or death, study the following precautions and
insist those working with you, or for you, follow
them.
2. In order to provide a better view, certain photo-
graphs or illustrations in this manual may show an
assembly with a safety shield removed. However,
equipment should never be operated in this con-
dition. Keep all shields in place. If shield removal
becomes necessary for repairs, replace the shield
prior to use.

The types of safety signs and locations on the equipment are shown in the illustrations that follow. Good safety
requires that you familiarize yourself with the various Safety Signs, the type of warning and the area, or particu-
lar function related to that area, that requires your SAFETY AWARENESS.
• Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!
REMEMBER - If Safety Signs have been damaged, removed, become illegible or parts replaced without safety
signs, new signs must be applied. New safety signs are available from your authorized dealer.
